slop but also lowers barrier to entry for others to start building!

This will be a controversial opinion but I honestly believe the barrier is too low. We don’t give doctors a 6 month bootcamp and say “hey, go operate on some people!”

Yet you can get hired writing code that manages millions of dollars quite easily.

This isn’t a call for increased credentialism (I’m a college dropout and very proud of it). It’s a call for higher standards for everyone. If you want to write code that’s awesome, but it shouldn’t be easy.

“You can get hired writing code that manages millions of dollars quite easily.” I’ve found the exact opposite to be true.  (Barring the golden era for SWE hiring in ‘21, that is.)

As for passing multiple rounds of technical screens, I don’t think 99% of bootcamp grads could do it.
