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.

Don't think I agree with this. Your suggestion doesn't raise the bar it creates a massive labor shortage and hurt the speed at which inexperienced devs can level up

As someone who went to school for EE, I do think there needs to be some sort of general certification for software engineers. 

I’ve seen bootcamp grads list themselves on LinkedIn as senior fullstack engineers after working for a year. I mean, it’s like the Wild West out here in terms of titles and skill levels.
