>>15242235Have a look at the depressoin of 29. The big cities saw misery but for many things went on as before. I think coding will start to fall more in line with other skilled trades, I think 6-figure entry level will probably remain as low 6-figures means less and other trades will be boosted. Depressions hit unskilled workers the hardest, and never before have we seen the will to utilise their deaths to forward an agenda like we see now. It is good they die, it's not just an unpleasant consequence of mismanagement of abundant resources. Their deaths can be used to further entrench systemic controls which promise fewer deaths in the future. We're living amid the residue of the 80's to 2020 Hero's Journey. Now we're getting the nightmare version of the equity comic where the two taller dudes are dismembered to be in line with the short stack. Opportunities will exist to game the zeitgeist, but you're going to do some inhumane shit to get there, at which point you join the circle of greater complicity. But anyway, coding is a skill, and it is always better to have skills than to not. Maybe you won't be coding in Seattle, but you could find yourself in coding in Gaborone or Chiang Mai and discovering life is iffy but tolerable while great misery is met with drone strikes elsewhere.
