I am not a programmer but your line of argument begged the question, “Are more options better, more efficient/effective, etc. or otherwise desirable?” Sure, if the only criterion you are trying to fulfill is “have as many options and different ways to complete the task at hand as possible,” you are correct that you can emulate a CLI within a GUI so you can accomplish a task both by clicking or typing instead of just typing.

However the parent you are responding to stated that having these additional choices (what he terms as “noise”) is clearly not effective for him so he disagrees with your original premise. Apparently for them “less is more” which is certainly understandable.

at least you can tell it’s not ai slop

oh shit what a blast from the past

what’s this from?

could be referring to “mad men” era secretaries as ibm era computers were just better fancier word processors/typewriters

edit: or maybe like IT helpdesk staff who are like janitors (i.e. they don’t see a difference between calling environmental services for a clogged toilet vs IT for a bricked computer)

this is why I’m ok staying small and never going mainstream, honestly I had hoped that for reddit pre 2010 but by mid 2010s it was already too far gone

I mean the founder was the mod of /r/jailbait for years, if that’s what they had out in the open I don’t want to know what they have semi hidden

unless ai gets stuck on 4chan or trump social and will just turn into robo hitler

tbf that might just be when the asteroid hits, nuclear war hits, or when ai deems humans as redundant and inefficient

I guess you got 17 more years

correct that’s what I meant to say thank you

all of asia works stupid long hours
