   Have any of these articles actually addressed HOW software developers are supposed to retrain for good jobs? Personally I have neither the money nor the years to go back to college to get a livable job.

      The internet has made it easier than ever to learn new skills. You don't need college unless you're targeting a career that requires, or expects, a degree.

         "unless you're targeting a career that requires, or expects, a degree."

         Unfortunately most well paying jobs do.

            Maybe there will be an inversion. Lots of white collar office jobs can be partially automated, or have their efficiency greatly increased by AI. But we still don't seem to be near widely deployed robots that finish drywall

               Do you like working with dry walls? I don't. I can do it, but I ain't born for handywork.
