Alternative interpretation:
Software engineers rank highly in freedom from delusion and sharp awareness of human insignificance.
Of the 505 job titles surveyed, most clung tightly to the illusion that their actions had greater meaning beyond the receiving of their paychecks. Even telemarketers largely failed to distinguish between corporate hype and the grim reality of their actual accomplishments.

Quote: In other words, although someone may have a 40Gbps (gigabit per second) connection to the Internet through their ISP,

Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
