If you don't actually write code, you're not a real computer scientist.

Has this old fucker even written *any* code in the last 30 years?

No such thing exists, same as software engineer of whatever. It's self proclamation.
You're just IT guy.

No point writing code anymore. Jeets use AI to steal it and you won't even get credit for it.

i still have no context for this but after learning what scientist actually do or used to do back in the day, yes, it absolutely is about science and computers

He invented C and Unix and created first Linux (Minix).

"Writing code" = applying what real scientists discovered or invented. Coding a CRUD is not science.

Nah, I've come up with what I believe are novel algorithms while implementing solutions to weird problems. I didn't read it from a paper and I didn't write a paper about it.
