hugodrax:
Programmers are lazy, I mean before people actually did flow charts, documented stuff and could do wonders with 4K of ram. Now you need gigs of ram to do what back in the day 4-64K would be able to do.

aiken_d:
Are you kidding? 64k of ram? You must be one of those lazy programmers. When you had to manually mark off and punch out little holes in cards, it really encouraged efficiency. Things really started to go to hell with lazy people like you.
