It's not the application but a man's need to be an animal again. Frankly, writing Ember.js apps via CoffeeScript which has roughly 11 layers of abstraction feels like a metrosexual man eating a processed food with organic marketing on a IKEA furniture (CoffeeScript -> Compiled Javascript -> Ember.js -> jQuery -> JavaScript -> Chrome V8 Engine -> WebKit Layout Engine -> GTK+/Cocoa/Chrome Windows View -> Linux/OS X/Win32 display API -> C/C++ -> Assembly).
There was a time when a man can eat raw meat (machine code) but he can start again today by eating bloody beef.
- AndrewDucker 13y agoOh God. This is so ridiculous. Even back in the 80s people were spoofing this attitude, with essays like "Real Men Dont Use Pascal" http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/rni/papers/realprg.html http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/rni/papers/realprg.html

- pavlov 13y agoUnless the man grows, feeds and slaughters the cow himself, that "bloody beef" is just as removed from animalistic experience as the organic food. It's ridiculous to pretend that eating hormone-accelerated mass-processed meat is closer to nature. Sure, it's oozing blood, but that blood is tainted by an enormous industrial profit machine.
- com2kid 13y agoMy boss knows assembly. My boss also hunts animals with a bow and arrow. Does he get a pass?
- benjamincburns 13y agoOnly if he made the bow and arrows himself from sticks, fibre, and shale he found in the woods, and if he also purified/doped/etched his own silicon wafers.
