being a programmer at an ad company makes you work "in advertising" in the same way that being a programmer at a hospital means you work "in medicine" ie not at all

i worked at an ad agency for a while and it was pretty wild, but i'm glad that i no longer have to describe my job as "a necessary evil"

the funniest thing that ever happened at the ad co that I was aware of - other than the guy who quit in a huff because HR told him he couldn't bring his poorly trained dog to work any more after it poo poo on the rug and bit two people - was when we were doing a new ad campaign for a very large company and we sent off a demo of the new ad unit with lorem ipsum because we hadnt gotten the copy from them yet and whateveer agency they were using got back to us with "we love the new unit, but we'd like to see a version that isnt in spanish" Hand to god. Saw the email myself.

yeah i feel like carmack has been coasting for decades now. Which is as it should be, if i had that guys money i'd never touch a computer again as long as i lived, but the idea that he has some weird repuation to protect or whatever seems off to me. Dude got real rich and seemed to be a good programmer, those guys arent really in short supply around here.
