I guess my point was more about it being an issue in professional settings as well, where the people should be technical.

One of technology's biggest achievements is making it such that someone who doesn't care how something works doesn't need to worry about that in order to use it.

Oh aye, I do get where you're coming from.

The company I work for is run by a guy who wishes it was the '70s still, so it's been an uphill battle to introduce some level of technology into our workflows. We're getting there bit by bit, but I still get regularly blindsided by people who just don't know how certain technologies work, and worse; don't really care to learn. I'm talking about people who don't know how to scan a QR code to access a form we need them to input data into, that kind of thing.

That shit keeps me honest, and helps me to remember that while I might know to use SSH to run tasks on a little server I have at work, most people barely know more than how to access Facebook. But that's fine, because some of those guys in the workshop can do things with an engine that mystifies me.
