Most of today's software is a rehash of crap we already had. It's just the dumb clients render HTML instead of cursor positions and ansi colors now. And the smart clients are smaller.

That is a frightening thing to read. Just because you don't appreciate music doesn't mean you can dismiss out of hand its cultural value. I would rather live in a world without software and computers than one without music, not even close

Are you saying software is unimportant or music is unimportant?

A choice between the two, like choosing to be blind or deaf, I'd choose music, I'd choose blindness.

Music is much more fundamental to the human condition than, <laugh out loud>... software <more laughing>

Gather round the keyboard family, let's code together, you do the functions, I'll write main!

(This is intentionally harshly written, in response to the obvious hyperbole of this "Not to mention there's enough music already made to cover everyone's need" - whatever that is).

I'm aware it's all subjective, but I'll still write this: Music is life, Software is lifestyle.

moetech, find some music that elicits a response from a part of your lizard brain you didn't know existed, that makes you cry with connection. That's just the beginning of the journey.
