was coding just a scam used to divert attention from the continued deindustrialization of the west?  it takes ~1000 job applications to land a job. you need to pass > 5 job interviews over a period of weeks to land a job. each job interview involves technical math problems you need to ace and take home tests that involve building working software applications (sometimes companies use these tests to farm out the work to applicants - ie build a food delivery app for us that does x). the coders put up with weeks of interviews, tests, assessments, and free work for a regular office job. the pay is comparable to most office jobs but you're just scene as an autist jira ticket grunt with little potential to move up the ladder. in most tech companies the people moving up the ladder are in sales or product/project management.  even if you land a job you're going to report to eight different bosses (most of them with little to no technical skills). that means that when you make a mistake, you have eight different people coming by to tell you about it. that's your only real motivation is not to be hassled, that and the fear of losing your job.  this guy learned to code at uwaterloo, the top leaf engineering school.   _hf4jbe0  why did people fall for the learn to code meme? coding is worse than any other engineering field, actuarial field, healthcare, most office jobs. was coding just a scam used to divert attention from the continued deindustrialization of the west?   wkpl5g70
