Yeah yeah, where are we now with all previous predictions in the last 18-24 months?

Aren't we supposed to be all out of work right now? That coding is a solved problem? What about all the previous doom-callings?

Oh, what? Didn't happen? Maybe because these hypemakers are just full of shit.

    MNT Reform (not the pocket)... Just wow, but the price is also wow though...

    I hope these things catch on. With a physical keyboard, I totally see myself coding on one of those in the subway.

    I am using Linux since the 90's, so my reasons might be different from "to leave Windows".

    I started coding at an early age, so for me, having access to all my tools free-of-charge was a big plus. Add to that the possibility of read the source code of everything, the learning potential was mind blowing.

    But bruh, "if it compiles, it works". Who needs testing now that we have blazing safe rust with AI?

    "Ship fast and break things", bruh.

    That's the sad point where the software industry is at these days.

    In a few years people will be locked-in with some proprietary Linux distro variants made by big tech and they will wonder how that happened.

    People show stop a moment and reflect on why the GNU license exists in the first place.

    I tried neovim for a while and I went back to vim for that reason: setup once, then forget about it.

    I have plugins that haven't been touch for 5 years+ and they are working as intended.

    Rock solid.
