@Nsr__7 Lol. Told one of them sometime back.

He froze on the spot 😂
I GIVE YOU MY SECOND ALBUM- On The Road.
We were ‘Homeless’ together 2years ago, and now we are ‘On The Road’ side by side like we have always been.
These are the stories, the emotions that i felt On The Road.
So it was around 2002 when Steve Jobs was working on the whole iTunes and music-buying idea. The major issue then was that they wanted to price a song at $0.99, and while that wasn’t a problem on its own, the issue was the transaction fees associated with payment platforms (fixed fee + % fee, sometimes capped).
So imagine if you do a $0.99 transaction, almost all the money could disappear in charges alone.
So the solution was to create an aggregate billing system. Let’s keep the micropayments from a user in a floating state and add their other purchases to it later, so we can submit the bill as one single transaction. That way, $0.99 can turn into $4 or more.
It’s a long story, read this : https://t.co/7SbkknUfzc
@favorativie@Joe_brendan_ Fair point, for landing most frontend jobs in 2026, yeah… But if you ever touch AWS (which a huge % of React/Node apps do once they scale past localhost + Vercel/Netlify), the “nice to have” foundation from C or any other OOP language suddenly stops feeling optional.
@favorativie@Joe_brendan_ Understanding how computers and memory actually work (pointers, allocation, stack vs heap, etc.) from learning C properly gives you a much stronger foundation for architecting good software even in high-level languages like JavaScript
