Hipsters going to coding bootcamps believing they can become competent programmers in 4 months

>Hipsters going to coding bootcamps believing they can become competent programmers in 4 months.

Have fun being code monkeys.

sad thing is, they're still likely to be more successful than most people here, by virtue of not being autistic

You're just jealous because we're more better coders :). "Programmers" are just obsolete today, kys. We learn epic tools like yeoman, jhipster, bower and gulp and user epic coding languages like node. Reactive web coding is the future.

>more better
Fuck off retard

>web "developers" upset that hipsters figured out how easy their job is

How's the bait taste?

>2016
>not being a code artisan

It wasn't supposed to end like this.

OP, you didn't live through the late 90s in Silicon Valley. The bubble was huge. To the point where they just needed warm bodies and would throw them in front of a computer and call them a programmer. That's where we are right now. SF/SV is in a huge bubble and is literally handing out dev jobs to random people off the street who own Macbooks. SF/SV right now is right where it was in 99 before the dotcom bubble burst. It's gunna be rough.

but m-m-muh wordpress templates!

Nice bait, m8...

can you please explain what does "bubble burst" means?


sorry non-english dude here.

>dotcom bubble burst

Considering what Linkedin just sold for, we are near the cliff.

The estimated value of tech startups is over-inflated and soon they will fall more in line with reality, causing a decline in the market.

If you were older than 10 years old during the dot-com burst, you'd know that we aren't even close to those conditions.

The reason why the bubble burst back then was because all this investment capital was spent on all these new startups that had NO PLAN TO ACTUALLY EVER TURN A PROFIT.

Yeah, a lot of them had cool ideas for cool services/products, but very few had any idea how to monetize them. Some solutions just could NOT be monetized under those conditions, or possibly any conditions.

No one gives a shit about unskilled workers churning out subpar products. That's called all of China. We've been putting up with it for decades.

The only result is that eventually people figure out they either need to pay these retards less (which should have happened more than a decade ago), actually train people, or actually hire competent people; most likely some combination of the three.

thanks for the explanation friends

so mysogonistic, because they are girls they cant be good coders? this is why we need feminism in 2016.

Sounds like most of the startups nowdays.

Only in degenerated western society

Why is MKBHD learning to code?

This is pretty much what's happening now.
You're stupid if you think we're not experiencing a second bubble burst.

...

>finger touching the screen

>you will literally never be this progressive

lol

most people get CS degrees only to end up code monkeys

4 months in a bootcamp to end up writing shit python code sounds better than spending 4 years in school to end up writing shit java code.

Daily programming training for 4 months is going to make anybody a competent programmer.

the point of a burst is that it bursts

we're experiencing something of a deflation, not a burst

What are you talking about. These coding bootcamps make a profit from every student.

I don't see what these bootcamps really provide you with though, you could do the same thing for 4 months at home for free.

At home, you're self-directed. When you work, you don't know if what you're doing is right or wrong. You don't know what is the next step for you to take to get you to your concrete destination beyond a nebulous task of "read these three books to reach this level".

These coding bootcamps have schedules about your curriculum and goals so you know your pathway and how long it's going to be done. They have teachers to instruct you every step of the way so you know when you get things wrong. You have a group of peers who are on the same level as you are so you have someone to discuss your current activity.

It's not even about coding, it's about getting hired for a job where you do jack shit except pose for photographs for magazines, while holding a macbook pro. Then they will run back to their trust funds when their trivago-for-airbnb-knockoffs goes bankrupt.
