There's a surprising amount of programmers that don't know basics of various parts of an operating system. I know people that know several languages, but get lost on installing a mod pack for a game or installing an app from within another app like a browser.

True. 100% Even today I had to screen share with our lead DB developer to show him how to create a key and ssh to a host.

Also worked with a guy who would design custom circuit boards for devices, but his windows skill was less than my mother's (which is terrible)
