"Java (understanding the JVM and OOP concepts)"
I am pretty sure that you can programm java without knowing details about the JVM and I would think, that most java programmers do exactly this. I think only in high performance scenarios knowing more is beneficial?
But I have not touched java in a long time .. as I have indeed choosen the web as plattform.
But I don't feel threatened by the high school kids coming from boot camps.
Edit:
I know what a pointer is, so I can work closely with wasm libaries.
I know algorithms and how to structure data and why I am structuring data this way in this case, so I can adopt in another case.
I know how to achieve performant simple code.
I know how to debug layers of code with sideeffects over sideeffects. Raceconditions, memory leaks, etc. (All a thing in js, too). Using and understanding the profiler etc.
Someone coming from a coding bootcamp, does not know this. He or she might learn it after years of practice, which is allright by me - but they are no direct threat to me, despite that I don't even really know react for example.
