How should software bloat be punished?
>>102417144They should be hanged, rendered, and bit shifted twice to the right
>>102417144forced to develop everything on a computer from 2006 so they learn constraint
>>102417144State-mandated freetardism. You can use Trisquel on a librebooted X200, no other devices allowed. Like >>102417234 but worse (for them.)
>>102417234Force them to write STM32 microcontroller firmware so they have to account for every kilobyte of memory.
>>102417144Bottom surgery
DEATH
>>102417144bloat? hand over your Apple II, anon.Now segfaults, they should be punished by a bomb going off under the programmer's chair. That'll do wonders for code quality.
>>102417144To punish a developer, you must think like a developer. Force them to attend one major league baseball game, sober, without their phone.
>>102417234I think you meant 1982.
>>102417144Stuff the developers' faces with beans, taco bell, ginger ale, cabbage, mountain dew, and pop rocks all at once. Deny them bathroom breaks>Do you feel that? Do you feel it? That is how computers feel when they run your shitty code.
>>102417363Fun Fact: MLB no longer lets you into stadiums without a smartphone. You can't print off a paper ticket anymore, they have a mobile app and that's the only supported thing. In any case, a sensory-deprivation chamber would work a lot better.
itt do nothings mad at people getting shit done
>>102417234unironically i'd love to develop on a shitty xp machine. then again i don't program bloat lmao.
>>102417487Dev gets locked in a cell, not allowed to get out until his EXE runs on 640 KB RAM :)
>>102417840that fact wasn't very fun
>>102417840That's low even for sportsball fans
>>102417144No downloads, no license purchases. It should only result in a waste of the dev's resources.
>>102417887Then do it. They're cheap. Its the nice ones that get scalped.

the problem is, devs aren't forced to use their own slop. they all just develop slop for someone else
>>102417144Blame the Americans with their bigger is better and it's big so it must be good.
I wouldn't be surprised if climate-concerned governments started handing out fines one day.

>>102418175>#include <vector>>24,242 lines of code after preprocessingNo wonder C++ takes so long to compile.
