>People generally don’t like racists because they’re also generally awful people as well

Can't resonate. In my part of the world, people are generally racist.

It's not websites, it's people. Freedom of speech + anonymity just allow people showing who they really are.

No need to violate the license, just close the source and no outsider would know it's a fork.

Work in a project with BSD-licensed stuff.

Basically you are saying the old forums were a place to discuss stuff and NOT echo chambers with hivemind-like homogenous userbase.

This doesn’t look like a bad thing to me.

>See: the clauses saying "must reproduce/retain the above copyright".

Yeah, you will see the copyright if you are working at the company. Outsiders would never know it's a fork.

>Being used as foundation for PlayStation OS, Netflix and others.

Isn't that thanks to its license? They literally can be used in closed source software without a word of credit.

>Wait, I have never said anything about my supposed abilities or self-perceived performance regarding programming

How come? You said you are a ‘polyglot’.

Human language polyglots are geniuses who know several languages on a decent level. If you checked several courses on Duolingo, chances are you are not one.

The same applies to programming languages.

Maybe, stop calling yourself a synonym of ‘genius’ to avoid receiving references to Dunning-Kruger effect.

>How come you are diagnosing overconfidence from afar, without knowing anything beyond the few lines I've written?

Few lines are enough to see inconsistencies in your words and realize that I was in your shoes.

The only difference is that as a script-kiddie “having dabbled in a two-digit amount of programming languages“ I decided to give it a try and shifted to programming in my career. It’s not what I thought it was, so I cleaned out my closet from amateurish illusions, focused on 2 languages and I’m quite satisfied with my job.

How about "Never do, because afterwards you'll hate it"?

The article should be called:

> But I somehow always knew, if I had to do this 8 hours a day, for projects I am likely not intrinsically motivated to work on, I'd likely hate it after a few weeks

You just play with programming languages on the surface. Programming is something different and chances are you won't like it.

>I envy those which managed to make this passion into a paying job without loosing the love for it.

Why envy? Just find activity you love.

>Must be an outlet of some discord/irc channel (which?)

It's totally not this.

The only thing I did to promote čudan was spamming a lot on other Western textboards and a bit of other sites (like hackernews) and couple of textboard related IRC-channels.

>How does this "board" with only 3 threads get so many responses?

I wish I knew, too. I can only suppose people like the design (it appears that nice dark theme and responsive layout are kinda novelty for 2channel-style textboards in 2023).
