I think I'm tired of this shit. Everything in America has to be fun, and
easy, or we spoiled Americans can't be bothered.

Writing trivial and shitty code is easy. Writing quality code that works
well for the end-user is hard and not fun.

I work in a numerical modeling group of 20 engineers. We all have
graduate degrees. 5 Americans, 15 foreign-born, the youngest American is
late 40s. Americans under age 35 just won't work for a damn thing.
