#2In other news Excel has replaced 1,000s of programmers. So sick of this lame tech worker bias with these "poors" jobs. These posts on HN really reinforce every stereotype toward tech culture. Please stop posting and upvoting this crap.

It's news of change; the article didn't seem like it had too much of a slant.

I read the article carefully, and I didn't see any of the slant you did. It was just an interesting article on how automation is moving deeply into a new field. And, as pmarca has constantly reminded us, once you've got automation, you've got software - and so this is yet another place in which software is eating the world.

This story is the latest confirmation of a worldchanging trend that YC companies (and their ilk) should be thinking about a lot.
Your Excel analogy is apt -- just as a tech investor or startup founder in 1990 needed to be aware of the revolutionary impact programs like Excel were having on the world of business, or one in 2010 needed to be aware of the ways software is eating the world, in 2015 they need to be in touch with the ways mechanization et al are on their way to changing everything.
