Me? I'm a freelancing programmer.

[Which is cool and all. It's one of his career goals back home. But well, he only works if he have commissions.]

But when I'm not programming, I work in either retail or tech support.

[Ooh, freelancing. She likes the sound of that.]

I think I'm not sure that I know what a programmer is. [Lots of words for "what's that?", Torri.] To me, it sounds like it could be some kind of scientist or researcher.

[Which could either be good or bad... But she was still getting good vibes off of him.]

Is being a freelancing programmer hard to do? Is it fun?

They can work in similiar fields, but it is fun! Even when programming gets very challenging at times.

[Hm. How to explain programming? The usual way, he suppose.]

Do you know what computers are? [If she does, it'll make explaining things easier for him. If not, he can use the PokeGear as his example.]
asabird: (i have like 216 kids)

I think that being challenging is part of the fun. Wouldn't it be boring if everything was easy instead?

[She nods. They used those in the lab, too, though most of them were a lot bigger than pokegear, or even the PCs in the centers, sometimes.]
babel_hacker: (Cheerful | I got an idea!)

[personal profile] babel_hacker 2015-05-04 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. If things get boring, you'd want to find more exciting and challenging things to brighten things up.

[She knows computers. That make things easier to explain.]

Programming is creating programs that can run on machines like computers, especially important ones that computers need to do any work. Programmers are people who make those programs!

[Torri takes some time to think about that, swaying to gently rock the egg as she stared up at the sky. It was easier to think that way, with such a pleasant color above her and none of the busyness that most life had. When she's apparently made peace with his words, she returns her gaze to the older.]

Hmmn. I think that's good. Even if sometimes the programs can be used for things that aren't good at all... You didn't decide on that. It also probably means you're really intelligent, doesn't it?
