So if you don't know what CI is, what does "I am someone in tech", mean? Marques Brownlee probably doesn't know CI is, but he's also in tech. Because if you by mean "I am in tech" that "I am a software engineer", and you don't know what CI is, then boy; I'd be worried for you.
CI is really only significant on the programming side of things. Networking, systems administration, hardware, etc often don’t have that workflow.
