This doesn't seem to actually be about anything or say anything interesting, useful, or surprising.
Some israeli tech workers are being mobilized because they are military reservists. It doesn't have anything to do with their being tech workers per se. And other than one grustlecore mention of taking conference calls between fights (??) it could be about reservists of any background.
Frankly it is pretty thin "our boys in the trenches"-style propaganda.
