Computer Science vs. Software Engineering
theodp writes "Microsoft's promotion of Julie Larson-Green to lead all Windows software and hardware engineering in the wake of Steven Sinofsky's resignation is reopening the question of what is the difference between Computer Science and Software Engineering. According to their bios on Microsoft's website, Sinofsky has a master's degree in computer science from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and an undergraduate degree with honors from Cornell University, while Larson-Green has a master's degree in software engineering from Seattle University and a bachelor's degree in business administration from Western Washington University. A comparison of the curricula at Sinofsky's and Larson-Green's alma maters shows there's a huge difference between UMass's MSCS program and Seattle U's MSE program. So, is one program inherently more compatible with Microsoft's new teamwork mantra?"
The first mistake he made, is the include statement. The stdio.h was between brackets so slashdot saw it as an unrecognized html-tag and dumped it, it seems.
As far as the defines go:
FUCK YOU -> SUCK MY DICK DUMB BITCH -> void main() { printf("fuck you); }
So he did also forgot a an end quote in the printf statement. And, depending on the compiler, it might also complain about main not returning an int value. So while it might not compile the first time, the bugs are easily fixed as the intent is obvious.
All in all this is bad coding style, I give it a 4/20 (points mainly come from using descriptive macro names).
PS: My professional deformation might be getting a bit out of control.

hahahaha you still haven't fixed that bug on line 5... can you at least indent it so you don't look like a total douchebag rather than pasting the same bug-ridden formatting in every one of these posts
