In any technology career, you are going to have to adapt to changes in technology. We went through the same transition from writing machine code to writing object oriented code. And from writing monoliths to writing micro services. You may not write code letter by letter the same way you used to. But your ability to adapt is your real value, not the code you can type from memory.

The only reason for this feature is to tattle on people who aren’t where they say they are.
