They wouldn't ask you for that info, they already have it.

I'm asking for this info as a mortal, I want to meet up with some /prog/riders and show them my ultraoptimized fibs.

I have one for your amusement. We did work for a company that had a decades old COBOL clone for a front end language. They had invested millions in code written in this language, and couldn't afford to throw everything away and start over, so they had us write what I guess you would call a runtime that read the compiled NOT-COBOL and carried out the instructions using relatively modern technology. For example, HTTP didn't exist when the program was written, so we rewrote the communications components to use that. Is that ENTERPRISE enough for you?

we need 21 or so bits of identifying information to find you among everyone else that lives, what's the harm in leaking a few of those?
If you merely answer the questions, there's no writing patterns or connections to any that people can utilise to find where you've written elsewhere, and thus attain more information on you.
If you are the only Scheme fan in say Dilli, East Timor, then perhaps you have a problem on your hands and someone will find your userpage on the internet.
From there, it's a question of what do they do next?
Probably not a lot. /prog/'s collection of various insane and unstable people are not the type to hunt and track you down just for the sheer heck of it.
Unless you're a PHP fan.

Actually, all I need is either an IP address (which I got), or the an email address. More than likely I have you mapped, wiretapped, or will do in the next 24 hours.

See, now you've leaked a fair few identifying bits of your own.
For example we've narrowed down your person to being one of <1,000,000 in the world who works in the five eyes system.
Your poor grammar indicates either lack of education, sleep or attention. Uninspiring zalgo text shows complacency, or usage of crap online generators, with no drive to find one that is better. You'd better hope with a lax attitude like that, that your superior is managing your security.

As such, it's likely you don't work at RAF Menwith or Pine Gap or [unspecified storage shed #15], and you're just being a cool roleplayer.
Ultimately that means IHBT.

Oh god. Do they not properly wire cables in Geogia? Worse yet label them? We use sewers and post/lanterns to affix cables. If we need to go through urban areas, we always mark them by the roads.

By following the pattern, I'd say Philly or Pennsylvania. By using the position as input, I'd say any of the [4 dangerous] cities in California.

I would be proud if it was true that you worked and favored Pico, PostScript(not so much, but its the new printing and CNC standard), Prolog, Ada.

Just for fun. I really only use Python, though mapping things out in pseudocode is a huge help sometimes. I used Pascal (and C++) for a couple years in high school. I took AP Computer Science in the last year before the test switched from C++ to Java. That fucking test killed my interest in programming for almost a decade.

Job Position, placement, or title. IoW, taking into consideration your occupation. L.A. CA. really? That's almost anticlimactic. I just learned I am also on the top 4 most populated cities, lol.

I had neraly the same experience, but not the same attitude:
Basic, Java, then ANSI C. I was too motivated to give up. Have not regretted it:

Not LA. Wrong top 4... And unfortunately I'm not anything more than an amateur Internet adult media critic. My real job title is more along the lines of 'Precious metals and collectibles dealer.'

I think my problem was that I never had any real motivation to continue programming, even though I enjoyed it. I didn't have any sort of goal in mind. Full language progression would be Basic, Pascal, C++, PHP, Python.

There are many interesting things to do. Do you not have personal itches you would like to scratch, like shitty file managers or unreliable/not secure communication protocols? Would you not like to make a dream come true, like the distBB? Did you not want to make games when you were younger?
