I feel bad for you, to live a life of such hate. I truly don't understand the disconnect in your brain between "maintaining a production-ready codebase for 100k users" and "me and my friend mate a shitproject to learn more".
I'm "simping" for new people being interested in programming, what? do you want people to stop being programmers?
Not sure if its this sub, this instance or what. but im out. bad moderation.
