I just had to explain what a 22 bit subnet is to a developer instead of sleeping. My opinion of programmers was already low, but now I think y'all shouldn't be allowed to have human rights.

I don't think that is true, every book I encounter still mentions hexadecimal, binary and all that — how would you even explain binary AND, OR, bit shifting operations to people who don't get it at all. How would you expect them to understand extracting the least significant bit if they don't understand all of the above?

I'm reading a book on Rust now and it explains how CPU works — in very simple terms, but the reader is encouraged to extrapolate that. It explains how memory is laid out, the difference between virtual and physical RAM, the stack, the heap — all of that. There are those who just write JS, but is that true that they really never go beyond that?
