  yeah, remember those newfangled fancy Node.js guys who would just copy/paste from Stackoverflow without any understanding? Or the Java guys who wrote bloated apps that wasted CPU cycles on garbage collection instead of writing in C++, like God intended? Or the Fortran / Cobol guys who wrote in those God-damned, wasteful, useless high-level languages, instead of using assembly, like a proper programmer should?
