The campaign to train more programmers is an old one. Even as far back as the 1970s IBM was howling about a "software crisis" of not having enough developers. The reality is that there is plenty of talent available, but they just don't like the prices it's available at. It's just supply and demand.


This is the part that resonated with me the most. There is a theory that states that the initiatives to push more people into programmers is from companies that want there to be more supply so they can pay them less.
