If you support free speech, you must support people pinging other users. It's completely legal speech. If you won't defend pinging as free speech because you or someone else finds it disgusting, then no speech that you or anyone else views as disgusting is safe.

>if it is in fact on shaky legal ground it's reasonable to not want to be the case that establishes it as illegal.

It's not, The reddit admins are straight up lying to the ignorant (like yourself) to justify their prejudice. Pinging being protected speech has long since been estabilished, as it has undeniable artistic merit. The only time it's been included under any obscenity laws is when someone is being charged with possession of harassment, so the state can slap them with more charges. The courts have been very careful to not charge anyone for pinging, because they'd get their asses fucking annihilated by a higher court due to the firm precedence of pinging being completely legal speech. /r/Drama had nothing to worry about, this guy was just making shit up to fool people into thinking his censoring wasn't entirely personally motivated.

Software developers technically just click around, yet I think we can all agree they have one of the toughest jobs out there.

๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

All software developers DO is just click around and for some reason the Chinese give them 100k at 22 for entry level jobs to do nothing but get bought out.

If you are a programmercel, youโ€™re a neet

Lmao seethe harder wagie.

Sorry I like doing things at work that produce value

ah cool nice yeah I like money

Braaap braapp neolib defected brrapp brapppp

100k at max - money

​

k sure, just know this nothing compared to the average dramacel

I made significantly more than that with an undergrad from a budget state school and Iโ€™m lazy as fuck.

The best part tho is I can still live with my parents so Iโ€™m literally living the ultimate neet life. Work cooks breakfast and an amazing lunch, and when I get home my parents are cooking dinner.

Very nice

Yeah, like making my burger so I can go back to writing code and actually contribute to society.

writing code and actually contribute to society

Lmao, I bet you refer to yourself as an "engineer" too

If you are a programmercel, youโ€™re a neet

Programmercels making money hand over fist

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ’ฅ jealousy ๐Ÿคญ alert ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿšจ

Yeah real jealous of not being around fat redditors in an office with funko pops and capeshit toys all over the place. God I can imagine the smell

My god, what delicious cope, feed me more please. Unless you're in Cali, engineers and programmers are in the top 10 professions list by the number of based people it attracts. Have you been having problems following the lern2code app on your phone? I'm sorry to hear that, but we'll always need more janitors.

How bummed are you going to be when the gig economy outsources your entire industry to India and China in the next few years?

Taco Bell and McDonald's are also outsourcing their cashier jobs to robots. You're fucked too, big guy.

How does one outsource to a robot? Are they being flown in from a staffing agency in Shenzhen on a fucking H-1B1 or something?

Look at this knob not knowing the difference between mechanization and outsourcing. This is why you're going to be replaced by a sixteen-year-old Chinese peasant by 2022.

Imagine being some programmer geek. Your time was over 15 years ago. Itโ€™s cloud and security now boomer.

Even if you can't code, just learn Salesforce and some basic data science principles and click your way to $100k by the time you're 30. Imagine choosing to be poor when there's so much free training out there ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

It smells like free coffee and donuts you dweeb, when are you going to show up and deliver them for me, I'll tip you. 00001% of my wage or 20% of yours, same thing.

Respect the hustle, poorcel

they sit at a computer all day doing nothing that has an impact in the world.

atleast some teen at a computer in the airforce is making craters in some 3rd world shit hole

Its really not either. We also have to google and pray that stackoverflow has the answers.

Chapocels and ranting against professions they know nothing about, name a more iconic duo.

That subreddit makes me hate young people with a blinding passion.

Read it as libertarian drama, was not dissapointed

The computers are 10000000% more effective than any human at finding the shit u want, you dont need to be the elder pulling out scrolls in alexandria to find a book

Yang was right

I think it depends what kind of library. Public library, probably not. University or special collection library, maybe. But tbh I think most jobs that โ€œrequireโ€ a masters probably donโ€™t actually need one to do the actual tasks involved.

Education traditionally was only used to advance careers in medicine, law, and clergy. Most other occupations could be learned on the job. It doesn't take a chapo to see we've got too much education, but at the same time they're vastly underestimating the work a real librarian actually does.

As a guy who grew up poor-ish in the boondocks, then became a finance lawyer, it was eye-opening to realize that "banker" covers the entire range from local branch clerk to Wall Street MD making millions. Investment banks are like entire buildings full of Pete Buttigieg except they all use Excel and BBG terminals 16 hours a day.

Discussion on a similar point elsewhere in the thread. The irony is that they said the buildings are full of Buttcrack and not Bloomberg types.
