I don&#x27;t get it. When I was 14, hacking on a Commodore 64, I didn&#x27;t know a soul around for miles who knew a thing about programming. I once pestered my chemistry teacher because rumor had it that he knew C. But I knew plenty of people on BBS and usenet forums. That was my developer community.<p>It&#x27;s SOOOOOO much easier nowadays. Everything&#x27;s at your fingertips. There are literally hundreds of communities a URL away. There are more tutorials than you can shake a stick at. You don&#x27;t even need to special order books from obscure sellers and wait weeks for it to be in stock anymore! Hell, you can even video conference with people, doing hackathons over google hangouts!<p>In fact, that&#x27;s the main reason why I&#x27;ve moved TO a small town. I work from remote, and live on a farm.<p>I don&#x27;t mean to say &quot;kids these days&quot;, but seriously...
