Yes, I was told in 2001 that I was never going to make a dime programming due to a combination of the dotcom crash and all the huge tech companies focusing on outsourcing.

I'm not sure how bringing up outsourcing helps what you're saying, because tech salaries went ballistic shortly after outsourcing became popular.

My point is people keep saying the same thing throughout different eras and the truth is the quality of code has always been low. If anything, ai is going to greatly improve it.

So there is a clear pattern but "this time is different"?

Funny how that was also said at those times.
