Problem is, people are choosing careers based on how much it will pay them, instead of things they want to do/ are passionate about. Its rare nowadays to have candidates who also have hobby work/ side projects related to the work. At least by my reckoning.

I get that they can download widgets to accelerate the results, but they need to learn how the things work. I just code what i need by hand instead. Net result of their approach is quick up front results, but heaven forbid maintenance or customization.
