These guys are living in the glory. I bet they don’t even know all the info they need is just in a fucking config file, in a damn manual somewhere or in the stupid docs that people doesn’t seem to bother reading anymore, or writing some decent ones.

shlubs who barely passed undergrad data structures and algorithms courses.

And that’s the problem with most people getting into IT nowadays, they expect to go to an algorithms course or a development bootcamp and come out knowing everything to make a 6 figure salary, but don’t even try to learn what a software dependency is or how to fix their dev environment and expect GPT to shlub it up, when in reality many of these old school software programmers were self learning nerds who were just trying to solve (a) problem, and spent hours doing so.

Not to mention the sense of pioneering something.

something you’re happy to spend 80+ hours a week on, especially when basic needs are taken care of.

Vs writing the same thing that already exists with a different front end, a bunch of times with different examples, because somebody who has more resources (not just more cash, but also time) decides visuals are more important than real functionality.

Part of the reason I don’t like ‘coding’ or developing software its because is so dreadful and feels overly stupid when an open source alternative works better than what you’d be able to make before the deadline.

I just rather be a CTO / SysAdmin and live happier.

Programmers of the past didn’t have to work 2 jobs to be able to buy a house and live comfortably, less alone spend most of their paycheck on inflated prices for gas, food, services, etc. But hey we got AI and Amazon Prime now.

THESE DAMN GLOBALISTS!!!

I have a X220 and a T14 Gen 2 (11th gen Intel core) and the quality is night and day. Also they introduced cheaper models like an E series, the L series and those have even worse materials or QC.

Shit man, I’m sure there’s an xkcd for that.

Generate localization strings in all requested languages with the “translate” macro without proof checking because you don’t speak Finnish or Japanese?

I tried my 3yo to use a DSi and it failed lol I’ll try in 10-12 years.

I’m a SysAdmin and I’ve met several ‘coders’ who went thru a coding bootcamp, or even went to college and don’t know about git, less alone how to use it… kinda makes me sad.

I never said it was special, but I’m glad you searched bud!

Is Linux, called linux-zen on some package managers.

But is different than the LTS Kernel, which is also different than the pre-release kernels, which are also different than the stable kernels.

So idk, “what is” Linux and what’s not, according to you.

Maybe you thinking of GNU Hurd? Or the Darwin kernel?

The PSP was launched in 2004, could be connected to your TV and even could be used to play on the PS3, so yeah is as versatile as a touch screen PSP.

only 10$ to upgrade

a game you have.

Jeez, what a good deal, so I didn’t own shit to begin with and now I have to pay 10 bucks to get “an upgrade” that I won’t own either.

We won’t own shit and we will be happily serving our overlords, right?

To be honest, the majority of people buying a Switch 2 is gonna be parents with children, and nostalgia suckers.

The Linux kernel remains pretty much the same

So you’ve never tried the Zen Kernel?

Damn I remember hearing this a lot like 15 years ago.

¿No nos volvería lentos y flojonazos? (not a real word if you translate, more like slang meaning to be really lazy)

It won’t take too long for them to invent the porn machine.
