Technology Leftism

I used to work as a web developer but one of the reasons I couldn't stand it is this:

The field has been overrun by crybaby, gender-bending, mentally ill weirdos, who want to persecute you for having a fucking penis.

Is there a way to stop this?

It's an organized plot

There's nothing to be done

Vote Trump and hope for the best

I'm not referring to a specific project Hans.

I'm referring to the entire field. The industry culture is toxic.

I notice they were absent when it was difficult and uncool, but flooded in when it became easy and fashionable.

The difference between computer culture then and now is back then people who were interested in computer science were engineers who were fascinated with the possibilities computers posed. They'd grown up in the pre-computer age, and they were dazzled by computers.

The new generation of computer engineers and programmers have grown up with computers. You still get the science-minded people who are amazed by advances in technology and want to contribute to it. You also get socially retarded weirdos who are so socially inept and unprepared for the real world that they literally want to dedicate their entire lives to sitting behind a computer screen, tinkering. This group attracts society's cast offs, including extremists from both the right and left. Think about it: you're a geeky tranny like and you've been tormented your entire life. Social interactions with real people have been very painful for you. So you go to college and pretty much every major will force you to go out into the real world and face society. EXCEPT computer science, which will allow you to comfortably retreat to your beloved computers. You can spend all your time creating computer programs, and you don't even have to leave work to do your hobbies, like watching anime and masturbating to furry porn.

NOICE FLAG

Yes. Disconnect and block them.

Rebuild cyberspace without them and keep them banned from every place you build.

We have to start over and relearn how to make the internet and cyberspace without their influence.

Exactly. But how do we fix it?

Again you're right but how is it fixed?

Do either of you work in tech? Would you say your company's culture is better than this (i.e., is normal)?

Leave? Start your own business.

I've been working in the industry for aboyt 18 months now after graduation and each day my resentment of computers grows.

Just fuck it all together. Leave the autists to their work and abort ourselves back into fucking reality.
The ship is sinking.

I'm not in computers, but I was mostly raised by my father, who's an expert in computer programming and web development. I'm good with computers because of him, but I deliberately chose not to go into computer science because he always seemed so miserable screaming at his computers, even though it's his big interest.

You need leadership against this sort of stuff. I doubt you're the only one that feels this way but there's no one to focus on the issue

Not everyone into technology currently is a cuck. It's really dependent on the field and even the area. A PC hardware enthusiast is less cucked than a phone reviewer. A software engineer or programmer is less cucked than a "app developer".

They are maoist communists who want to overtake society. The only way to fight them is to outskill them

>I've been working in the industry for aboyt 18 months now after graduation and each day my resentment of computers grows.
I remember that feeling, do you plan to go into something else and if so, what?

Ha. Seems like a good reason to be honest. What have you gone into then?

People like Linus and Carmack (see pic) are uncorrupted by this toxic SJW bullshit, but I don't think either of them would want to champion some sort of "anti-SJW" movement, because that wouldn't look very good. The media would jump down their throats

>Not everyone into technology currently is a cuck.
I agree with that
>A PC hardware enthusiast is less cucked than a phone reviewer.
I definitely don't necessarily agree with that. MKBHD is a phone reviewer and he's pretty fucking based. He plays professional sport so that makes him more alpha than me

Yeah it's fucked.

It will get better once programming becomes untrendy again.

It's simple, if low guns per captica - high levels of leftism.
Therefore, high guns per capita= low levels of leftism and cry babies.

Got it? Oh wait there is no fixing this for you, sorry you can't defend yourselves.
Fucking faggot, might as well start stretching your asshole to get ready for the faggots

Go into IT consulting.
You don't get to code as much but you still have to know your shit. Also the pay is way better.

Or if you're a code monkey just make your own company.

international relations - been doing stuff in development, but looking to get out and do more in analysis.

Anyone who thinks the tech industry wasn't riddled with liberal hippies from day one is kidding themselves. Computer security even moreso than the rest of it.

it was literally you who had given the monkey the tools. lowering the industry requirements to having fingers finally catching up on you.
t. unity dev

...what?

This culture mainly comes from San Francisco, and Seattle. That's in your country, faggot

That's a good shout 2bh, maybe when I get some more confidence / balls I should go into that

That sounds pretty cool.

>Think about it: you're a geeky tranny like 77258504 and you've been tormented your entire life. Social interactions with real people have been very painful for you.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head there.

So just ignore them.
And if an employer asks you to train them(because they are all dumbfucks that know nothing past HTML and copying code) just teach them Haskel.

No you guys started it first, San fran and Seattle followed especially after 911

But still confirmed my point in the high capita theorem. I gave you a solution to fix it.

>Anyone who thinks the tech industry wasn't riddled with liberal hippies from day one is kidding themselves.
Well I disagree with you (see pic)

>Computer security even moreso than the rest of it.
I would say computer security is one of the least lefty fields.

Web dev is one of the most lefty.

By who? By me personally?

Obviously it's very true but it doesn't help solving the problem

If only I took those Haskell courses at uni

You guys? Who does that mean? Me personally? Britain? Europeans? And why do you think this?

>I gave you a solution to fix it.
Did you? Is it more guns? How can I personally change the gun laws of the UK?

I'll stick around a bit so I have enough skills to act as a security blanket.

Otherwise all I really care about is freedom. I dont need a lot of money.
I'd prefer minimalist living going at something I love than being paid through the nose to be a drone.

I would consider freelancing whilst travelling. Digital nomad life - low hanging fruit for us. While computers are a pain, plugging away on a laptop on the go has a lot more appeal and adventure than dragging yourself into an office.

I also enjoy writing, being /fit/ and music. So content creation appeals as well e.g writing articles, creating videos, music.
Being paid for any of that to any extent would always be a bonus. I'd certainly have more time to pursue it.

To be honest man, I believe all you need is some self determination. Knowledge and reach is so accessible these days you'd just have to be a flaccid whelp to fuck up making something of yourself by doing your own thing.

>I'll stick around a bit so I have enough skills to act as a security blanket.
That's a good idea instead of straight up quitting like I did. That's not a good idea.

>To be honest man, I believe all you need is some self determination. Knowledge and reach is so accessible these days you'd just have to be a flaccid whelp to fuck up making something of yourself by doing your own thing.
Maybe you're right. And yeah the digital nomad thing sounds cool. I personally don't mind an office though as long as the office isn't full of petty politics. I like being in a professional work environment, whereas I hate working from home because all I want to do at home is watch TV and do nothing.

But I do want to travel more.

I know that feel breh. Been in the field for roughly 20 years.
I just do short term contract work now otherwise I lose my shit.
Last story I could share:
>Fat dumb cunt put in charge
>She has the least knowledge of all
>She has no experience
>Other higher up ham planets put her in charge
>She instantly turns into a hateful bitch
>People quit
>She then quits not to get any heat from management
>Heard she's doing the same elsewhere
This is our reality.. BUT BUT BUT i'm in the process of securing investment for a startup. NO WOMEN WILL EVER BE HIRED.

>when it became easy

Dude, real development isn't made with pret-a-porter wordpress or whatever 5 minute set-up.

>NO WOMEN WILL EVER BE HIRED.
I'm not against women being in tech.

I *am* against women expecting special treatment.

Programming IS an inherently male task, PERIOD. 90% of engineers are men, 90% of nurses are female. Certain careers inherently attract different sexes because of biology.

If a woman can get a tech job on MERIT and is willing to accept a technical culture (like anybody else would have to), then I don't see a problem.

>I'm not against women being in tech.
>I *am* against women expecting special treatment.
What's the difference?

5-10%

>Is there a way to stop this?

>Find a right wing investor
>Do right wing project
>Profit because lefties suck at the job

Once again we have proof that brown eye master race is vastly superior to stupid inbred blue-eye blond-haired shniztelfaces

>tfw i'm going into web and graphic design

Wew ladz. Can't wait to be one of six conservatives in the entire field.

Cyber security field is pretty conservative and non nonsense, but im beginning to see the infestation as well, techbro.

It has gotten bad recently. The only community that will likely remain based is the Russians.

how the fuck are there even enough women coders to have any affect on the industry whatsoever

>People like Linus and Carmack (see pic) are uncorrupted by this toxic SJW bullshit, but I don't think either of them would want to champion some sort of "anti-SJW" movement, because that wouldn't look very good. The media would jump down their throats

Yah they're both well enough established to be thoroughly anti-Fragile. But even so most normal people simply can't be fucked dealing with the inevitably retard shitstorm that would result from calling out SJWs.

This has been annoying me for some time, and I don't know exactly how to fix it. A few points:

- web development is the worst, mostly because it has the lowest barrier for entry
- in my experience the less trendy the work is, the less of those dickheads are around
- in my experience the higher the barrier for entry, the less of those dickheads are around
- I suspect these people are just sheep that haven't really given the things they think about much thought. The zeitgeist at the moment says that if you're young, clever, and want to be "correct" you should parrot all this Guardian bullshit and act like a wanker. In an alternate universe rationality, common sense, evidence, and critical thinking are regarded as the most important traits. Alas we don't live there

Prescription:

- stick to highly technical environments
- stick to untrendy industries
- work hard to be skilled in things these people don't have the willpower to be skilled in. want it more. You'll find some of these cunts working on compilers or GPU optimising numerical algorithms, but far far less than web development
- stay away from places these people hang out. West coast USA is the worst, but parts of Europe are pretty fucked as well
- don't use Twitter or read parts of the internet where you're likely to encounter this bullshit. Stick to technical publications, journals, etc.

cont’d. . .

. . . cont'd

possibly:
- realise you have nothing to gain from engaging with these people. You won't change their minds, or anyone else's. Spend your energy getting good. If you want to fuck with them, figure out how you can exploit them for gain. Any engagement otherwise is probably just placating your lizard brain.

I've been in this game since last century and have seen the bullshit creeping up. I decided to leave my home town (Melbourne) and now I travel around doing consulting work. I work in oil and gas, a pretty untrendy industry that these fuckheads likely wouldn't want to be part of. The work I do is pretty technical, I write software for geophysicists. Pretty much everyone I work with is older than me, and I'm in my 30's.

I sometimes think about leaving altogether but honestly the pay is too good and I don't think any other gig is going to be much better.

Work with people who are not fuckheads, and minimise the chances you will encounter fuckheads online or in person. No solution is perfect, but bitching won't solve anything. If you're a halfway decent developer you can definitely make a good life for yourself and encounter no more of these twats than anyone in any other industry.

I read this the other day

Its related to nihilistic degenerate leftists and STEM

>Many of the people I care about most, and find most interesting, are STEM-educated refugees from ideological rationalism. They’ve mastered rationality, they’ve seen through it—and many now are stuck. Systems cannot provide them with meaning; but neither, it seems can anything else. Many fall into crippling nihilistic depression—a characteristic of stage 4.5. This is awful.

>Still worse, pseudo-pomo misunderstands the postmodern critique simply as “all systems are wicked, false ideologies invented by the powerful as means of oppression, and must be destroyed.”3

>Unfortunately, “critical theory” has so far failed to produce a broad, positive, clear and practical meta-rational vision. With nothing beyond the discredited stage 4 to look forward to, it is mostly no longer possible for humanities majors to develop a rational, systematic self. Nor can they participate effectively in a rational, systematic culture and society. At best, if they do somehow make it to stage 4, deconstructive postmodernism can only push them on into the ultra-relativist nihilism of 4.5. In that abyss, you realize rationality is not the answer, but can see no alternative. There is essentially no support available for the further transition to stage 5.4

The first coders were chicks as it grew out of the female secretaries that crunched math for engineering firms.before calculators were things and the best coders have elevated linguistic IQ so it should play to female strengths. Moden commercializing of the field seemed to change it into something only solitary obsessives can be good at. If coders still sat around in big open rooms chatting for up to 2 hours of the shift like the old secretaries you'd have good female in it.
