What I'm curious is why isn't more people going all-in on programming? What are the down sides (because I really cannot think of any), and what could possibly deter anyone from making the switch?
there is a difference between a programmer and software engineer. it is the latter that is highly sort after and well paid. being a programmer is no big deal.
