I had an internship 15 years ago where I was forced to write C++ with no internet access. I had to use a programming manual and man pages.

25 years ago I was writing code in a paper notebook, sometimes while riding the bus. The only computer access was at college and it was easier to work through the code on paper and then quickly transcribe it once I got on campus.

Yeah, things are a bit more complicated now, but in other ways they are sooooo much easier. The fact that people are using chatGPT to 'program' is just crazy from my perspective.
