I have lately thought about how the only tech I am interested in now is to assist programming. Programming for programming. Eternal yak shaving. And a big part of that is that end-user digital technology is a dystopia. No, not dystopic, not going in a bad direction. Just dystopia. Vultures and thugs at every corner preying on every “convenience” and mistake that you could make.

It is also good for mindless entertainment in between the real things that sometimes happen. And listening to music.

Could you give some specific examples?

		I'm not OP, but I took their comment to mean things like internal dev tooling. Kind of stuff platform engineering focuses on

		For example version control. That’s the kind of the thing that I read about and want to program myself. Things that have nothing to do with end-user software.
