So many IT fags have very limited perspective. They think in terms of their little networks. Can't grasp the real picture of how data is really collected. Some will never understand, cause their minds won't let them.
They do get very opinionated, and obnoxious about their knowledge, don't they?
Too true, anon. And, as the number of users affected, the craziness is exponentially increased.
Agree. Many so called IT fags are either posers, or pigeonholed, even if they themselves don't know it. For the reasons you stated, and others. One of the other reasons is they are not used to being challenged about their area of expertise. Or, if they truly are an IT fag for 25 years, they can get very complacent about their "so called knowledge". They many times are thinking about how networks functioned 20 + years ago, not now.
Very hard for most people in IT. They are geeks, with very limited social skills, mostly. Their whole sense of self is wrapped up in their "superior knowledge" of their area of expertise. For them to admit to just anyone they are wrong, threatens that sense of self, or superior knowledge.
That also describes many other fields of employment, right? Are you railing against all job specialization, or just IT?
Unfortunately the software and hardware industry problems drive almost all the need for IT, imo.
I see the logic. Not sure there would ever be no need for IT. Would be a very good goal to have in fixing the software and hardware industries, though.
