Low-Code and the Democratization of Programming

Many engage in ethically questionable practices around payment (boot camps aren't cheap) and job placement. Picking a good boot camp may be as difficult as choosing an undergraduate college. To some extent, the weaknesses of boot camps and traditional colleges can be helped through apprenticeships and internships. However, even that requires care: many companies use the language of the "agile" and CI/CD, but have only renamed their old, ineffective processes. How can interns be placed in positions where they can learn modern programming practices, when the companies in which they're placed don't understand those practices? That's a critical problem, because we expect that trained programmers will, in effect, be responsible for bringing these practices to the low-code programmers.
