Everybody is going to be a developer at some level, maybe going forward.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Let me push back on that a bit, though, because I think that for us as developers, one of the things that we've always had over other people is that we have the knowledge and the skills that they don't have, and therefore we're worth a lot of money.
It's a lucrative field.
And we don't want to give that up.
We don't want to give that up if we're just being honest.
And I don't blame people for not wanting to give that up.
It doesn't make you a bad person.
But I think we're still trying to gatekeep some concepts.
We don't want these things to be available to everyone because then if they do, then we're in an existential crisis.
The Creed song?
The reason why we recoil at this is because to us, to those of us that have been writing code for decades, it's a craft.
It is a craft.
You lamented about this in your post.
I did.
When we had this big influx of people, and even my kids when they were in high school, they're in college now, but it was this big push that everybody should learn to code.
And literally everybody was in these coding classes because they wanted to make a ton of money.
That's not a bad reason to want to learn to code, but they had zero interest in the craft.
And that's why so few of them just made it out the end of the pipeline is because it's hard.
