Wait what, you can't use a *code* editor when you're under 18 now?

@marekfort VC-funded company doing VC-funded company things. Last time I checked, Vim, Emacs, Kate etc... didn't ask for my age. Almost as if it's better to not follow the hype, who would have thought?

we're doomed

[fuzzyleapfrog@chaos.social]

@marekfort Because you might learn to code? God forbid!

[hupf@tooting.ch]

@marekfort what the...?!

@marekfort Honestly, I wouldn't be opposed to making everything that contains an LLM 18+... or 180+ for that matter, as long as shoving that stuff into absolutely everything becomes less and less attractive.

@marekfort

Excuse me, WTF???

[jimmylittle@hachyderm.io]

@marekfort @Gargron I think it’s probably more that you can’t enter into a legal agreement like new ToS unless you’re 18 (in the US, at least…)

Lawyers ruin everything.

@marekfort Those kids have to use neovim and become gay... it's too late now...

@straycatstrut @marekfort Zed's dead, baby

[scrumschau@mastodon.social]

@marekfort

Those under 18 years of age have limited legal capacity and require the consent of their legal guardian(s).

[davey_cakes@mastodon.ie]

@dfyx @marekfort yeah and it's probably only a matter of time til the IDE starts doing kinky roleplay with users

[tsturm@famichiki.jp]

@marekfort @gereon That’s the stupidest thing I’ve seen all day, and I did check the news.

/sarcasm
To be fair, C++ IS danger to any mind. (just working on project in C++)

[brad@1040ste.net]

@marekfort Zed's dead, baby, Zed's dead.

(I have no idea what this Zed is, if it's "AI" bullshit though bring on the bit bucket.)

@marekfort

Just a moment...

[oblomov@sociale.network]

@ParadeGrotesque @marekfort taking bets it's because of some new “AI integration” feature

[bruce@darkmoon.social]

@Someplaceunknown @marekfort

We're protecting them kids so goddamn hard, they'll never learn anything that could possibly help them in the future.

We're still letting them get raped by rich assholes, though. Don't get too excited.

[feral_3d@mastodon.social]

@marekfort Jesus. We need to make our own boot loaders, don't we.

[leobm@norden.social]

@marekfort At school in the 90s, we still wrote our code on paper in exams (computer science), for example.

In retrospect, I didn't think it was so bad. You had to think about the problem much more carefully before writing code.

Okay, but the age limit for an editor is nonsense.
