this kind of dismissive comments is why many apps have an awful usability. If someone thinks a web interface would be easier than a text terminal, there's at least one customer in need for a product (which either doesn't exist or they could not "googlify") - it's also why I welcome AI generating apps on the fly, "replacing" engineers who "know better" ;)
Why learn to do anything?
compilers, IDE, syntax highlighting too, everyone should learn assembly, ed, and stick to b&w
> there's at least one customer in need for a product
just because whales exist does not mean feeding them is a goal to aim for as a society. 99.9% of technology could disappear tomorrow and life would become better.
hyperbole: a lot of tech we give for granted today, started as niche products for "whales" like government agencies, so I suppose computers and Internet shouldn't exist and life would be better
> computers and Internet shouldn't exist and life would be better
I don't think that's remotely controversial
