Imagine this. The scene is one of a room full of twenty Agile Programmers (who may not be any good at all). There are two Scrum Masters and the Agile Coach. They are across realtime data tracking 150,000 objects, such as, people.
In a different world. There is free software voice-recognition (after a long slog to transition from nonfree). The secretaries from the 1980s interact with Emacs on data of equal size and complexity (and there are no charlatans at Theranos which is showing signs of success after a long slog :-).
