Why does IT not count? IT, and especially now IT Outsourcing is a seriously large sector of the 'tech industry' and can encompass a great deal of challenging things.
But whatever. I'm DevOps for a company that makes a competing product to VMWare ESXi/NSX and also has a storage product. We use open technologies with some private proprietary enhancements.

IT is super poorly defined, I imagine OP is referring to peeps that do callcenter or setup some goddamn mailserver for customers all day. That shit is rote and boring and if that's your job find some better work. But there's also IT peeps designing network infrastructure for global bank systems and those guys are fucking amazing.
So to answer OP's question: 45 of us. That's how many hold jobs in the tech industry.

Senior systems engineer at one of those big mega software companies. I mostly do devops type of stuff, look after a few thousand Linux systems. I work in internal IT though so I guess that doesn't count according to op.

Does it worth it?
I tried casually watching the lectures but I drop in the middle of the set cause it wasn't helpful outside being part of the meme.
Also, I'd do the homework but where are the answer so I can check my work and see if I have been outsmarted and just missed the whole point or not.
How can you ask a question like that and then follow it up with "I.T. does not count"?
Thats like asking how many people work in a restaurant, foodservice workers don't count.
