Re:How can you not be romantic about programming? by teddyh on Wednesday November 23, 2022 @03:58AM (#33716760)
My “labeling” is a form of expression to describe my point. You can disagree, but please be explicit instead of just going “well, that’s just what you think”. This is a discussion forum; I expect people to have differing opinions, and I want to debate them. You just seem to want to instead shut down any debate.

And yes, I do want to “gatekeep” any profoundly unhelpful people out of programming. Programming should be about helping people do things they otherwise don’t know how or could not do for themselves. Navel-gazers and gnostics (while they have their proper place and use) are generally not suited for, and reflect poorly on, the vocation of programming.
