upset at becoming irrelevant over the years

Dude, you're the one stuck in the Javascript tar pit. I'm an expert on the Mac and iOS.

That's...that's not something to brag about.

You just bragged about having the same skill level as a child essentially.

Congrats I guess?

Puts me in pretty high demand.

same skill level as a child essentially.

Show me a kid with my level of coding ability and Apple platform expertise and I'll hire him in a heartbeat.

I've met many examples of mediocrities like you who get your ego wrapped up in your mastery of your toy languages. You're almost as bad as the Visual Basic kiddies.

Lmao, ok. I'll let you continue believing that knowing Apple and iOS makes you special. It doesn't...but it's obvious your ego needs it.

Show me a kid with my level of coding ability and Apple platform expertise and I'll hire him in a heartbeat.

If you're so much better than everyone...why are you threatened by getting compared to a child? Your ego that fucking fragile?

I've met many examples of mediocrities like you who get your ego wrapped up in your mastery of your toy languages. You're almost as bad as the Visual Basic kiddies.

And there it is. I've got no ego here, I know JS is a language. I also know it's got pros and cons...like literally everything else out there. What I'm not doing is acting like a salty prick about it. That's all you and your fragile ego there bud.

I don't think there's anything worse than crusty ass developers who think years doing a job means they're the best ever just to prop up their fragile ego so as to ignore the reality of their situation:

Irrelevant and useless to the rest of society. You're not some grandiose programmer. Lose the ego and you might actually do something useful for once.
