App store? A windows installer? So you just make user apps? Then publish them on existing platforms built by programmers who had to think about all the complexities you blissfully pretend don't exist?

Just email me a binary to flash with a usb stick? Here's a link to download a zip file, just drag and drop into file explorer. Totally scalable stuff. But then again you just make calculators for the android app store, so I guess you're fine.

Nope. I do embedded C/C++ and what you can read above. I occasionally do some tooling for desktop or low level APIs. But I know what ides are capable of.

Dont make the mistake of thinking you are better than others, otherwise you’ll keep feeding the general feeling of Rust cultism and you’ll end up programming in niche languages from the command line, 1991 style.

You are really obsessed with this 1991 stuff. And here I thought the common prejudice was that only boomers were still stuck using IDE programs. I think you believe yourself to be in an ego battle and that's just not the case for me.

I was discussing "work you have to do to setup and actually understand your development tool chain in C as well as C++", and I mentioned IDEs' easy of use. Then you came along saying that the command line is the way for "everyone who programs in 2022"... which is clearly the opposite. If you don't want to see that... I'm sorry but this conversation doesn't have a point.

And you mentioned "boomers" so I know exactly with who I am talking to.

My ego walks away unharmed from this conversation.

Actually, I did not start by mentioning anything about years or what is up-to-date. You were the first one to bring up 1991 and current year as a derision.

I believe you have a capable need for the tools you choose to use. I wish I could have sympathized, but the snark you engaged with set the wrong tone.
