You guys seem to be missing the real point I was trying to make here. We are in a Not Enough Programmers Boom and it will be followed by a deflations in about 4 or 5 years. I taught CS during the mid 1980's during one of these. Most of the people who are going to 'learn to code' don't really want to be programmers - they want a job. They aren't going to be competitive when the Bust happens, so they would be better off planning their careers for when that happens than living under the illusion that they are going to be Programmers. I didn't write this 'poor article' for you guys. I wrote it for the rest of the poor slumps who are being conned by the 'Learn to Code!!!!' hype. Lighten up.
