Is this perspective so pervasive on this forum that no one's going to challenge these incredibly naive statements? The economy is intertwined with virtually all parts dependent on or at least benefiting from the others. Software contributes to increased efficiencies all across the economy; from food production to fuel consumption to medical diagnosis the world would be demonstrably worse of without it (and the people who wrote it).

- toomuchtodo 8y agoI would argue your fallacy is lumping people who work on software that matters (food, healthcare, government) with people who work at Facebook (which is arguably a cancer on society). Good software engineers are needed to work on problems that matter. Quite the delta from where we are today.
