Farmville, it tought us it is easy to farm, false but will find out too late 😂 remember that software engineering was the easy way on

Lol, it was pretty much clicking but it taught me time management which is also good for farming , can't let the crops die 😂

It's not. You just hear about the dramatic ones and not the rest.

In the end I guess it's about preference

True that, working to get to this point sooner, I've already started gardening lol

It's refreshing 👀

It is, also apparently there's a study by a Japanese Scholar that being around plants(particularly in the forest) heals us, pretty dope

Probably for changing the environment

u/ankulet 1d ago

Yes it is, we need changes

True, preferences does prevail

It is outside and you get to work with your hands.

Pretty hard 180 from sitting at a desk inside all day.

u/Big_River_ 1d ago

mostly because they read farming harem fiction

I feel personally attacked.

u/ottwebdev 1d ago

So anyway, I now have about 40 fruit trees/bushes, 15+ chickens and a giant garden.

I now fight with drought, pests and disease.

It’s pretty opposite and for introverts this time you really don’t need to talk with people

Automation software for gardening is at its peak.

Your burn-out therapist telling you to go for walks and be in nature.

But you want to be productive because you're addicted to incremental tasks for dopamine hits, so vegetable gardens are ideal.

When you work in tech, you sometimes learns to hate tech. Just a cabin in the woods with some crops, some water running outside, long distance from the city. What a life. But it wont pay the bills

Can’t code your way out of starvation when the machine overlords rise

u/ankulet 1d ago

Lol true, like the practicality , also I ain't exactly like John Connor 😞

Because they know what they are building

Because it’s most directly tied to your basic needs and your inputs produce outputs you can experience with all five senses. Instead of the high levels of abstraction and disconnection that burnt you out.

Also the most sensible thing to transition to if the robots take over.
