This reminds me of another time... Let's travel back to 1980 and interview a local grey beard:
Everything these days is shell scripts! They are even selling them like they have the same value as a C program! csh will never be real C. The kids have no idea what a stack is or how to optimize system calls. The performance is awful and they barely work! The way scripts spawn processes can bring a multi-user terminal system to its knees!
I mean, sure, I write some scripts now and then, but the real logic always goes in C. And just the other day my boss gave me a shell script he coded over the weekend and said putting it in production should be easy!
Over the weekend I was checking out BSD and I couldn't believe the number of scripts I found. I fear for the future of my career and computer science in general. Our field might die out before it can even get off the ground.
