I started college in 2005, and believed at the time that most programming work was being outsourced to India. I blame Slashdot for putting that idea in my head -- that forum seemed to be full of out-of-work programmers and IT guys who spent all day complaining about how hard it is to make ends meet. Fortunately, I majored in CS anyway because I had been passionate about it all my life. I only discovered that I was wrong to worry when I graduated in 2009 and was flooded with job offers. I still wonder why those Slashdotters were having so much trouble finding work.
