In the late 90s, used car salesmen were out selling tech and along with them
came the other snakeoil salesmen. I worked for a company who hired a guy
to teach a Java course inhouse and when I looked up the guy, he was a
former minister. Every "new thing" pulls in these easy-money hacks who
make the easy money by speaking loudly about that everyone else knows
is the current "thing".  It happens and will happen again and we move on.
