  >What does the plight of adjunct professors have to do with the job market for software professionals? I see tens of thousands of (often desperate) people trying to get in to the profession because that's what it's like on the outside. So far demand has outstripped supply, but I can see demand collapsing if/when VC dries up and demand remaining the same while people continue to flood in to the profession. That is, over time, I expect the job market for software professionals to end up more like the job market for adjunct professors than vice versa. >First a non sequitur and now a strawman? I don't think Zuckeberg lets me use facebook out of the goodness of his heart either... Right. So you think Facebook is run for advertising dollars and his other "charitable" ventures (e.g. to reform immigration) are run as an attempt to undermine developer wages?
