Stanford Offers Cocoa Class
An anonymous reader writes "Back in the early 90's Stanford University offered a class on Objective-C for students interested in writing applications for NeXTSTEP. After a long hiatus it appears that class will be offered again as CS193E, 'Object-oriented User Interface Programming.' It will be covering the Apple development tools, Objective-C, Foundation and AppKit, and Quartz. Any other schools out there planning or already offering Objective-C courses?"
Why is there a class teaching a specific language and development tools?
Would it not be better to teach the students HOW to program well, and let them implement the concepts in the language of their choice? Perhaps doing a "Language of your choice, but you can't use the same language twice" kinda thing.
They would learn OOP, learn how to learn another language, and perhaps actually understand how an algorithm works instead of coping it from the text book in the language that the book goes over.
What I wonder about is how this class, if taken, will effect the volume and odour of my bowel expungings. C++ yields a slightly sharp, earthy smell, and the consistency of refrigerated peanut butter. I like these results, for it makes for satisfactory PLURPS! of the turd into the bowl, and the wiping action, while not squeaky clean, usually extracts a few moderate smears of poo, absent of any chunks, blood, or hair.
If Obj-C softens the consistency at all, then (a) the torrent of semi-liquid shit won't allow for a satisfying dollop of water to be deposited on the old browneye when the log breaks the water surface, and wiping is bound to be a hellacious mess akin to wiping bean with bacon soup off of a blinking, twitching eye.
I would like to have this info before I decide to take this class or not.
But the real question *I* have for the poster is WHY did you post this this comment under the subject line: gay linux fanboys love the frosty pisshole FP FP? Your comment had *nothing* to do with the subject line
Because it trips up mouthbreathing idiots like you, and forces you to wonder aloud like a motherfucking idiot how the subject line relates to the comment.
And BTW: you DO love the frosty pisshole, now don'tcha?
I am a homosexual. I bought an Apple computer because of its well earned reputation for being "the" gay computer. Since I have become an Apple owner, I have been exposed to a whole new world of gay friends. It is really a pleasure to meet and compute with other homos such as myself. I plan on using my new Apple computer as a way to entice and recruit young schoolboys into the homosexual lifestyle; it would be so helpful if you could produce more software which would appeal to young boys. Thanks in advance.
with much gayness,
Father Randy "Pudge" O'Day, S.J.
Thanks for your letter. Being Catholic myself, I know exactly what you're talking about! It has always been our plan here at Apple Computer Inc to revolutionize personal computing with our high-quality and highly gay products.
I'm happy to answer your letter by letting you know that YES we will be releasing an entire hLife ("homo-life") software line. You'll be able to recognize it in stores by the small stylized logo depicting a large cock entering a tight anus with an Apple logo on it. ("Suddenly it all comes together" indeed!).
Anyway, I hope you and other members of our community will join us on our mission, and purchase the exciting new hLife boxed set. Only the boxed set comes with translucent cock rings!
Sincerely,
Harry Rodman
