[stub for offtopicness]

(I swapped the title for the subtitle earlier because I thought it was more informative. What I missed was the flamebaity effect that "the old way" would have. Obvious in hindsight!)



Remember the old days of our youth, i.e. last week Monday, when we still wrote code by hand?


Well when the fashions change, the old ways are “old fashioned” but only literally


I can't tell if OP is satire... I've just seen so many unhiged takes that this article reads completely in line with the discourse...


Taking 3 months off from work to do program some basic stuff is already kind of disconnected from reality.


> "coding the old way"

You mean the way that the majority of code is still written by professionals?
