Rocketblog: The Nerd Handbook

+ The Nerd Handbook

I don't agree with many things in "The Nerd Handbook" but it's worth taking a look at the opinion of "Rands in Response".

Here's a little excerpt: "Understand your nerd’s relation to the computer. It’s clichéd, but a nerd is defined by his computer, and you need to understand why.

First, a majority of the folks on the planet either have no idea how a computer works or they look at it and think “it’s magic”. Nerds know how a computer works. They intimately know how a computer works. When you ask a nerd, “When I click this, it takes awhile for the thing to show up. Do you know what’s wrong?” they know what’s wrong."
