Brave move saying that's stupid on lemmy lmao
LOL I still remember the feeling of my brain sort of melting the day I realized that someone had to write all the error messages I had ever seen :-)
Yeah it's wild how different software things are when you understand how they work
It really is! I can wrap my brain around some of it, as long as it's basic enough that I can keep the main loop in my head. But I'm in awe of developers who write complex software packages by themselves. Or folks that write low level hardware libraries... literally anything involving a network stack.
So yeah, pretty much everything:-)
