I just don't get that memories of bubbles are so short. This everyone-learn-to-code is just like 1997 or so, a few years before the big IT death.

That doesn't by itself mean that the fact that everybody's learning to code will bring to some catastrophe.

I compare with the heuristic, that when even mainstream newspapers start writing about investments in the stock market, it is time to leave. Just like 1999.

Computer programming is, in my experience, a cyclical job market. And not always in phase with the general economy.
