I dunno, I'd be weirded out if someone used a non anime skinned version of crystal. If this makes you cringe I feel like maybe not cut out for tech sector.
You need to remember that the technical people may not have an issue with it, but the bean counters tend to be more stuffy and upright about shit. And a lot of clients are especially up tight in my experience. Something about paying you money and expecting standard business responses.
I wouldn't give a shit if I saw that, but I absolutely would not send that up the chain if a junior sent me that screenshot (or I'd crop it down to the most useful info. Last thing I want to do is listen to some asshole c-level complain at me for 20 minutes about professionalism.
You're probably more senior than this dev.
I'd be weirded out they are running Windows. I no longer trust the technical opinion of anyone that runs that joke of an OS.
We've got an edgelord here folks.
This is the normie view, they just can't be bothered doing anything about it
Lmao, are you upset by my statements? I must have pressed a button, huh? Sorry to hear you feel insecure about running Windows. Just accept being tech illiterate, it's okay.
Maybe when you get a job you'll understand that you can't always choose your tech stack. Keep thinking you're a badass because you run Linux on your PC to play steam games and I'll keep writing software, that has real world value, on my work computer running Windows.
Sounds like you're coping because you're realizing that you don't know shit about computers.
You're right, I didn't start using computers before Windows 3.1. I don't lead a team of developers for software used all over the world and is the largest of it's kind. I definitely never have developed software on Linux. I've also never built my own computer. I surely don't have a degree in computer science. What is a computer anyways I obviously only have an iPad.
None of that shit means you know anything. It's hilarious the dumb shit you chose to qualify. I consider all those things elementary.
Ahh I get it now, you're just a fucking idiot.
Says the person failing to understand really basic concepts.
Ah yes, because people always have a choice. There's no way anyone competent would work at a larger company issuing devices with the company standard system running proprietary software that only functions on that system.
I mean, if your company forces it then you don't have an option. My company uses Windows so I have to use it for work and that's exactly how I know it's a joke of an OS. All my personal devices run linux.
