    Through friends, I know a guy who makes 400k USD per year.

    This same guy has no food in his apartment because "it's too expensive". He eats out (or orders in) for literally every meal.

    In sum: the rich are idiots.

        I've met people like this, my college had a lot of comp sci guys, and I always want to take a shower whenever I think about them.

            A reassuring point is most of them are exceedingly stupid and do not understand social organization (or even basic human empathy).

                Thus they are easily fooled.

                But also almost impossible to talk to because they're basically the arch-debatebros who think every human discussion should be replaced with computer logic and that all of their arguments are "rational" while yours are "emotional"

                The types of people that think having a hardbound copy of meditations made you smart.

            Just getting a basic conditioner shampoo hybrid with a reasonable scent (sandalwood or eucalyptus are pretty good) and then combine with bodywash and deodorant. Bam, five minute shower and a quick rub in the pits. Put some cologne or aftershave on (I love pinaud and other CVs cheap brands). Men's hygiene is so fucking basic and yet so many fuck it up horribly.

              all our computer shit would be way better if devs were forced to be as diligent as the 80s instead of memory and processing gains being wasted on bloat

                Oh thank God, I'm not the oldest person here.

                Just imagine this reply is in assembly, I'm way too lazy.

                tasks expand to fill the memory available they were dilligent back then because they had to be

                  it doesn't have to, there's just no financial incentive or regulatory pressure. embedded systems are still constrained because they want to pay less for hardware, but you care a lot less if you're not the one buying ram.

                    yeah but there is financial pressure to get the product released quickly which means there is pressure to cut corners and the memory being available makes it a corner that can be cut. Software developers now aren't morally inferior than they were then bosses then just listened when developers pointed out issues of bloat
