What makes you think that I don't care about other humans?
Your original post essentially claims that people shouldn't do things for their amusement.
From my perspective, without fun, there's no point in even bothering. Why feed myself and my fellow man if all we do is struggle?
I'm not sure that there actually _are_ any more "real" problems to solve in programming, if by "real" you mean things that significantly reduce human suffering. Those problems are political.
- chobeat 7y agoI'm not against finding amusement in programming, I'm against in promoting the idea that it's normal, healthy and preferable to find amusement in useless projects. You can be a virtuoso while developing something that matters to somebody, instead of having yet another z80 emulator.
