I need a tech industry that doesn't make regular old software engineering that I've been doing for 20-ish years feel like the freakin' "I studied the blade" meme. Which, I forgot had the blockchain reference in it, that's so much funnier than I even remembered.

Literally all I'm doing is not falling for the most obvious attack on skilled labor I've seen in my lifetime and continuing to do business as usual without softening my head like butter in a microwave. That shouldn't be noteworthy or laudable! It feels boring (in a good way) to me! I'm not trying to be special by still having skills at the far end of the skillpocalypse, I am literally just not doing the dumbest option available to me. The fact that any of this is treated as controversial, regressive, Luddite, any of that stuff, has been a shocking correction to how I see the rest of the industry, who I wouldn't have naturally guessed would be this gullible.
