If you don't count playing Darkfall Online 12 hours a day + taking a summer course in game design at half pace. First summer I have been semi-free since high school though so I think I deserved it  In a few weeks ill start my fifth year as a CS-major which I should be done with soon I guess.Last three summers I have done some programming jobs for Saab (Defense/Aerospace company, not the cars). Have never had a real full time job. | ||

I'm actually pretty lazy when it comes to keeping track of new technology. I'm a J2EE developer and our clients mostly stay on the same old architecture, that's why we're still using Java 1.4.2  | ||

We're also still on 1.4.2 also D= (1.4+1.5 was installed on my machine so in my first small project I used generics and then the other guy was like "this doesn't compile?"). My dev team laughed when we got an email from higher ups saying "1.5 is in EOL, please make sure your applications are 1.6 compliant" or some such email. | ||

funny thing is that it pays better, is way more fun (socially), and I've gotten laid more times in 1 1/2 year as a bartender than in 5 years working in IT... I heard most fulltime software developer have to use all their free time keeping up to date, is it true? Not always true, but that is kind of the same for any career besides civil service work (police, fire, etc.). If you're a software developer you like that stuff anyway and should be so lucky to be able to do it all the time. I'm sure there are people who would say "ew so I have to play starcraft for hours every day!?" ...yea that would be real hell cough cough. | ||
