Me: This is one of the things I’m most concerned about for having kids. If the price of college keeps ballooning stupidly, what will happen to my kids financially?
@endecision: They will be really smart and get scholarships?
Me: (I guess they’ll have to have “non-traditional” resumes, like mine :p)
@endecision: or go to App Academy
@endecision: or found a start-up or something
Me: Hopefully programming will still be a wide open free for all then, like it is now.
Me: But I expect the government to start regulating and licensing it, like it does with every other good profession, because regulatory capture is pure fucking evil.
Me: The people who won’t let you braid hair or unclog a toilet unless you bend over for the gatekeepers won’t keep letting people get rich without ruining themselves for very long.
@endecision: Yeah
Me: “You wouldn’t want a HACKER working for your bank, would you? Look at this poor grandma who had all her pension money stolen by an ebul hacker! If you want to keep hackers out of programming jobs, vote for prop 69 to tell all the self-taught programmers to go fuck themselves. They’re entitled Silicon Valley twats, anyway.”
stop you’re giving me nightmares
although at that point I guess we might as well just whip out the drone armies and take out the normies’ governments for good
if any normies are listening (I don’t think so but just in case) please do not force self-taught programmers to start a civil war
you would lose it and people would suffer and that would be sad
