The article is addressing a shortage of workers for STEM jobs. Quote from the article:
"If you're a high math student in America, from a purely economic point of view, it's crazy to go into STEM." The best of these students flock to Wall Street and corporate law firms and the rest end up employed in non-STEM jobs which often pay less and underutilize their skills.
If SV companies could draw star programmers away from Goldman, we'd then be talking about a finance shortage, no?
