The author lists 3 reasons (2 are essentially the same argument) why ""learn to code" is looking like bad advice."...I disagree with all of them... > CODING CAN’T SAVE YOU The author essentially states that coding will increasingly be outsourced and so don't bother. But this logic assumes that the size of the market is static...in fact it is not. Literally every industry right now is already or on the verge of being dramatically changed by technology. Even traditional companies IKEA to McDonalds are turning themselves into tech companies, and all of these companies need coders. Regarding "learning code is hard"...yes...it is. But it is immensely rewarding and provides a very in demand skill set. > TRAINING OUR ROBO-REPLACEMENTS > HIGH-TECH UNEMPLOYMENT I'm not disputing that automation will trigger widespread job losses but an individual is still far better to be the robo training worker than the person being replaced by a robot. If learning to code is such bad advise what alternative does he propose for the individual? Deny the fact that high tech is disrupting traditional industries? My two cents.
