3?! Are you serious? How can anyone make it through a CS program without being familiar with at least 10-15 levels? Modern processors have at least that many and that’s without even leaving the chip!
There’s too much to do for the bandwidth of the top talent. This has been true since at least the 80s. Most tech that has succeeded at scale has done so by figuring out how to leverage what *average* talent can do.

That’s true to an extent. We could also look at the shortage as a filtering mechanism: the things they find worth doing and subsequently follow through with are truly the things humanity needs to be doing. The rest of it is bullshit.

Coming from a country which pretty much invented the game of throwing large numbers of decidedly average people at programming, I’m much more sympathetic to, and optimistic about, the results. It’s not a filter. It’s a risk-managed allocation decision.
