That seems disingenuous for some people: programming can be a bobby, too.
I'm guessing that you have a completely different reaction to someone who is telling their friends about their latest rock climbing exploits. (Scaled this massive chimney, had to use this super awkward crack for a peton; super challenging climb! Etc, etc).
Why is programming treated differently from other activities your friends do?
- antirez 13y agoBecause it is mostly at a level of details that without specific understanding of the topic it is impossible to understand and boring. But, if we would work as alpine guides, I would not be happy with my friends talking about climbing. The problem is basically: it's what we do all day + it excludes people outside of our circle.
- nevir 13y agoAh, gotcha!
