I feel like the people I interact with irl don’t even know how to boot from a USB. People here probably know how to do some form of coding or at least navigate a directory through the command line. Stg I would bet money on the average person not even being able to create a Lemmy account without assistance.
I am not tech literate like most programmers or coders, but I can look up things and read. Usually covers most of my needs overall, so it’s better than nothing. Where I work I am seen as on par with any IT person but I just literally read instructions and follow them. Tried to explain it, but they treat it like I was blessed by the tech gods or something.
I’m almost offended for my profession. Most of the programmers I know are quite tech literate, to the point it floors me when I find a coworker who is tech illiterate. Like, bro, it’s literally our job.
If you can do this you are better than, must tech supports i have worked with.
