All-nerds, Responsibility, and Systems

Many tales of woe (see https://rachelbythebay.com/w/2022/02/09/nice/ for a good sysadm one, or the syndicated loan problem in the original DDD book) could have been avoided by people striving to learn all they can. I guess though that this is tech's Eternal September: we have too many problems, so people want to minimize the amount of work required to understand a system.

Maybe things will be better in the future?
