You can blame that on the colleges/universities/tech schools. It seems like all of the above are trying to teach the latest and greatest technologies without teaching the fundamental building blocks. And I think this shows in many recent graduates (not all of them though).
Not too many years ago, I taught a Data Structures class at a local college. The prerequisite was Programming I and Programming II. To a person...each student informed me that they did not know how to write a program from scratch. Their instructor had always provided them a partial program and they just filled in the blanks. This floored me and
I knew it was time to get out of the teaching business (no offense Daniel).
Just my 2 cents...
