    “Call it what you like, you’re still going to need us” Code.

    It’s just really high level BASIC with much looser syntax. It doesn’t mean my boss could use it, any more than they could use the “no code” rubbish, BASIC, C, Fortran or Assembly that came before it.

    If your job was taking really detailed technical specifications and turning it into something a computer can read, then you might be in trouble. But my job was always deciphering the nonsense amalgamations of customers, sales people, and managers, figuring out what the actual requirement is, determine the simplest thing that could handle that, and write it in such a way that the inevitable changes that they request won’t be too painful to add.

    Clippy coding! Newer coders won’t get the reference, older coders can hold it with the same scorn.

    I like to pronounce it very German in my environment, which becomes Klaut Kot. Steals Feces. It’s quite fitting tbh.

    Script Kiddie is the derogatory term for hackers that download tools and have no idea what they are doing.
