19. I learned to write web code.
Tue Jul 14, 2020, 10:45 AM
Jul 2020

I quickly discovered that there is code that writes code. Billion dollar tech companies have something like 13 employees. There are robots that build robots. This problem that was happening in slow motion is now speeding up.

There is a dividing line between those who get seed money to get them started and those who don't. Student loans were a way to address the problem, but just like health care costs, when the government or other institutions pay for things the costs go up to the point where not only are the full retail sticker prices of college and health care unaffordable, the premiums and loan payments can't be met. The response to all of this is "you should have thought about that before you were born on the wrong side of the dividing line."
