Who of course, would be immediately obsoleted by the Chinese, who skip the unlucky number 13 and therefore have 14 skills.

If by skills, we mean this is something we rely on as a profession, I'm happy to let the robot take these jobs. As long as I can handle tapping, scrolling, and clicking, I'm good to go.

Edit: Or I can get better at Vim controls and toss out scrolling and clicking.

13 is only unlucky for Christians, because of the Last Supper.

14 is unlucky for Chinese, because it sounds like 'is dead'.

A talented Chinese Christian might skip both and go directly to 15 skills.
