There’s a lot of programming you can do with zero or very basic math skills. But some stuff can require a lot. But I’m quite sure you could manage a career very nicely without ever touching those areas. People who do that are probably seeking those things out.
It won’t be long before the internet is just bots talking to each other and advertisers paying them to do so.
I vividly remember the Digg migration and Reddit is so very much like Digg these days.
Yeah they’ve gotten really weird about forcing you to use their app and put a credit card on it constantly. Really annoying.
I’m 50 and really don’t watch movies almost at all any more. They tend to be so formulaic and too long to watch at home at night. If I’m going to watch something it will likely be episodic tv series. I do still play video games on the regular though.
I used Borland Turbo Pascal and C++ all through school and I have to agree, these were the most intuitive and efficient IDE’s I’ve used.
This was cringe even in the '90s.
I can’t imagine who would ever pay $700 to upgrade from a ps5 for this.

It’s traceable but also possible to hide your identity, especially if you are a major criminal or government under sanctions. Especially when compared to the traditional finance system (in which they also tend to be pretty good at hiding their identities and transactions).
It’s a great platform for being able to transfer money that would otherwise be under sanctions and for storing criminal profits. And that’s probably what it will always be for.
The only way to get this rich is by exploiting others and almost definitely breaking laws. These people all have a screw loose somewhere.
Well if all the good mods leave and you only have the bad ones left or people who come in just to profit, you get this.
Maybe something from My config will inspire you.
This is one area where I am vehemently in support of IP protection for all the writers and artists’ works being used. Unfortunately, unlike when it comes to suing individuals who copy something, the wholesale theft of generations of art and writing by AI companies is just being let slide.
Honestly I can’t argue with that. That’s the reality of the situation. But emotionally they still deserve a bigger piece of what they created.
Seedbox VM running on my Synology permanently routed through VPN running radarr, sonarr, jackett, plex. I find stuff either by searching what’s new for the month or by occasional subscriptions of the streaming services.
