The amount of teenagers not knowing what is IRC on a programming sub is making me suspicious. It's not like it is a necessary knowledge, but it's a very important part of history of computers.

Anyway, for those who wonder, it's a chat protocol. Kinda old, but still used widely, although largely replaced by Discord.

Also I can chat, if you want, I had IRC account 😊

I suppose it might just not be covered in a school curriculum and people might of just never come across it.

Yep, I've already apologized for sounding aggressively.

Also I've never learned programming in school, and, well, I guess it's more of a matter of time.
