@alex @datarama @emaytch I don't have a lot of answers buuuut

Maybe this little bit will help?

Programmers are Systems Thinkers. We understand and design and redesign systems.

That's not a code specific skill. It's in everything that's actually still working okay. (A lot of things are breaking down, we just don't acknowledge them)

We can design good systems, and while it's hard to do that and pay rent, that's a skill that will become critical as more and more things collapse.
