If you think that techno-devops-millenials, by which I will assume you mean abstraction, means that understanding the underlying technology no longer matters I encourage you to read Verner Vinge's "A Deepness In The Sky", set in the far future, where the protagonist essentially triumphs because he knows unix.
The more we abstract and automate the more important it is that there are still people left who understand how the underlying technology actually works. Otherwise it's a simple case of "the smarter we become, the stupider we get." Case in point: why does no one seem to know how to operate a telephone any more? Look at all the people on the street talking on their mobile phones, holding them at right angles to their heads and usually the wrong way round! And if you haven't read Vernor Vinge's Zones of Thought series you should hang your head in shame!
