Well first you need a live chicken and some programing books, a special wood (explained later).

Kill the chicken by cutting its throat and collect the blood in a bowl. Tear its feathers and take the biggest one (usualy on the wings).

Pull out some of its bones and burn them in a fire made from a tree that was growing for 10 years and a day on a grave of a criminal hanged for his crimes. When you burn the chickens bones, grind them to dust.

Boil the dust in some of the chicken blood (dont use all of the blood) in a black iron cauldron over the fire from the hanged man tree. The chared remains of blood and bones is then turned to dust again by grinding it.

For especialy good results grind the blood and bones with a skull of a black jaguar, that has been kept on a ash of a burned witch for 22 years and 22 days. The ashes must not be spoiled by water.

After you have the dust and some fresh blood (you must mix it constantly so it doesnt coagulate) take one of the feathers and use it to draw the symbols of the demon of knowledge on the books and your forehead, and then sprinkle the dust over that blood so it stick to your head and the books.

Mutter a prayer to Cthulu (but do not mention his name 3 times, or you will be taken away from this world) and spend the night with your head on the books. In the morning the books will dissapear, and depending on how well you did the ritual you will remember them. For a extra benefit, do the ritual on the night of the full moon with a amethyst necklace on our neck.

There, thats how all good programers got their skills. Ask Nihil
