Yup, the "GUIs are for people who don't want to invest the time and effort in trying to find out how something really works." attitude makes my eyes roll. Just because I don't have to send emails like:

gmail send --email recipient:a@a.com message:who the hell would want to send emails like this

Doesn't mean I don't understand how emails work or how to use them. We developed GUIs in, like, the 1970s for a reason? Perhaps the world of programming needs to catch up a bit.
