The government helped them: built a hospital, a fresh water supply, sent them food and all. At the beginning everything was ok, but then something odd started happening: the men started drinking, fighting and all sorts of nasty stuffs. They lost their way of life. They had nothing to do all day. The time spent hunting and foraging was now spent drinking. A few years later they abandoned this all and went back to their old lives, now everybody is happier than ever. Hey, all I do is code for 16-20 hours a day. Then I go to sleep. It's my job, just like it's that women's job to carry water. If one day somebody came to me and said "You don't have to write code anymore, here's a code pipe", I'd be lost. I don't know anything else to do. I've been coding almost all my life. I'd probably start drinking...

Hey, all I do is code for 16-20 hours a day. Then I go to sleep. It’s my job, just like it’s that women’s job to carry water. If one day somebody came to me and said “You don’t have to write code anymore, here’s a code pipe”, I’d be lost. I don’t know anything else to do. I’ve been coding almost all my life. I’d probably start drinking…
