I've been writing software since I was 12 years old; I build and have built technology for all my adult life, and I still try to use the non-self checkout option and non-automated systems in stores as much as possible (to keep the checkers in the loop and employed). Fully automated everything isn't a benefit to society, it's only a benefit to the top of the pyramid, folks. The prices don't go down, the choices don't get better, those profits are not reinvested into benefit for the customer. So, don't be so fast to tell me to use the self checkout line, because it's faster. (yeah yeah, that's what your manager tells you).
