I can't do this anymore. Why are we still asking this question. Is Learning to Code Still Worth It in 2024? Why?

In this video, we dive into the debate surrounding the value of learning to code in 2024, cutting through the hype to offer a balanced perspective. At least try.

We acknowledge the dramatic narratives often found in content discussing the future of coding, recognize the influence of marketing in shaping these discussions, and emphasize the importance of discerning hype from reality.

If you are a elf taught developer or wondering if you should go to bootcamp or get a computer science degree this video is for you.

Here is the video that I reference from @InternetOfBugs about a good take youtube.com/watch?v=7-f7rPdj6tI&t=1s

Key Topics:
1. The Hype Cycle in Tech: Acknowledging how hype influences public perception and the narrative around learning to code.

2. Reality vs. Marketing: Understanding that statements about coding and its future often serve underlying agendas, such as promoting a product or service.

3. The Role of AI in Coding Jobs: Discussing the actual impact of AI on coding jobs and debunking the myth that AI will replace developers anytime soon.

4. Investing in Yourself and Your Future: Encouraging a broader perspective on career and financial planning, including continuous learning and strategic investment in companies at the forefront of technology.
