I feel really, really happy today.  I started my new (intern) job at Wal-Mart ISD in the ACSM.  Don't ask me what the acronym stands for, something like "Automated Customer Service Machines."  Basically I work with the other members of the team on all the kiosks in the Wal-Mart stores that the customers can go up to and poke.  Gift registry, photolab, giftcard, and etc.

I get my own cubicle and EVERYTHING.  Though I don't have any programs on my computer station yet, so I have to do all my code in Notepad.  I also spend my time using Outlook to message my friends who are also interning at different levels.

I assume that soon my enthusiasm for being a programmer will level off and drop some, but I am content till then.

I know the difference between the two.  :p  I've programmed in both.  VB is very easy overall, hence the noobishness.

Less noobish than Javascript and HTML  
 

HTML yeah.  Javascript nah.


There is a difference between Javascript, and Java.

Javascript is pretty noobish. Slightly harder than HTML, but still noobish.

Java however, can be kinda challenging.

VB is pretty easy overall.

Sweeet.  What language?
 

  HTML so far.  A little lame, but when I get my programs and devkits, I will be working with Javascript and Visual Basic.


 

 VB=Cool  

 Javascript=still kinda lame.

VB = teh ebil!

JavaScript = cool, particularly if you use jQuery.

I could not program without syntax highlighting, it would be like writing in a dark room with sunglasses on.

Walmart is evil, I prefer working with the sea instead.
