I've longed to work the fields with my hands and simple tools because the fields don't fucking spit out meaningless gibberish when I'm just trying to get them to process a simple text field, and my hands don't have documentation apparently written by a distracted seven year old.

And while the living off the land will certainly kill me due to my own incompetence, nature will have the decency to just eat my corpse and not gloat over my failure repeatedly in a hung CI/CD process for the rest of eternity.

As a farmer, I somewhat disagree. Weeds, fungus, and all kinds of shit pops out of there.
