Honestly do this all the time to impress girls with my programming finesse, and it works practically every time.
How about you guys, though? Anyone else do it? Post your success stories.

Reminder that having autism makes you a better programmer.

leykis is that you?

>things that never happened
i open the terminal whenever i want to diagnose a normy's PC and not a single one of them gave any weird remarks, they were just sitting there and i was having a normal conversation while fixing their shit.

I've seen this thread before. Word for word...
Henry Barnes
that looks like Buenos Aires
Hudson Flores
only an autist would think anyone is even minimally impressed by your coding.
Now if you were using Vim, on the other hand...
John Green
on Sup Forums? righttt
leykis is the authentic redpill on women and feminism. The shit anti-feminists are spouting on Sup Forums and Sup Forums these days is such victim mentality bullshit.
Jordan Kelly
That's a much different situation

Because they kinda expected you to be some sort of computer wizard, therefore no weird looks were given. If someone from Sup Forums pretends to be a normie and accidentally reveals his multi-boot options or God forbid, actually boots to anything other than Windows/macOS, expect to be called a computer geek, nolifer or that Pajeet from Mr. Robot show.
Hudson Morales
you hang out around some very terrible people user. either that or your posture, way you dress, talk, etc screams with autism.

I now have more than 1300 hours just playing online with that guy on only 3 maps. Also like 500 hours on a single anno 2070 map. Very relaxing.

im confused
You were a working as a barista?
If not, why are they commenting about you? Did you have something cool to illustrate your work prowess? or are you telling me they were commenting on your IDE?
Parker Gutierrez
nope. there are two kinds of laptops.. Regular ones and Macs. A 2000$ thinkpad looks just like a 300$ Acer to normies.
So it must be you user. Time to go to /fa/ and /fit/
Nicholas Long
Not a barista. They noticed that I ignored her and proceeded to bash on me for programming in general, I guess.
Parker Cox
Had it happen to me years ago. Was compiling something or other while in physics class. >girl behind me: "are you hacking???"
Julian Phillips
it's true all programmer jobs are straight nepotism
Carson Thompson
>using sublime >using a """""professional""""" editor in terminal only >using visual studio
Nah, not really. I was literally a guy off the street when I was hired. I've had jobs throughout the states as well and I've only encountered that once over 10 years. It seems like it depends on the industry you work in. Advertising/Marketing is like that, from what I know but the majority of the real world still actually goes by skill.
Brandon Rivera
Not even a program we were suppose have our book out so mine was in my thinkpad, so i decided to update
>user you a hacker
Words moving on a screen make you a cracker man

But what if I have programming? Will that make me a better autist?

Ian Turner
You should really start linting for these very reasons.
Xavier Gomez
He was a senior programmer. He probably thought something like "Jesus Christ, this is the kind of prick they want to substitute me. Fucking JavaScript kids."
Blake Mitchell
TONIGHT
Julian Long
linting?
Nolan Wilson
I was going to give you a link, but why? No wonder he looked at you in disgust.
Ryder Jackson
It's what smart programmers do instead of using vim for everything.
