programming hipster

Millennial generation. Street clothing at all times. Hardware stack is entirely Apple-based. High concentrations exist in Shoreditch of London and Bay Area of San Francisco.
I went to a software conference last week and there was so many programming hipsters there talking about their shitty dynamically typed languages.
