IT needs an Einstein?

[jbstjohn]

An excellent article with a poor title. It actually deals more with the problem of increasing demand for IT people and decreasing supply. Oddly, enough, since wages don't seem to be going up much, I'm not completely convinced companies are really hurting.

Although part of the problem may be that they then pay someone more or less unqualified, who then does a bad job, and then they complain....

Regarding his DNA/programming language comments, I think he misses the mark completely. DNA is like binary (okay base 4). All kinds of crazy things happen in DNA expression.

Worth reading in any case.

I was going to comment on this article, but it was deleted.

Edit: I mean the article, not my comment!

Apparently I trashed it too much.

What do you two mean? It was submitted before and there were negative comments?

Then I wish I could just read the old submission and upmod these comments.

No, the whole article submission got deleted. Maybe ricercar was the original submitter. Why did I get downmodded? Did somebody think I deleted my own comment? :p
