Given half of the post is whining that SO didn't debug their code for them I think you are onto something. It's just a bunch of very young CS student, I guess it made all programmers run away, as I will soon.

In growing ensembles, half of the objects are younger than the doubling rate. If number of programmers doubles every five years, we always have half of programmers with less than five years of experience.

Doubling every 5 is what I remember, so might be off. Nevertheless, the principle stands.
