I've made similar comments on HN in the past but much of this griping seems to boil down to "I was interested in [thing] way before all these johnny-come-latelys just bum-rushed it for a paycheck!" It's an irritatingly hipster thing to do -- I did X before X was cool, but now X is sooooo over.
I also wish people who complain in these comments would name the schools when they complain. Who are you worried about offending? Will you help everyone else by identifying degree-mill schools that turn out low-quality people? I hate that great programs like Hack Reactor or MakerSquare -- which never have people on the job market for more than a couple weeks and continue to have ridiculous industry demand -- get lumped in with fly-by-night HTML/CSS bootcamps in third-tier tech markets like Atlanta.
