Four Yorkshiremen 4 Developer
Dev 1: You kids have it easy with your "Natural Language Prompts." When I started, I actually had to type code into an IDE and use Stack Overflow to find the bugs! Dev 2: Stack Overflow? Luxury! When I started, we had to use Emacs and memorize 400 different macros. If we got stuck, we didn't have a bookmarked website—we had to use Google and actually read the second page of results! Dev 3: Google? We would have killed for Google! When I started, I wrote my code in vi—not even Vim, just regular vi! And for help? We had to post a question on Usenet and wait three days for a Unix greybeard to tell us we were idiots! Dev 4: Usenet? You were living in a dream world! When I started, we didn't have "help." Or "manuals." Or "screens." I had to write an entire operating system using a hole puncher and a stack of index cards, and if I had a question, I had to consult a Ouija board to talk to the ghost of Alan Turing!
