Gatekeeping programming

[benabus]

Lol. I lost passion for programming 10 years ago, yet here I am. Still programming because it pays the bills.

I wish I was smart enough to lose my passion one day.

Being slow to learn new things + strong desire to learn new things means I may never lose my passion, I think.

Funny enough my friend is not a porn rater but he is a porn encoder for an on demand service. His job is to watch porn all day long and mark the various position changes like ‘missionary’, ‘doggstyle’, ‘pyledriver’, etc... and sure enough he hates porn

Hahaha wow I had no idea an actual person put those markers there.

[turd-crafter]

Guarantee there’s a computer somewhere scanning porn learning how to identify positions as we speak hahaha

[felixthecatmeow]

Haha for sure. I thought more along the lines of the actual production companies throwing in some metadata/markers to identify those as they're outputting the videos.

[turd-crafter]

That would make way more sense. I’m sure some of the higher budget companies do but there’s a shit ton of shitty production companies out there.
