I kept my Win7 install until like 2023 and it wasn’t security that drove me away but a huge amount of software no longer working on it.

This is just your ego talking. You can’t stand the idea that a computer could be better than you at something you devoted your life to. You’re not special. Coding is not special. It happened to artists, chess players, etc. It’ll happen to us too.

I’ll listen to experts who study the topic over an internet rando. AI model capabilities as yet show no signs of slowing their exponential growth.

Laugh it up while you can.

We’re in the “haha it can’t draw hands!” phase of coding.

I’m not super fond of dynamic typing either. I like untyped or uni-typed languages like ‘everything is an array’ (APL) or ‘everything is an integer’ (Forth, assembly).

I’m of the same opinion as Chuck Moore who once observed, “Strong typing merely creates errors so that they can be detected.” In my experience, the amount of complexity added by these systems is staggering. To such a degree that they cause more errors than they prevent. More types, more opportunities to use them incorrectly, after all.

I also prefer the ‘build the program while it’s running’ workflow, which is inhibited by static typing.

Jay Pritzker (governor of Illinois) seems like an okay dude.

• No one should be allowed to own a second home until everyone has one.
• Static typing sucks.

Me too. Ever since I read Richard Stallman’s words to avoid article. I kinda wish I hadn’t read it now lmao.

Ubuntu because it was the first distro (after Mint and PopOS) to boot on my eclectic hardware.
