    I was in high school when the demoscene took off in the 80s. It forever tainted my view of software development as full of lazy programmers not bothering to optimize code as hardware got better and better. Myself included.

      I founded a demoscene club in college and it was always whiplash to go from the code I saw at our end-of-year demoparty and whatever crap I saw during my summer internships

    Demoscene is still a thing!
