    I’m not saying computers aren’t specialised at some point. My point is where I live in can make over 200k a year with 2 weeks off every 3 weeks. I don’t have that sort of opportunities in other industries where I am

      Yeah. I’m just joking about your choice of words.

      Like with any specialization, I’m glad you’re doing yours so I don’t have to learn it or learn to live without it.

      On the computer bullshit side, shareholders and CEOs are betting hard on AI, right now, and we’re - unbelievabably - headed toward an even greater shortage of talent.

      Unfathomably, I believe folks are going to look back with nostalgia on today’s pathetic computer science talent pool.

      (No offense to my peers, but there clearly aren’t enough of us who actually know what we’re doing.)
