    I used to write code all day, solving maths and logic problems which is what my brain loves to do, and so I loved my job. Now I talk to a robot all day, trying to figure out how be…

    You seem to have a wrong definition of operating system in your head. The definition of Operating System is "The main software that manages a computer's hardware and software." An …
