I think what he is trying to say is, that developers will be useless dead weight in this kind of post apocalyptic scenario. Everybody will be out of there norma

  Am I one of the rare developers that grew up in rural USA that has remnants of what are now known as survival skills but I just consider as childhood fun? I always tell my team that if things go bad then I'll be the one keeping them alive.

      I like my team, I'll keep them alive. That way when society returns our children will be able to take over our webdev duties.

  We are not dependent upon any specific technology. We are "fixers", and computers are just our hammer that makes everything else look like a nail. Take them away, and the other, lesser tools in the toolbox are still there. I intend to attach myself to a raider strongman, to provide solutions to their difficult problems, such as how to crack an entrenched survivalist's defenses and get his stockpile out. I'm a decent hand at basic chemistry, too, like organic extractions and distillations. There are many potential princes, and Machiavelli only needs one of them.
