Anyone? If I'm working on something that's complicated or frustrating I tend to pull at my left earlobe. Now it's a little stretched and visibly larger than the other one. I'm thinking about getting one of those plastic cones you put on dogs to stop them licking their stitches.
Not for that activity, no, but I'm prone to rock back and forth out of the blue like an autistic person, or something.
I do have a tendency to say "Hmm!" quite a lot. And when others are around, this is often met with a quizzical "What?" in response, which can be sort of annoying when you're trying to concentrate.
Code:#include <cmath> #include <complex> bool euler_flip(bool value) { return std::pow ( std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), std::complex<float>(0, 1) * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0) *(1 << (value + 2))) ).real() < 0; }
I think they are all involuntary but normal body language to convey stress. [I scratch my head a lot when something is frustrating me while coding].

No programming language is perfect. There is not even a single best language; there are only languages well suited or perhaps poorly suited for particular purposes.

I tend to stick my tongue out when I concentrate. I don't think I do that while coding, though.
Heh, me too. I tend to rock when I try to concentrate, coding requires me to type (often at a decent pace), which requires me sit still, well, somewhat still anyway.Not for that activity, no, but I'm prone to rock back and forth out of the blue like an autistic person, or something.
I used to have a wooden chair to sit in (don't get me wrong, the seat had a butt shape carved in it, it was quite confortable for a wooded chair), but rocking it back on 2 legs and then forward again put to much stress on it, you could hear it creak and sometimes a faint crack (it was older), I would've eventually broken it.
But now I have a real office chair, so no more than a little squeaking occures.

I just crack my knuckles and growl.

Usually some frustrated phrases, like "are you kidding me?", esp. when reading MSDN...
long time; /* know C? */
Unprecedented performance: Nothing ever ran this slow before.
Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.

The best way to accelerate an IBM is at 9.8 m/s/s.

Stop trying to swear on the boards.
1. You are not good at it.
2. It's against the forum guidelines.
Define "good at it"?
Effectiously using the words.Define "good at it"?
Both words you use, don't hardly effect the severity of the sentence, near as much as those words can. Soo... you're not good at.
Oh come on now guys. It wasn't really done in bad taste, and besides...it was quite funny, actually.
Code:#include <cmath> #include <complex> bool euler_flip(bool value) { return std::pow ( std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), std::complex<float>(0, 1) * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0) *(1 << (value + 2))) ).real() < 0; }
Jeez, someone's been listening to too much NPR! It was meant to be an accurate statement of fact, not a work of creative literature. I half-swore and I'm sorry *sniff*! But let's not use this whole dreadful incident as excuse to put our pomp hats on now
They can't swear on NPR either. $250 000 fine if you swear on American radio!
But it's okay, Sharke. I'm guessing you were actually born in NYC...the natives here can't swear for ......... They are so polite it's almost funny; meanwhile all these rich out of state types just move in and take all their ......... It's ........in' sad dude. Then they get a whee bit miffed and think it's a ........in' riot or some .........
