I was surprised that they gossiped about him specifically for being a programmer like it was such a prestigious job,
and not just "he used to be an employee at a big company"

Wasn't it "A programmer at a big company"? I mean, to be a programmer in a big company nowaday is not as easy as you would like to think. But to be fair, the rank of the programmer can really varies, from "The company can't run without you" to "You're just another skilled labor."

How does one v-tube as a runaway?
That was better than I was expecting.

But if she's been a runaway for several days ... is she streaming from the "internet cafes & karaoke places"???
with how good just nowadays camera filters in smartphones,
and all those AI generated thing
I wouldn't be surprised if there will be a lot IRL v-tuber stream with streamer bag or something

(wait, can a v-tuber do IRL?)

Poor guy got blindsided by his girlfriend and then labeled as the cheater. Hopefully, both the boss and girlfriend get some karma in the future. It will be interesting to see him get back up on his feet and out of depression. Absolute banger of a first chapter

is programming not considered a respectable job over there?

i mean, i knew japan stigmatises the weirdest of things, but that just seems straight up illogical considering how sought-after the position is here in the west.

i do both on a daily basis, there's a fairly important system that would probably fail were i not here to take care of it but there's another system that we also work on that probably wouldn't even hitch if i were gone lmao

well, I wouldn't say that it is not respectable or anything
(I haven't really met any Japanese who dissed me for that)

it's just that I feel easier to just say that I am a Software Engineer or System Engineer because it's in my job title
I don't think your job title will be a programmer unless you are a contract (temp) job
and even if I were one, if I were to introduce myself to my girlfriend's family, much less her uncle, I would've just say I'm an employee in this so-and-so company

people here make no distinction in how they treat engineers vs programmers (if anything programmers are held at slightly higher regard lol), most people mentally just lump programmers in together with engineers,

haha, yeah, I also used to just say I'm a programmer back in my home, just because it's shorter to say
I just do what I see my friends did here
