About


A Programmer’s Life exists due the funny/sad stories lived by programmers.

The stories here are real (or not), but all the names and some facts are changed/adapted.

I’m programmer, not a designer, so my draw is based on Vida de Suporte, a simple and great work.

This site is an english translation of Vida de Programador (published in brazilian portuguese).

Author

I’m Andre Noel, Bachelor in Computer Science and a programmer who lived (unfortunately) many stories told here.

English is not my first language, so spell/grammar mistakes are expected. Feel free to point my errors.

    Why is this feed posted to Planet Ubuntu? I love webcomics, but I don’t think the planet is the right place for it.

    Hi, I’m brazilian too and English isn’t my first language either, but I noticed some things here that could be fixed:

    “A Programmer’s Life is exists” : you should remove that “is”

    “so my draw is based” : I think “my drawing” works better here.

    do you do freelance work? I am in need of a programmer. Someone who can create a website, incorporate e-commerce and want to share in the profits when launched. I am 90% sure I can compete with ebay & amazon once site is launched. I just need the site created to get started. let me know if you want to help.
    Thank you

    Wife: Darling, you never told what you’re working on
    Programmer: It’s because my actual project is classified…
    Wife: What??? Are you saying you don’t trust me?!?
    Programmer: HUMPF… ok, I tell you…
    15 minutes later (after a “for dummies” explanation)
    Programmer: So, this is it… Got it?
    Wife: Oh, no… But I don’t care…
