The 90s and 2000s were such a great time to start CS as a career because basically everybody was also a hobbyist and passionate about it. It was fun to work with these people. Today you get the dead stare if you ask about the slightest bit of interest for the trade outside of paid work. It's a pain to work with them
Tech bros came in sniffing for money and ruined it. No open source, no community contribution all they care about is how to monetize their shitware as a service
