I notice that there is a huge difference in the attitudes of people who learned programming in childhood, compared to people who learned in adulthood. As someone in the former group, I find myself agreeing strongly with your assessment.

There is a lack of humility that is far too common, that manifests as a toxic attitude and bad spending habits. I see a similar issue with people in finance, and once the illusion fades such people are prone to suicide, as was the case in 2008.
