Sometimes I feel like a lot of those posts are instances of Kent Brockman: "I for one, welcome our new insect overlords."

Given the enthusiasm of our ruling class towards automating software development work, it may make sense for a software engineer to publicly signal how much onboard as a professional they are with it.

But, I've seen stranger stuff throughout my professional life: I still remember people enthusiastically defending EJB 2.1 and xdoclet as perfectly fine ways of writing software.
