Well it's not "wrong" in the sense of being factually incorrect but wrong in the sense of being just pathetic for a professional to be thinking such thoughts. Honestly, if you see a younger generation of students taking interest in your field, and instead of encouraging and teaching them, all you see is a threat to your livelihood... well... the profession will probably benefit if you found yourself something else, less competitive, to do.



>Honestly, if you see a younger generation of students

...then you were looking at something else. That was a group of billionaires advertising their naked greed and self interest.

When normal school-kids take an interest in computer science it doesn't appear in Forbes magazine.

>the profession will probably benefit if you found yourself something else to do.

Now that's pathetic.
