Not really. If the internet goes out in our office 100% of our programmers are going home. Doesnt make them bad, the internet is to useful to work without.

Yeah I'm kinda helpless if I can't get maven packages or check packages against the CVE database.

Exactly, it's how technological evolution works. We found a much more effective and productive way to work and live, so why would we revert back to the "old days".

Also doesn't mean people taught to use the internet in its full capacity are inferior - they're just focusing on what is important.
