For this to be plausible satire, they need to show how they've trained their models to code, without mit, apache, bsd or GPL/agpl code being in the training set...
Javascript handling in Rails was easy in the early versions, then became messy with the asset pipeline and webpacker, and is becoming simple again with the latest versions
Current racket is running on top of chez scheme - which is maintained by Cisco - and reportedly extensively used in commercial products (router firmware/os etc).
It was brought into Cisco to do that but the project was eventually shelved, which was a shame because the prototypes delivered some really interesting reliability features. Most Cisco hardware products run firmware written in C. Management systems are often Java and (increasingly) Go. Clojure is used for one of the security product lines, but that was developed as a startup that was later purchased by Cisco. One of the management systems, NSO, is written in Erlang (brought in through the tail-f acquisition). There are certainly a lot of people in Cisco that understand the power of Lisp (I was one), but they are spread out and surrounded by people that just want to push whatever the latest thing is (now Go). C.f. the blub paradox and “worse is better.” They have a lot of legacy code that was written over the last 30 years that powers their devices, and that’s all in C.
I think when you've realized that you don't particularly enjoy being alone - the best cure is to avoid it; and try to get more friends.
Friends are made by doing something together, regularly, over time.
I wouldn't call this "get a hobby" - I'd call it "find something to do".
My best suggestion is start doing some kind of organized training like martial arts, or some team sport. Find somewhere to volunteer: food bank, volunteer programs teaching kids to code, anything in your area that you can relate to.
I'm not suggesting that it easy or trivial - but I also believe it is the only way.
You can authorize via Apple Watch everything you can authorize via Touch ID. You get the notification on the Watch, and you need to press the button twice to auth.
I don't remember if it works every time, or only when MacBook is closed and connected to external display/keyboard.
