Or the the history of how oracle created a world wide conspiracy to impose Java has a standard , and if they hadn’t done so Haskell/ Clojure / ( Anything that’s not OOP) would be running everything from Operating System to Back End. That damn Oracle Conspiracy, and OOP !

Hacker News = everything that came after my adolescence is terrible and everyone needs to know that. Twitter: A rabid pack of shrieking, pitchfork wielding neo-Marxist SJWs ruining people's lives with impunity. Facebook: their boomer Neo-Nazi anti-vaxxer parents captured by CIA mind-control and agitprop. Youtube: nothing but low-effort monetized clickbait and also leftist propaganda, because Google. Instagram: also nothing but low-effort monetized clickbait, but also porn. Tiktok: CCP propaganda but also for some reason we really like it, at least until the novelty wears off. Reddit: just mouth-breathing imbeciles posting cat pictures and memes. Good thing we're better than them, and point out that fact to ourselves at every opportunity. The entire rest of the web: shit, except for 4chan. Movies: shit. TV: shit. Music: shit. TFA: never bothered reading it, but I'll assume this rant about cultural marxism is relevant. Books: Do they even still make physical books? I thought paper went obsolete in 2019. Science: lies, damn lies and statistics. Media: lies, damn lies and more lies. Other people: hell. Emoji: BLIND RAGE Technology: What is with all these buttons and blinking lights, what does any of this even do? Why would anyone need anything more than a Lisp REPL in a bare terminal? Code: JAVASCRIPT DELENDA EST. Everything but Rust and Lisp are shit and PHP literally gives you brain cancer. Society: Ted Kaczynski was right about everything. Burn it all down and return to monke. Your stupid project: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224 Hacker News itself: used to be good, but now it's turning into Reddit. Who let these people in here? I bet half of them have never even written a compiler.

  Oof. A lot of truth here. At least we are self-aware and can have a laugh at ourselves.
