Tech Wobblies
Is automation taking over Systems Administration? Are highly skilled SysAdmin jobs (and their highly skilled SysAdmins) becoming obsolete? What is to become of the Non-Profit SysAdmin? Are we all going to become Mechanical Turks? Or should tech workers become Wobblies? Who are the Wobblies? Is the tech industry ready for collective action?
We're joined by special guest Sean Howard at our round table to discuss the state of the tech industry, the working conditions for tech workers, and what can be done about it.
