He goes one step further and names the truly inclusive and affordable ecosystem: Apple :)
Look at the video games industry. People travel from all over the world to study in *Dundee* of all places, which for the Americans here is about the side of Bridgeport, Connecticut, simply because the universities there offer the best courses possible about developing and marketing video games.
Why?
Because in the 1980s, when Dundee was the heroin death and teenage pregnancy capital of Europe and unemployment was at something like 45%, one of the employers that *was* there was Timex, where they made the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, and so everyone had a ZX Spectrum because everyone's dad "knew a man down the pub who could get them". Everyone owned one, so everyone who had a modicum of talent could write games for them, and if your games were any good then within a day or two everyone in your high school had a copy of it.
Loads of folk in the tech industry who grew up in Scotland in the 1980s owe their livelihood to some guy in the Planet Bar in Lochee who could get knocked Spectrums for 100 quid...
The sad part is, it terms of learning skills, this is literally the most equality laden industry.
You can used a decade old computer, a used raspberry pi, an old discarded laptop and learn, code, read, play. There's no wall, no secret knowledge, and OSS software has code, and man pages, and information everywhere.
There are endless websites and communities, forums, mailing lists, and no one cares who 'webname45' is, or what their skin colour is, or orientation.
This field is about intellect, not about going to a entitled school, or even school at all! You can be a high school drop out, and easily succeed here! So many people are self taught, and it has nothing to do with privilege, or cost, or access, none... none of that is a barrier to learn in this field.
Complaining about "this is complex" is asinine, and conflates "learning stuff" with privilege.
"Learning stuff" is not exclusionary, when there is no bar, no restrictions on doing so. When anyone can do so.
People growing up in third world nations, malnourished, hungry, poor or no schooling, with english as a second language, easily pick this stuff up.
Because all it takes is intellect, raw intellect. Not learning, not background, no help needed, no money needed, but just intellect and reading.
And if you're going to call intellect or "knowing stuff you can understand for free" barriers, it's you that's the problem.
