Nah. With all the “$15 an hour now” minimum wage increases I will be hiring people who can program PLCs for my burger making machines (small adaptations from my current products) and G-code to run my CNC machines. Coders are a dime a dozen now and there are 2 billion of them in China and India. Hard to find a PLC programmer.

There are only a finite number of people who are willing to code for a living. I’ve known a lot of people with IT degrees who “weren’t technical”.
Even in India, there are not that many people who can code. Even growing up speaking English, they have trouble converting specs to code
