Kaczynski:
Are you tripping?? Who says systems does not pay ??


I don nearly show you my paycheck because of this.

I'm curious, what kind of companies offer systems level roles and what are you usually expected to do


Also I'm assuming the scheduler you were talking about is an OS scheduler

Pretty impressive work

Everyone is on the web and no one bothers to lean into something as useful as low level programming, I've come to realise that people have this unnecessary fear of the C programming language even though it's extremely easy to learn and use.

One would think people who do actual stuff like kernel/operating system development, driver and module programming or just anything outside of web development would dominate tech conversations but it's almost always web bros screaming at each other at the top of their lungs while no one actually listens (see twitter).

Why is this so? The issue of financial instability is not an excuse here because you're not actively purchasing hardware like the guys into IOT or robotics, all you need is a C compiler (or Rust, Odin, Zig or whatever you're using) and maybe a VM (if you're developing os breaking software)
