I’m guessing it’s because of the phrase “boomer nerds”. But, the generational aspect really is relevant. I think probably a lot more nerds in later generations

I’m guessing it’s because of the phrase “boomer nerds”.
But, the generational aspect really is relevant. I think probably a lot more nerds in later generations who were interested in aerospace engineering got sucked into software for a variety of reasons. During the boomer specialization period aerospace was more appealing as a career.
