I'm new here

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

I'm new here

Post by dude101 »

I'm getting tired of a world of script kiddies. I love writing low level code and after I browsed this web site I realized that this community is just what I need.

Hi everyone!!

Have fun,

Welcome!

This is definitely the place to break away from script-kiddyness. :)
But don't think you'll be able to get away without scripting... you'll probably script more now than you would have been being a script-kiddy.

hum, brynet, *cough cough* lol..

But seriously, lets hope you know some assembly and some other mid-level language(C, pascal, C++ according to some people.. )

Also, read the wiki first!! and you can try http://osdever.net it isn't updated often.. but it has some good tutorials and documents on it.

Yes, I'm new too. I love writing low-level code as well, and it doesn't get much more low-level than OS development.

Don't worry, I'm an embedded system programmer by profession. I write low level drivers so I "breath" C. And we only use raw C, no libraries.

Breathing C is the bomb. It's my new drug. I do a ton of it each day, forget about cocain.lmfaol. :twisted:
