See, in hindsight the main reason like 75% of programmers got into programming in the first place is that they were really into video games when they were kids, and now those particular kids are the only ones that can manage to get decent jobs in the 2010s economy. Take that, Gary

Melmac posted:lol what? It's pretty much common knowledge that video game programming is poo poo pay, poo poo security, poo poo hours, complete poo poo work. I don't see how this is in any way relevant to what I said  Kids get really into video games, they get curious about how they are made, they learn to program, they go to college, they get a job somewhere in tech as the only type of professional that can actually find a job in the 21st century. Regardless of whether the job they end up getting is in games (and tons of people still want those jobs regardless of work hours or security because they like games that much), one of the most popular reasons anyone gained an interest in programming in the first place is because they liked games as a kid. See: the majority of the CS department in my college class, myself included. loquacius fucked around with this message at 23:35 on Aug 14, 2015 |
