This view is just absurd.

Anything related to the web was not even consider "coding". HTML monkeys got paid nothing. The idea a HTML monkey was doing engineering was a laughable idea. There were no python jobs when python was brand new.

Sure, a good C or Perl programmer had no trouble getting a job in 1994. There were so many less jobs though overall.

Then in 2000 the entire industry goes on life support for 2-3 years.

The good times are now.
