I'm all for it. I'd quit my job tomorrow. Well, Monday. We're off tomorrow.
Regarding parent's and grandparents post, If there is too much supply for demand, the logical outcome is a fall in prices. This is called deflation.

I stopped using Media Player back when you had to sign your life away in a bunch of EULAs and dialog boxes when it started up and had to use WGA just to download the latest version (required for something or other I forget now). VLC & WinAmp all the way.
"The girl-power theme of the tutorial is a continuation of our efforts to expand diversity in computer science and broaden female participation in the field, starting with younger students."
It's interesting speculation based on the recent history of technological growth. Personally, I think it will be self-limiting somehow but the good professor seems to have completely missed the point.

Just what the world was waiting for.
