A programmer named "Stack". I've known a few who were named "Pascal" and one that dated "Pearl, but never have I encountered a Stack before :P

If he were really Hungarian, he'd be called tchrSzijj. Of course, Microsoft would have called him prsnSzijj.

That's not hungarian notation at all, it's name-mangling! His real name is Dr. std::s (..., int, unsigned int, unsigned int)!@cconroy said:

But to make you happy:
Stack popped.

He trashed his return address too. Classic Stack error.

Was he known for having STD's?

Rumor has it part of his issue was that he got replaced by an H-1B and/or was having difficulty finding work because of the importing of low-wage foreigners.
