Plumber, Electrician... Digitician?

Alien54 writes "This article from the Sunday Boston Globe describes the rise of a new type of tradesman called, for lack of a better term, a digitician, a label describing the burgeoning army of overqualified, unemployed, or free-spirited computer technicians being deployed to front porches around the country."

    I find this such a pathetic comment on education and business.

    Look at all the people in school. When they graduate they should be able to cure diseases or invent spaceships. Look at all these people thinking they can just bank on their respectability and take over jobs doable by dumbasses.

    That is just selfish and cowardly.
