> Why they haven't come out with a native version of SC is completely beyond me. Yes, my last position before I retired was as a VP of software development at a cryptography company, so I know the level of effort required.

since when do VPs know about engineering, oh wait they don't, above is another proof

> SC is completely beyond me.

Because you have no idea that SC uses the WIN32 API and they need wine to be able to run.

Let me explain this to you in Layman's terms Mr. VP aka Mr. Beyond Me:

They use the WIN32 API in Windows for SC and for Linux they would need to migrate this to POSIX for system calls and GTK/Qt for GUIs.

Despite your stupidly insulting snark (which exposes your emotional immaturity), I've been writing code since before you were born, so I am VERY well aware of how the Win32 API works.

What a completely irrational post. Grow up, willya?

You being a VP and writing hello world is not a technical argument. Go away and do some zoom meetings and let the adults talk here.

I am just enlightening the VP to his `beyond me` remark why there is no native linux SC program.

I hope he got the message but I'm affraid he's too ignorant to understand simple technical explenations.

I think he's just used to people saying Yes to him and behind his back thinking, what an idiot. Just like I did listening to this dimwit.

I agree. There's nothing wrong with writing 'Hello World!' programs. In fact, I enjoy them. LOL

What you are trying to proof here is `beyond me`

Can you show me on the doll where they touched you when you were little? That might help you move forward in life.

I don't have to prove anything to anyone, least of all you. Go fuck yourself.

Spoken like a true useless tech VP, this is glorious, thank you.
