In the old days people thought about design, the wrote software, they supported their product.

Nowadays all the wannabees think installing a metric ton of shit from npm or the gem equivalents makes them a super productive brogrammer rock star developer. They have a single page website that requires gigabytes of javascript from fourty external locations to run a basic blog. They spend all day on github, but are borderline code unaware.

They argue lack of generics in go is good.

They are what the business and clients see, and that is why the people paying for software services end up labelling us all as muppets.

TIL software reuse is for brogrammers and DRY is a farce.

parent said they dislike generics so how could they like DRY?
