Oh please. Lots of people, myself included, take issue with having to answer your riddles three before I may cross the bridge that you value much more than I do.

There’s having patience and problem-solving ability, and there’s not seeing the value in jumping through the various hoops that comprise some ‘90s Internet fetishist’s playground.

This is all just code for “I’m old, set in my ways, and don’t appreciate the fact that the only reason I find my workflow easier is because I know it, not because it’s more intuitive than what people are doing these days”.

You have to be within several layers of bubbles to not see how small a percent of the general population are going to even understand any of this BS.

Things being this complicated makes them a non-starter. A nerd vanity project.

And this isn’t a knock on the “intelligence” of the general population. They quite rightfully won’t want to spend their limited time on God’s earth learning about all this.

Hacker News nerds will argue all day long that the Internet is a utility when the argument happens to personally benefit them, then in the same breath say that a random network admin is justified in blocking a whole ISP subnet due to one “bad” actor. And of course by bad actor I mean person that almost certainly accidentally got themselves infected with malware by not understanding the completely Byzantine world of computers and the Internet.

Personally I’m waiting for the 3 nano-tortilla process to hit. I think that that’ll push us over the hump.
