      As we come into 2020, I am now pretty sure I picked the wrong career. If I had known what computers were going to become, I probably wouldn't have wanted to be a programmer. It is definitely no longer a career for people who take pride in their work.

      What would you do as a career instead?

      Either something where you can take pride in your work, like traditional artisan (maybe furniture or woodworking?), or something where your job has some way to inflict vengeance, like a lawyer.

          Hold up are you saying that programmers *cant* take pride in their work? Like somehow carpentry is immune to those who do it just for a quick buck?

          thing is that as an industry serious programming is “economically unviable”. The prog. culture is fucked up to a point that if white beard argues w/ a 2y xp n00b about practices/approaches, the white beard come off as the n00b, and more often as a terrible person.

          Vengeance jobs exist, sure. I'm less convinced of the existence of the first thing, though

          I feel like a traditional artisans are in a similar predicament to you. For example: I've heard blacksmiths lament the way powertools changed the craft away from shaping the material, to removing as much material as quickly as possible.

          I should also mention that I'm glad you went with programming, because I learned a lot from your videos. It was exactly the style of programming that was looking for, after web development seriously disappointed me.

          Carpenters can take pride in their work even while IKEA exists. What’s different about programming?

          What's different is that a carpenter can make a good piece of furniture and sell it. A programmer cannot make a good program, because in order to sell it, at a minimum it must run on an operating system that does not actually work, on hardware that doesn't work either.

          Even as an artisan you only get a short moment of pride before you turn around and see all the flaws in it. And the bulk of your work is probably samey, uncreative work for people who just want what somebody else has.

          Maybe all we get anywhere is making the most of the short moments of "Hey, I made something neat, considering what I had to work with." before reality sets in again.

          You might be able to have both craftsmanship and vengeance if you become an assassin (the ancient order variety, obviously, not the state-sponsored variety)

          Does that require the weird VR suit and reliving the lives of old historical figures? Or is that only in video games?
