Luckily I believe in a version of heaven that has unlimited computers. I would spend eternity writing Rust and Haskell without worrying about deadlines or running out of Ram.
I believe if there is a heaven and I end up there, I’ll be surrounded by computers I can play with on end without anyone bothering me. If there’s a hell and I end up there, I’ll be surrounded by people who need help with their computer.
Have you not had friends or family come to you to solve their computer problems? Their problems are almost always some tedious, boring, “How do I make program X do thing Y?” It’s just a technical literacy skill check (how well can you navigate modern apps) not an actual “do you know how computers work” problem. Tedious as fuck. God save me from that shit.
If my girlfriend was a programmer bringing me some interesting technical problem, maybe. But even then, I spend 8 hours dealing with that shit, the chances that I want to deal with more of it after work are slim.
Yes, I generally enjoy fixing interesting GNU/Linux problems, but fixing lay people problems is often boring. But even lay people problems can be interesting when I can pick which problem to solve.
I used to like that. But then I graduated college and got a job and I don’t have the energy to deal with that crap. I just want my computer to work. The only time I fuck around with things is when something isn’t working the way I think it should work and the frustration reaches critical mass. Dicking around with a non-critical system can be fun, since if I break something on it my main PC is still fine. But I’d pretty much always prefer spending my free time on other hobby projects like programming or resin casting.
Both Haskell and Rust are functional and the video is a very blatant satire. Either you are confused or you are trying to be funny and I’m not getting it.

Fake nerd. Real nerds enjoy fixing computer problems.

Because Rust is cool.

Who said the video is satire? I demand proof Adolf Hitler didnt lose the war because of Haskell.
