I think the 'terrible schema' thing is a secondary issue. The important take away for me was this:
> Considering that we as an industry tend to chase off anyone who makes it to the age of 35, is it any surprise that we have a giant flock of people roaming around trying anything that'll work?
- alisonkisk 5y agoThat canard isn't true.
- mixmastamyk 5y agoUnfortunately it is the penultimate sentence in a sizable post.
- ummonk 5y agoMaybe I’ll change my mind in 5 years, but I have a hard time believing engineers over the age of 35 get chased off. What actually seems to be the case is that the field skews young because it’s rapidly growing, and older engineers choose to retire early because they can afford to. Which results in the same problems but the root cause is different.
