I don’t get why people are so bitter about this stuff. Jealousy, I guess?

Like, yeah productivity has exploded and now most office jobs that used to take hours of manual work, take minutes of digital labor.

But right, everyone else’s job is bullshit except the brave lowly programmer… who is probably totally ignorant of what everyone else’s job is, just like they are ignorant of the programmer’s job… it’s almost that’s why you need so many people doing so many specialized tasks.

But I get it, this is bait for the ‘engineer/programmers are the only really productive members of society’ crowd. And you wonder why most people think you’re insufferable twats with complexes…
