    Are there’s still manual production runs in the first world? The one machinist I know IRL does manual stuff now, but it’s all bespoke, and his colleagues sound like they might not have heard of CNC.

      There very much are still manual production runs. And even with CNC you sometimes wind up changing work every 12 seconds all day.
