    Oh great you’re one of them. Look I can’t magically infuse tech literacy into you, you’ll have to learn to program and, crucially, understand how much programming is not about giving computers instructions.

      Let’s talk in five years. There’s no point in discussing this right now. You’re set on what you believe you know and I’m set on what I believe I know.

      And, piece of advice, don’t assume others lack tech literacy because they don’t agree with you, it just makes you look like a brat that can’t discuss things maturely and invites the other part to be a prick as well.

      Especially because programming is quite fucking literally giving computers instructions, despite what you believe keyboard monkeys do. You wanker!

      What? You think “developers” are some kind on mythical beings that possess the mystical ability of speaking to the machines in cryptic tongues?

      They’re a dime a dozen, the large majority of “developers” are just cannon fodder that are not worth what they think they are.

      Ironically, the real good ones probably brought about their demise.

        First off, you’re contradicting yourself: Is programming about “giving instructions in cryptic languages”, or not?

        Then, no: Developers are mythical beings who possess the magical ability of turning vague gesturing full of internal contradictions, wishful thinking, up to right-out psychotic nonsense dreamt up by some random coke-head in a suit, into hard specifications suitable to then go into algorithm selection and finally into code. Typing shit in a cryptic language is the easy part, also, it’s not cryptic, it’s precise.

          You must be a programmer. Can’t understand shit of what you’re told to do and then blame the client for “not knowing how it works”. Typical. Stereotypical even!

          Read it again moron, or should I use an LLM to make it simpler for your keyboard monkey brain?
