Nobody telling you, so let's here ALLLL about the Windows shit you build and all the metrics.

C++, desktop scientific mathematical software for Windows.

By the way, you seem a bit on edge. You okay?

Disclaimer, I am using Linux at home and work, I work on a tangential thing to the rest of my team. I'm just saying, these are very much senior devs worth their salt, and that you made a bad take. But I do agree with you that Windows is not nice to work in.
