My stereotypical impressions of coders has now been reinforced, thanks!

BTW, this story was removed in the last Aperture update. I wonder if some project manager found out about it, and phreaked.
There are also references to various PowerPC and x86 chips in there, but I don't know what it all means. Any programmers had a look?

You got that with strings?
you just have to declare a constant NSString with the special operator @"" (e.g.: @"Hello!") and it will be in the binary, and you will be able to read the text using strings.

I am not surprised, programmers are the weird end of the nerd scale.

Looks like text generated from one of those random story generators. I think there was a story a while back about some pranks at MIT where they got a story published by submitting an article that just sounded technical, but it really didn't make any sense.

That, or it could just be a funny-things-that-were-said-around-the-office-while-coding-Aperture kind of scrapbook.

Let me ask you all a question. How would you vent your frustrations without letting your boss know about it and at the same time allowing all the right people to get the message?
Camouflage your thoughts by burying it in a of ocean of meaningless sentences. You get to retaliate against your boss who may have possibly chewed your ass out for debuting a software that wasn't actually spectacular and you get to keep your job at the end of the day.
I seem to remember reading about MS programmers doing something similar. Leaving behind notes to one another buried inside the program's code.

Well, whatever happened, it's now gone with the last update. A big loss, to be sure.

Thank you Eug Wanker for sharing this! This is great. I think I can actually figure out what he's talking about. Whoever wrote this seems like a really cool person. "You have a comma in you colon?" Hahaha! Genius!

Programers need love too, though it appears as if some are not getting any.

Are you volunteering for the job?

I imagine these are the comments from various parts of the program. All the comments must have somehow got dumped into this resource...
(such as the "every time I come in here the cursor is bigger, it probably means there were some strange cursor behavior in testing)

Or they were using some sort of heavy drugs.

Hehe as long as its not 100 programmers leaving books, I couldn't care less. But if those notes start adding MB to the program when in memory it would start to bug me as I have limited Ram resources in my Mac

Eug, you act like the terms "programmers" and "deranged" aren't already inexorably tied together. One reason I didn't stay active in coding after I got my BS was the way other coders seemed to behave, well, oddly. More oddly than they did while students, and that's saying something!
