...and today, Nvidia ships self-immolating graphics cards because nobody wanted to figure out how to design a safe electric connector.
> Oh, you young people are so spoiled with your IDEs and whatnot, real men code in a text editor.
...and today, a lot of so-called programmers are trapped in AbstractHellFactorySingletonFactories that they cannot and never will understand, because generations of code monkeys have abused IDE assistance to dig themselves deeper into their hole.
And as a user, you'll know, because the software they write is garbage and never works reliably.
> Then it was about frameworks. BBbbut what if your framework breaks, what do you do then, if you don't know the underlying whatever?
Going by software like Teams, or Slack: They just ignore it, because consumers can't fight back against the the enshittification of increasingly useless software nobody understands.
