This is it. This is the answer. It's shameful that nobody else here gets it.
Many of these people are autistic and/or ADHD. Autism, ADHD, and job interviews do not mix. The prejudice against these groups that's baked into the process (for no real gain) is unbelievable.
It's a self-contained application using the Dear ImGUI library rather than a bloated framework, and is designed for a single language. It's not simple compared to the likes of vi, sure, but it's almost certainly many less lines of code and much more architecturally simple than just about any other (popular, in-use) IDE out there.
Nothing is stopping it from going faster, unless the framerate is forcibly capped by the developer. It renders the same way a framerate-independent 3D game does.
In Plan 9's Acme, the mouse is your edit mode, the keyboard is your insert mode. I find I'm about as fast for most tasks in Acme as I was in Vim (after using it for years).
Part of that was the widespread use low-resolution, high refresh rate, zero-latency (CRT) monitors, and the use of hardware interrupts instead of a serial bus for input.
>The Headcannon Game Engine, HCGE for short, has been in development for over a decade by an '80s kid raised with classic computer and game console hardware. Borne from a deep fascination with these machines and a thorough respect for the developers who could make the best of them, HCGE is highly specialized for getting the most out of the 2D realm on today's hardware; Retro sensibility meets modern raw power!
Bitcoin would be great for this in theory, but the problem is that customers will not pay you in Bitcoin. People want their porn and they want it now, that's why they're paying. If you don't make it practically seamless for a layman to pay you for your porn, they're either pirating it or looking elsewhere. Sure, a few people might pay, but you're looking at probably a 50-75% revenue loss, best case.
"The UNIX command line and most programming languages are ineffective and slow tools, because they do not make use of the brain’s ability to process visual inputs quickly in parallel and contextualize large amounts of details into a cohesive idea."
"Too much reading!"
"Linux programmers are stupid."
This reads like satire. Surely this must be satire?
Sometimes that's razor-thin margins. Sometimes it lets you get away with high margins.
