    Another way to be a class traitors or to betray and bully your fellow workers? Call them “technicians”, meaning that their work is boring and doesn’t require them to leave their comfort zone?

    I don’t know what is worse, making people learn how to do computer work in the first place (which is all just insanely ridiculous conventions other supposedly smart humans have invented but which then require ridiculous amounts of training to use effectively), or, pretending that the “ideal” is to build systems which are so self-sufficient that they eliminate any need for human operators or improvers and celebrating that as the ideal.
