My two main concerns are: 1) Combating ageism in the programming job market. The best solution seems to be continuing to grow and making sure the seniority of your skills matches the seniority of your age. I'm only 27, but in my segment of the programming world I feel like I'm mid-career already. 2) An influx of people who can just "write code" for cheap, devaluing the basic ability to make computers do things. Again, I want to "raise myself above the tide" by boosting my resume. It is entirely possible that the best way for me to make this progression is just to double-down on self education and industry experience, I'm just trying to cast out a survey to answer the question of which signifiers employers look for.
