if tech treated tech like government, it would have mocked computing relentlessly for crashing so much and sent its own industry to the wood chipper. manual typewriters would be a token of a vigorous masculinity.
@interfluidity Tech tolerates a level of sloppiness and incompetence (the CrowdStrike incident, the constant Google Chrome performance issues, etc.) that no other field that calls its basic practitioners “engineers” could ever get away with.

@interfluidity @Migueldeicaza
I mean, I love vi (well, vim), but I've also heard people using it as a token of vigorous masculinity...
@nholzschuch @Migueldeicaza vim and vigor!
