Question for resident computer geeks: Is there a rule or something that requires every software/project to be as fucking gay and/or childish as humanly possible?

[pod_panda]

"Is there a rule..."

Yep, software has to be easy enough for a nigger to run. Otherwise, dat beez rayciss. The Internet was so much more pleasant back when getting on line took some measure of tech-savvy: no niggers.

High-intelligence people tend to be neotenous

Is it that, or is that damn near everyone across the breadth of the bell curve is a juvenile jackass these days? I have a hard time imagining the highly intelligent in more serious fields like military or civil engineering or whatever are putting cutesie nonsense into their official documentation.

Pool's closed.

Neither tinkerpop, nor tunnelbear nor postman is nigger level software.

9 Bizarre Nicknames the Nazis Used

As we know the nazis didn't have a sense of humor because it was unaryan.

[ex_machina]

Appears as if I hit a nerve.

[FRB]

Sorry man, I have had enough sour-ass Gen X and Baby Boomer managers that sucked the utter joy out of work. Joy and creativity is the mark of the Aryan spirit.

[ex_machina]

Joy and creativity =/= gratuitous childishness. It's unfortunate this is lost on so many techies. My guess is it's a bit of smokescreen to avoid facing the endemic beta-maleness of the industry. Contrast with other fields--e.g., finance, at least, seems to remain a bastion of alpha males who are not short on humor, creativity, nor high-IQ, yet they don't have a culture of acting like overgrown 5-year-olds.

whoever runs the world doesnt want people to grow up, they want these infantilized idiots

[BiggerNeater]

I was on the phone with tech support for my phone company (I don't remember which one exactly) and she kept saying shit like "super duper!" and "awesome!" like they're trained to be fun and energetic during calls. I was just thinking "shut the fuck up you dumb bitch! I'm trying to conduct serious business here!"

Fuxkin japs cuterized our culture. And lowT corn munchers too

[Askeladden]

That last pic has got me thinking ...

[Vonte]

All that shit reminds me of cringey faggots on reddit who constatly post on subreddits like /r/starwars or /r/marvel and always heave comment threads where they say the first part of some lyrics or a movie quote and the rest of the cringey faggots finish it

(((MILLENIALS))) bro.

[Se73en]

(((Modern Computer Geeks))) have been infultraited by the Fake Nerds movement and the true computer programmers have quickly dwindled down to a minority. This was a slow and progressive phenomenon that started around the millenium. Since you seem to not be a computer programmer yourself, you are an outsider and could never understand the cringe that modern computer """professionals""" are.

Except they aren't high intellegence

[FRB]

The debate here is: "why are these mascots so goofy and yucky and upset me?"

The real debate should be: "how do we use this to our advantage?" Making WN/NatSoc cutsey/whimsical in some aspects wouldn't hurt the cause.

Silicone valley is full of hispsters and women However it all stems from a particular faggy artstyle brought about by cosplayers and comicbook fans.

[muh1488]

alot of the neckbeards out there are script kiddies and faggots

the real elite people have degrees in math/physics/chemistry and have coding skills

coding itself, IMO..is a dead end career but having a science background with coding skills is very, very lucrative if you go for the right field/industy

[FRB]

Except they aren't high intellegence

Must... not... snark...

They're definitely booksmart, just not street smart.
