what do you meen?
- hfdgiutdryg 8y agoPresumably that most modern programming is about hooking one API up to another. It seems like modern programming work is AI, graph theory, or fairly simple plumbing. Look at the other post about hooking up the 'smart' doorbell to Slack. That's about as interesting and 'hackerish' to me as using the switch on your surge protector to turn on two lights at once.
- brent_noorda 8y agoWhen I was new at programming, it was so exciting, and exercised all my brainpower, to figure out solutions. But after 30 years, as I got better at it, even if I couldn’t come up with a solution right away I was sure I could soon enough. No more thrill than doing a daily crossword.
