Repeatedly telling people that they're bad developers, should walk away from a computer, that they are "script kiddies", because they do not know or enjoy some arcane technical artifact. I call this gatekeeping.
- adev_ 6y ago> enjoy some arcane technical artifacts Except that I do not think that you can call executing "make" and using your native package manager an "arcane", I am sorry. These are basic actions that are documented even from tutorials from the 90's. They are basic actions that are generally part of any first year study in computer sciences. That is not 'gatekeeping', there is no gate to keep here. I name more that fight laziness and understand your tooling.
- DagAgren 6y agoSpeaking as a C developer of twenty or thirty years or so who's used make for all that time: Make is absolute, utter arcane bullshit. It is mad. It is complete nonsense.
- adev_ 6y ago> Make is absolute, utter arcane bullshit. It is mad. It is complete nonsense. Great. And you could be a developer for 40 years, if you do not precise why and how. This is your comment which is arcane bullshit and complete nonsense.
