Timeline of a nocode solution:
>Sales person explains how for only 100k-10M/yr, you can eliminate all those expensive programmers and replace them with 50k/yr people who have no experience
>For 100k/yr, they will send their own expert to build the infrastructure
>Sucker Company proceeds to buy powerautomate/powerBI/etc...
>The sucker company hires people at 50k/yr, the software can't do everything they want, its slow to develop, a few programmers come over to help
>this continues for a few years, 100k programmers are using these no code solutions, doing things that take 60 seconds in python, in 4 hours. Sometimes there is no possible way, so they write some python to supplement it, rigging up a horror that works for now
>No Code Company basically discontinues service due to unpopularity
>Sucker Company hires legacy no-code enterprise devs at 100k/yr
>Sucker Company hires legacy no-code enterprise devs at 150k/yr
>Sucker Company hires legacy no-code enterprise devs at 200k/yr
>Sucker Company hires legacy no-code enterprise devs at 300k/yr
