A new dev is usually hired based on a set of competences and skills, may them also be small at the beginning, and software dev is their future job. Here we are talking about making people whose it is not the main job to do software, which is something completely different, and, and that was my point, only possible because software is so easy to produce. And precisely that is how to generate, again IMHO backed up by now 20 years of experience, very quickly very bad software.
Our coding witch is very skillful and I do not doubt she has good teaching skills, but this is kind of an exceptional situation : I am facing every day, literally, people who are given tasks of coding (whatever it is, excel macros, vb code, website cms, ... ) and who are not qualified to do it. If what they would need to to do so was more than a computer and a bunch of software tools, like for instance a caterpillar or a $20k equipment, a professional would have been recruited so as to not waste money and they would not have ask to touch software.

Not sure about what you wrote, but I am not impressed anymore by the Internet, don't worry Big Grin | :-D Wink | ;)
