Another in the long line of clickbaits. While it starts out by making a case for lack of non-CS jobs, it slowly devolves into an ad for "Insight Data Science Fellows Program".
Then to avoid being marked as native advertising, it adds info about data sciences division at University of California, Berkeley. The article then ends abruptly without having a satisfying conclusion.
Is it just me or we can't seem to get lot of infomration from the media without some kind of covert advertisement in between?
- seibelj 9y agohttp://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html http://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html Almost all news is paid for outside of current events and politics (although those sections are biased by the editorial room). Pay enough money and you’ll get into the NYT, it just takes the right PR agency to pitch the story correctly.

- patmcguire 9y agoI don't think it's necessarily advertising. There's a huge societal narrative that education is "the answer." (No specific question given). The statistics imply that maybe it's not, maybe it isn't a skills gap, maybe this is just how things are now. That's too terrifying, because then there's no solution, so they have to restore the natural order by finding some other way education solves the problem.
