Now you need to know html and 6-weeks worth of programming basics. The main reason experienced people compete so hard for jobs is that companies won't hire remotely and people don't want to move, and because founders and VCs don't pay good salaries. Still, finding a good job is fairly easy if you're talented.
- bonemachine 13y agoBut the point is that in '99 it was also fairly easy even if you were manifestly untalented.
- varelse 13y agoI would submit that most of the social media startups consist primarily of the manifestly untalented. The cream of that crop graduates to writing buggy and crashy IOS and Android apps. The very elite (ya know the ones that passed calculus and linear algebra) of that esteemed crowd sits through a few Coursera and/or Udacity courses and proclaim themselves data scientists. All of this has happened before and will happen again. PS Absolutely loving what this is doing to total compensation though.
