I think it is. Before computers you would have had to write all that down on paper logs. By using code, you saved yourself time. If it wasn't less labor, you wouldn't have done it that way.

Before it was less labor, they might not have done it at all. Computers let you do things quicker. So you do more things.
Ok, then go work on homelessness or political corruption. It's not like we have a dearth of problems. Coding is solved.
How is coding “solved”? Even if you want to use an LLM, you still have to explain precisely what you want.
> Before computers
Computer used to mean "human who does math". Before machine computers, we had human computers. Machine computers replaced all of these human computers.
People *did* write down these logs, manually, and submit them.
And without software, what then, make a bunch of books and mail it to all these people? On this site of all sites, it's blowing my mind that this kind of thing isn't obvious to everyone. I guess maybe it isn't if you were born before the internet, but man, I'm really surprised by some of these comments.
We did allow people to send us letters with QSO logs on paper.
