Bro's legit out here thinking there's some sort of meaningful wealth redistribution instead of winner takes all for the few, abject poverty for the rest.

He's a programmer, they're not really known for their awareness outside of pretty specific problem solving.

I'm a programmer. Programmers are the way the are because of biases inherent to pre-existing wealth and historically in-demand skills / high pay. It's only a matter of time till they learn the boot of capitalism will crush them the same as any other worker.

No, everyone knows we're gonna do gardening or woodworking or something like that when we stop our programming career. Main thing is: something that's as far as possible from a computer.

Was wondering what garden leave is. 😁

I’m fixing classic cars now. If they have a computer it’s so old that there’s no danger of ROHS soldering and there aren’t even any programming ports. Just stick a sensor up the tailpipe and adjust some screws.

Is even been better for my back than sitting at a desk was.

I’ll take it.
