and the peer group was just decimated, right? May be easy to keep in touch with your 4-5 best friends over zoom, but good luck bumping elbows with the person that will help you in a decade.

That said. I can more easily picture a rag-tag group of prodigy coders banding together to develop games and underground software. Wearing the “Harvard dropout” badge will be a lot more common.
