I'm bored and this reply satisfies me but the pdp11 part, I expected more.
That reads similarly to how UNIX became popular.
Close but it's mainly corporate shit, the concept that sconix is anything like that is smoke and mirrors only elevating and giving credit to something that isn't. The switches and hipsters were always real.
All, bravely forging, working on improving c and wanting to use c, pdp11.
Epic. It's out of frustration and doesn't get far past a incomplete hobby project for the competent that aren't completely desensitised but this optimism is amasing to even exist as sarcasm.
There are complete operating systems with new esoteric languages that have their own toolchains separate from sconix so I might not be giving enough credit here but esoteric languages are usually interpreters in an interpreted language.
This is like when people use vi because it's everywhere.
That's their reason, this is a good comparison. If they had more reasons like wanting to use comfortable shoes they would either be working on crafting comfortable shoes with the broken tools they had or using comfortable shoes. Even better forging better tools from the start, instead of losing all ten pointers.
Also, why the fuck is every programming discussion turned into projects and other corporate shit
Like you are complaining now they complain in some way about corporate shit, talking about it is unloading. This doesn't apply to all programming discussions but the institutionalisation uses scheme for part of the courses now, you won't get that purity here. It's more likely befunge or piasco will provide more immunity from anything corporate.
Don't pretend a hobby with self-imposed deadlines were being discussed.
What was being discussed is why is gc feared not a hobby with self imposed deadlines, I gave broad theoretical examples and nonexistent philosophies, which that one was corporate shit not a hobby and probably doesn't apply to anyone here but I'm starting to wonder.
Why can't I program just for enjoyment?
I get bothered in real life why I don't take software engineering as a job or go through the mill, this is my venting. I consider myself shit at it but still do it for fun.
