The complexity of software has gone way up. Nowadays, your run-of-the-mill internal corporate web app with maximum of 2 concurrent users (on a good day) may be written in Angular or React, deployed on Kubernetes, built with Bazel and have backend done in haskelesque Scala (this describes my current job). All these technologies are very complex and require a lot of time to learn them well. Unfortunately, we cannot just hire any programmer and expect him to perform well on our team - the required catch up could easily take a year or more. Hence, we're looking for hyperspecialists who can "hit the ground running", and there's few of them.
