I couldn't help but notice that many young people don't want to spend months pulling their hair off to get a deeper understanding of what they do... they want to obtain value very quickly. Paul Graham once tweeted that he was explaining to his son that he can't be Einstein and Messi, and his son said so I will be Messi. But no Messi if there is no Stadium, Stream, Cameras, etc... The existence of a big number of people who can do complicated jobs is crucial for the modern world, and I think this whole thing will fall down if it continued with the current mode.
