Keep on changing your tune. Every developer you know uses a macbook pro because they don't want to set up a linux distro, but not all of those macbook pros are running OSX? What are the non-OSX macbook pros running? ^BSD? Just as much fiddling as linux. Windows? Now that is a rare creature.

Sure they are. At least the GP openly recognises that they might be projecting.
- dagw 11y agoWindows? Now that is a rare creature. Not in my experience. At most .Net/Windows dev events I've been to Macbooks running windows are hardly uncommon.
- vacri 11y agoI stand corrected, though I imagine if the parent moved in those circles, there'd be more than a few non-macbooks in sight.

That's reaching - you know full well I wasn't talking about distros like Ubuntu, hence the 'no one has heard of' part. > Sure they are. At least the GP openly recognises that they might be projecting. Projecting their l33tness, which literally no one cares about or wants to here. Simplicity is better, there is nothing inferior about something being simple.

On the contrary: I showed that the original author of the submission was projecting the main premesis of his article. And I showed how subjective projection is absolutely meaningless at any scale above yourself, by sharing my own projection of the same thing. Basically how this was an utter rubbish article. I think it was quite successful and absolutely demonstrated my point beyond my wildest expectations.
