Neo-Victorian computing (2007)

Totally fine as long as I don't have to use or maintain anything they build.

There is certainly space for an elite and useless parasitic upperclass of programmers working on things that only appeal to them (which I assume is the portion of Victorian society he is referring to: during that period most people were involved in mindless drudgery on the factory floor.) There just isn't space where one expects to be paid.
