How to please a girl-programmer

If programmers have some preferences as to girl-programmers, girl-programmers do have it too. 

What kind of guy will be pleasant to girl-programmer?

1. Appearance – the first thing people notice.

For girl-programmers, unlike the majority of girls, the way how the boy looks like is not very important, the main thing is not to be dressed in narrow jeans and a pink vest, like the one Justin Bieber wears. This exasperates and sets in not a very positive perception of the person. Next just a personal preference is going, nobody can guess. But still, the guy must be at least a little bit nice.

2. The way the guy talks.

Speech should be clear. Not in sense that you need to distinctly pronounce each letter, it is necessary to form a logical proposals, each of which must have a meaning. It must be clear that you have an analytical mind and algorithmic thinking. You can try to make jokes. Girls-programmers love guys with a good sense of humor. But only with good. If you are unsure, it is better to remain silent. If a guy is a break - he has no chance.

3. The way he looks.

Any person, who wants to make friends with girl-programmer, must have smart eyes. She should realize that you understand what she is talking about.

4. Become a friend.

This is the main part. To make friends with girl-programmer, it is necessary to have common topics with her, to make her interested by your side. The easiest way to do this is to be a programmer. Girl-programmer is always talking about programming, and if it will be something to tell, and you will not generally understand what the talk was about, she will just find someone else to talk about programming with. If it suits you, it is enough just to be a pleasant person, smart in some other field of endeavor. But the main thing is to be smart.

5. The way he behaves.

The guy must have a character. There must always be an opinion on any situation. He must have a strong inner rod. He should be able to make decisions, to properly evaluate the risks. It is important for the views of life to be similar. Though girl-programmer is a programmer, but still stays some kind of a girl, that’s why she needs somebody to trust and to feel safe with.

6. You must be on an equal footing.

Girl-programmer is a kind of person that cannot fully obey someone. So you have to be as an equal with her, or at least you should make such an illusion. The guy shouldn’t earn less than the girl-programmer. If he's a smart man, he will manage. 

7. The major.

It must be a pleasure to be with you. You don’t have to be unique, but you must attract. Girl programmer should be interested. There must be some highlight which will hook.

8. If you are a programmer and you:

Are smart, nice, kind, not boring, witty, not lazy, not greedy, don’t smoke, don’t drink, depend on computer games weakly and you will be engaged in coding with her on the weekends - you have all chances to please a girl programmer :) 

Thank you…

Thank you…

I want to tell “Thank you” to my close people, who love me. Thank you, my dear family!

Mother, Father and Sister. I don’t know what my life would have turned into without you, without your love. I always need the feeling of strong security under the sunny beams of yours. The invaluable contribution in my future cannot be estimated. Father, thank you for finding the right strategy path, for analyzing every possible variant, for directing me, for extracting unattainable programming books and resources, for making me strong and absolutely independent, really an adult person. Only you have always understood my point of view, when everybody was finding it incorrect.  Only that’s why I’m not like the others now. Mummy, thank you far your care, for attention to my feelings and mood, for caress, for great and kind desire to facilitate my life, and I’m sorry that I do not always take your point of view, but I know, that you want everything the best for me. Sister :) The only my friend. She is like a peace of oxygen under the water, like a rainbow after the rain, like something I can’t live without. She is the person, who has my full trust and never really abuse.  Love you!

Love of my life

I have two things in my life that I really love. This is my family, especially sister. I would have never become so strong inside without her. The second thing is programming. It helps me to reveal. It is the most pleasant thing in the world, with the help of which you can even earn money. It is an immense area. Sometimes, I feel that I know so much, but really it is about in 1000 times more of unknown. But this business suits not every person. I suppose, you need a special type of character. I like this, because you can make every thing, which flies into your thoughts. The major is to have a great desire, imagination or ideas, and ability to study. You are lucky when you are surrounded with people, who share your interest, who you can talk with. They were absent for me for about six years, and sometimes it was very hard to find a solution, but when I has been guessing to how to design and realize some functionality without using the help of others – the inexpressible delight was inside me :) Now, it is simply nice to talk to somebody competent on the topic of programming. Especially to person who is engaged in problems a bit different from your area. The best valiant is the competent or parallel to yours technology. In that case you have an opportunity to compare. For example, C# and Java. Windows and Linux. Also, I have already wanted to find a person, who is highly skilled just in my area, than he maybe have opened those things for me, that I have got used to name «tricks». It is often discovered in the process of development, and always appears with some experience. I already know a lot of such tricks, but always want to learn more and more.  It happens that it is pleasant to help other programmers, when they can’t manage something, I direct them and prompt. I get some kind of moral satisfaction from it. I often help sister to study programming, but not in a way of just putting the information in her head. No. It is useless. I try to point and direct her to those moments, that she would have hardly noticed herself. I give her some samples, illustrating how does it works in a real world. Sometimes, thoughts like “what will I do if programming ceases to please to me?” come in my head. There are a lot of opportunities for me in our big world. I can teach, it is possible to be engaged in researches in computer laboratory, different variants are possible … more. But for some reason, it is frequent that I have an image in thoughts, as though I am thirty years old and I am sitting on the beach of the transparent azure ocean, the pleasant easy breeze is blowing, and I have a very tasty drink in my hand, and my notebook computer on my knees with Visual Studio launched :) But it is just dreams. And they are really can made come true.
