The teachers who teach 30 kids / year x 20 year avg career = 600 kids, on average 10% go on to become coders, so now that one teacher is responsible for generating 60 coders each of whose code goes on to "run thousands of times a second or 24/7 even when they're sleeping." They are more levered in impact than most coders will ever be and yet remain under compensated. It is a sad state of affairs.
