What is it with trannies and coding? - For real.

[Y2K Baby]

It's a bit of a weird stereotype but it's definitely a pattern. I have my own theories but I don't want to embarrass myself with long-winded self-indulgence. I'll just leave that for the usual suspects *Cough* @GethN7 *cough* and save my long-winded self-indulgent energy for more videogame talk.

Programming. They all seem really into it. Mainly with vidya but there are ton that just fiddle with it as a hobby.

I said this in another thread about why women AREN'T as into coding.
Autists like programming and not so much social interaction. Men are something like 4x more likely to be autistic than women. Also, trannyism is associated with autism. The link is autism. It's pretty simple.

To be fair, coding requires a lot of abstract thought in order to problem solve and the only good coders are ones who are really good at abstract problem solving. Which is to say, autistic trannies suck at programming.

 

[SeaPancake]

Huh, you're right. I know two trans people who are into coding.

 

[Autopsy]

Programming is an intellectual status symbol, appeals to many men inherently, appeals to women trying to appear to be male that don't want to be "manly", and has few clear distinctions between good and bad, mostly only functional and not functional. That last bit isn't even vaguely true, but when you consider how absolutely garbage nu-Silicon Valley is, it's easy enough to pretend it is.

Spoiler: offtopic

I don't understand how this is even possible. I've gone my entire life thus far without meeting even one, ignoring the internet.

programmers are more likely to feel like failed men because they're dorky guys who never fit in with other guys, are bad at sports and can't get chicks. thus, troonery.

it'd be interesting to study equally nerdy gay vs straight programmers for a certain amount of time and see who's more likely to troon out. i could be totally off base here, but i suspect very few of the gay ones would, because they already have an explanation for why they feel like a failed man, plus it's easier to get laid when you're gay.

But why is it almost always programming over literally every other STEM field (psyche doesn't count)

 

[Kamen]

I think the better question is why are they always obsessed with Dark souls?

it's something a lot of lonely teenage boys do as a hobby in high school.

plus my impression is that programming, of all STEM fields, has the fewest requirements for social skills, decent hygiene, and generally not being depressed since you can work from home, there's not a lot of begging for grant money, and you don't have to do lots of lab research collaboration

For starters women aren't exactly interested in tech. When they're not getting worthless degrees they are getting other kinds of degrees, degrees that have nothing to do with STEM. Being around the tech community online has helped make my troondar more accurate, as many troons tend to have interests biological women don't tend to have. If you see some obnoxious "geek chic" snowflake into tech with she/her pronouns and a ton of "Ree trump" rts, chances are their selfies will scream tranny if their voice doesn't already give it away.

Trooning out gives you all the benefits tech companies give women in tech (along with the other benefits you receive from being a troon in the west coast) without being a woman, especially since there are so few actual women with the same interests. Furthermore, a lot of programmers tend to be a lot like eggs, before they troon out. They lack social skills, hygiene, and likely already had a few screws loose.

When programmers troon out you get cases like Francis Rowe Leah Rowe , the Libreboot (FOSS boot firmware) dev who nearly rammed the project into the ground after another troon got fired from the FSF and went on a shitfit about how how much he hated the FSF and Richard Stallman for it. Or Tom Walker Sarah Walker, developer of PCem (a old PC emulator) who has a reputation of being a massive cunt, from power tripping on the forums to demanding people not share development builds (of a GPL project no less).

There's also the whole technology fetishism troons have, especially the programmer and larping cyberpunk troons who compare gender transitioning and HRT to "hacking biology" and body modifications, just like how furries will compare transitioning to transformation fetish art. Except instead of turning into Lain you turn into well:

But that’s awesome tho

Science and Tech require lab work, which is exacting and require specialized equipment. Coding requires just a computer. Higher math is beyond their mental capacities.

The beauty about coding is that, unlike art and writing, you can produce literally nothing for years without losing your cred. This is perfect for parasites, which these troons are.

Let's have a rollcall of the Rats who ever claimed to be a coder:
- Niraj Chaubal of Translifelines. I concede that this one is a legit coder, although @Null had looked into some code he wrote and tore it apart.
- Wesley "Laurelai" James Earl Bailey. This one seems to style himself more as a "n33t h@ck3r" than a coder.
- Jonathan Holliday ("Victoria Valimir"; Transethics). Claims to be coding a browser that would rival Safari. All his hard effort conveniently came to naught as his hard drive died.
- John Neumann ("Chloe Sagal"). Forgot what he claimed
- Kyle Brooks. Just claimed to be a coder.

Outside the Rat circle we have the famous Gozilla of Woman In Tech, Banana Wu; and the Grandaddy of Internet Troons, Jennifer Dianne Reitz.

Quoting myself:

This is so fucking true you have no idea. Actually, you might.

I would say the representation of transsexuals in technology surprasses women. That is not bullshit. Even fucking @KatsuKitty works professionally as a developer and is now claiming to be a woman.

It's all of them. Women, psychologically, rarely desire to sit in front of a computer for 18 hours a day. I've been working on our migration to XF2 recently. You know what that looks like?

Fun right? Not really. It's just something I do.

See this bitch? You think she wants to sit in front of a computer and focus on code all day? No. She can manage schedules and handle emails and priority action-item agenda lists, because that sort of shit is what she's comfortable with, but women don't like to be put into a situation where if they don't sit down and do it hours at a time it never, ever gets done. Very few actually do.

So you need women in your work force and you want a tax break, but you also need someone who can sit and write code. What is the solution to this question?

And really, all trannies I think about have some form of technical experience. Nina Chaubal, Nekoarc, Laurelai, Katsu, etc they are all this weird hybrid of woman/man/software developer.


AND THAT'S WHY I KNOW THEY'RE COMING FROM ME KEEP THOSE FUCKING SOYBEANS OUT OF MY FUCKIN FACE

 

[OwO What's This?]

Eesh, maybe looking into learning php isn't the best idea...

 

[JaneThough]

It’s easier on you when your tits are coming in, but that beards not going away to have a job that lets you hide in a basement

 

[The Shadow]

To be perfectly honest, you can call yourself a "coder" without any real qualifications. Wrote a "Hello World" program? Congrats, coder. In my Twitter days I recall a lot of them calling themselves "engineers", too, but they seemed to spend more time bleating in 140 characters than drawing free-body diagrams.

I think mostly it's just a bunch of hogwash intended to increase techie cred.

 

[Philosophy Zombie]

Trans women are deeply obsessed with the Python language as it encompasses all sides of the Freudian gestalt—that which they want but cannot have—that which they have but do not want—and the reptilian id, that tells them to destroy all that is unsatisfactory in their lives. Destruction brings creation.

 

[Dysnomia]

Maybe because they get more accolades as a woman in tech than they would as just a generic man. But I hate it when they get accomplishments like "First woman to _____". That's taking away from the accomplishments of actual women in tech. Imagine struggling to get recognition only to have a tranny pop up and get it instead.

You make a crappy Twine reading simulator and you are a game dev now. People might as well call themselves coders because they can change the text color on a page using CSS or HTML instead of the template menu. Yeah. Big time code master. She can even change the font size!

Being a coder has lost a lot of meaning because now everyone likes to claim they can do it for cred when they are just playing around with little things rather than spending hours upon hours writing programs.
