Hardcode coder is an oxymoron; coders are the ones attending an 8-week bootcamp then cutting and pasting Javascript from Stackoverflow. Hacker is probably what you mean.

Yeah, that's the connotation I was trying to avoid, that's what I was talking about...

>It used to be that your computer had a compiler, and editor, and a shell, and you would go to work, writing code.

By "hardcore coder" I just mean someone who thinks ^that^ sounds like a lot of fun.

And it does sound like a lot of fun.. I just prefer to be able to augment it with StackOverflow/Google :)
