fredrf15248ySee it this way: He found a website that could be helpfull and didn't keep to himself. He shared.
But I see your point. A "dev" who doesn't know SO?! -
you mean he graduated, and got a job, without ever going to SO?!? he's that good??!
-
I myself graduated (albeit took longer than most) and got a job without ever even knowing about stackoverflow
-
veshsare3128y@fredrf I think this is actually very nice from him. I didn't know SO before getting graduate.

bondman2448yis it just me or are there others who used experts exchange prior to SO? the transition was smooth once experts exchange became a paid membership
-
Is it just me or are junior devs portrayed as total idiots on here? Just wondering
-
@liammartens nope, they are. We laugh at the sheer stupidity that tends to stem from the inexperienced
-
rozzzly16718y@sylar congratulations, you must have asked an interesting question which warranted subjective answers... SO doesn't take kindly to those.
-
@liveCoder me too buddy. Took 12 years but they were the best 12 damn years of my life. Anyone remember sourceforge? Ewwww.

@Jumpshot44, today I got to tell my colleagues about this awesome community! Yey

it is funny, nowadays you can score a job by just saying that you know stack overflow and GitHub lol
On his first week at job, the junior says:
Hey guys! Check out this new website I found! You'll thank me later.
