Yeah, getting a foot in the door is probably hard. (Not impossible, just hard) I just mean: there actually are lots of pipelines like paid internships. That doesn't mean people aren't lost. I've experienced companies blinding their hiring pipeline to things like name, gender, age, university, etc. because biases causes you to loose out on valuable talent. Yes, I'm sure it still hard, and many companies don't try to avoid biases. But software is a lot less conservative than other industries :)
