> I'm not sure that there was an inrush of programmers because "it could make a lot of money". Literally everyone in my college class in the 90s was there exactly for that reason; they almost all sucked at it, even after years of work. Then when I ran my first larger company end 90s to about ‘10 , almost everyone we interviewed went into development because of the money; most didn’t like it, would never do it as a hobby and they closed the door after 5 pm. All fine, but not sure how you sure how you can say there was no inrush of people digger for gold and not really wanting to do the work. There are many good people but the majority simply don’t care. I guess in some places you will find more of one kind than the other.
