  > Reminds me of the learn to code movement in 2017 Well, this is not about coding. Because I am a software engineer and also because I think showing coding as a profession will be easier on screen, I chose tech company as the way to convey the message. The aim here is to cover wide range of social issues, sweet bitter experiences of people who are on the fringes of the tech revolution.
