Introduce yourself, you deserve your own post, not a thread with a bunch of people talking about different things so people can ask you questions and learn more about you; your work; your interests - eviltoast

Create a post! - tell us about you and what you think about the state of computer science

(For example, I think it is completely fucked

And most science has reproducibility problems because computer scientists are not working on critically important open-source science equipment

Instead creating stupid fucking hype cycles, or rebuilding a fucking cart system for the millionth time for some truly meaningless company

Worse yet, selling phones with essentially no real hardware improvements every year, despite everyone in tech knowing moores law is dead, and has been for a long time, but still driving the need for rare earth minerals that fuel wars in fucking Africa. Getting caught literally installing malware on their old devices to slow them down, Samsung and Apple have both been caught doing this, to force upgrades to essentially the same hardware with the UI moved around a bit. Its more than shameful, its a driving factor in total cascading ecological collapse.

It drives pain and suffering, waste, and lies and unfortunately it also drives me).
