Modern #TechStack|s are convenient but they also make #developers lazy and result in the #enfattening of #Software and #Games.

Like we had entire Music Videos on the spare space of a #NeoGeoCD which meant this needed to be streamed, and mind you this is redbook CD Audio, not fancy ATRAC3 or Opus...

Nowadays we have shitty #WebApps that eat up 100+MB just for a #WebView and which are instantly useless once they don't have a high-speed, low latency internet connection!

People like #GraceHopper and #MargaretHamilton propably wouldn't even be mad, but just disappointed, knowing how a modern #IDE eats more computing power than the entire human race had at their career peaks...

And don't even get me started on all the #WastefulComputing aka. "#AI" #bs and #Shitcoin - #Scams!

@inthehands if it was as easy as those #CryptoBros / #TechBros think, do they think people like #GraceHopper would've been pulled from retirement trice?

#JohnGreen released a new book today.
I found that #GraceHopper 's legacy is still on educational buildings or and her namesake destroyer.
While lots of the midwest USA will get crazy weather tomorrow, today has been gorgeous even if way too warm for mid March.

@hacks4pancakes What did I miss, where was the memory of admiral #GraceHopper erased a week ago?

@drew @jennasmith @xgebi @hacks4pancakes Speaking of #GraceHopper, I highly recommend listening to her 1982 speech delivered to the NSA: Here is part 1:

Humans are allergic to change. They love to say, "We've always done it this way." I try to fight that. That's why I have a clock on my wall that runs counter-clockwise.

@sarajw #GraceHopper really was awesome.

I wounder if we'd ever get a #HoloDeck and if so we'd get #Hopper to really question people and their ideas...

Wow. Fantastic. I now have some tears in my eyes, after viewing her talk. A truly remarkable person. They don't make'em any more. So Beautiful.

What a masterclass from Grace Hopper. 40+ years later, and I can still relate to everything she said.

If the name doesn't ring a bell, Grace Hopper is a pioneering computer scientist and U.S. Navy rear admiral. Her insights from decades ago are still incredibly relevant today.
