This is hilarious because I can attest to this. I took a class where we were partially graded on security - part of that was proper SQL parameterization. Half of my team couldn’t / wouldn’t be bothered to do so. It was just impossibly hard to get them to do so, almost as if I was asking them to do 10 pushups for every line of code.

I fiddled with TI BASIC in school and wrote a horrifying abomination that ran Minesweeper. Complete with 3x3 clearing and flagging. Calc 1 was my free period.
/rant Assuming you’re in the US, though it applies elsewhere, but an energy/transportation revolution would be much nicer. I don’t see much of a point with electric vehicles if that renewable energy is going into businesses and homes anyways - there is no surplus of renewables that electric vehicles can use and claim “net 0.” Most of our electricity is from fossil fuels and yeah renewables reduce that - nice! For now, nuclear is unfortunately too close to home for most people and we are going to struggle more with ineffective alternatives. I think electric vehicles are nice, but they represent a technological feat, not a social one. Technology is much easier to engineer and is thus much less impressive or impactful than a social feat like pushing for nuclear or geothermal. /unrant
