[–] raamdev 17y ago ↗ Awesome read (and I voted it up again), but this has been here before:http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=370874 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=365094 [–] Goladus 17y ago ↗ I actually came looking for those posts the other day and couldn't find them. [–] raamdev 17y ago ↗ When I saw this submission, I remembered seeing it a few months earlier so I tried using searchyc.com to find it. I had no luck, so I tried Google. Got it in one shot ("How to be a Programmer" site:news.ycombinator.com). [–] chengmi 17y ago ↗ Gah! Thanks for the tip. There's a bug relating to quotes on SearchYC and "how to be a" are all stopwords or ranked very low in relevance.http://searchyc.com/programmer+short+comprehensive+personal+...
