A couple of good size porjects. One was code a ball clock, and show the stage of the ball after N iterations (http://www.idle-tyme.com/). Another, was code a bulding (or building) with elevators, picking up people and showing traces - one difficulty was pick up people if you happen to be going past them while an existing elevator is moving. Or how would you code a app that looks up words while punching them using a phone 10 digit pad.

That didn't really answer the original question. Kinda like people that assume a programming error, rather then "Reading the error, and fixing the error".

Who uses Emacs anymore? And I hate people who think they know everything.
The more I know, the more I know I don't know.

Most people haven't. We do exist, I know a few.

Sort of like a teenager thinks their parents don't know anything. Everyone sees things differently.

Interesting statement. Many of existing apps for large, high paying, companies have been running for more than 5 years. And moving them to newer technolgies may require knowledge of both. Another example of more than 5 years being useful, is the build of of knowledge, such as obscure Unix commands, of which the process of learning almost never ends. Think of EMacs, no one is going to learn Emacs in a week and be any good at it. Anyway, you are correct in that most (younger) people, I feel, think the same way you do.

Really? Why? What if one is currently programming on some of the latest atuff Aurora, AWS, docker, etc. That's not outdated, at least, in a literal sense.
Told you I was new at this. Thanks! I modified the original post.
