We have the worst job environment for tech in over two decades and that’s with the “AI” bubble in full force. If that bubble pops hard before the job market recovers, the repercussions to the tech industry will likely eclipse the dot-com crash.
Very based Jones Manoel!
Happy birthday!
I had a few acquaintances who were Free Masons. It's actually not a very uncommon thing, they are basically everywhere. IMHO, it's just an old men book club.
Do you have kids? Does your schedule accomodate parenting and chore duties? I feel that after my kid was born, I lost the possibility of having a good night of sleep. And my kid is already older, so I don't have the issue of waking up many times during the night anymore. Even so, just surviving has been difficult.
And Voldemort was a CIA asset or operative.
I don't mean this layoff but all that are happening in the last months.
It's not dumb. They understand what they are doing. They think firing multiple people at once can flood the market with developers, and the situation could be used to hire new people with a lower compensation.
Don't think the rationale behind this is work quality or developer productivity. This is a power move. For Google and many big tech companies devs are replaceable and are just cogs in the machine. The problem is that they became too costly with the advent of COVID.
People are talking about Java, but the majority of programming languages are memory safe nowadays. Go satisfies this requirement, for example.
Actually, in order to test your assumption, you'd need to quantitatively measure skill, which per se is something already problematic, but you'd also need to run a statistical test to confirm the distribution is a normal/Gaussian distribution. People always forget the latter and often produce incorrect statistical inferences.
Yeah it's like there are plenty of ethical jobs in capitalism.
This is why we need to think on how to turn the AI usage to the workers. Thinking on creating AI models that are open source and do not depend on big companies. I'm thinking on exploring grid computing and p2p technologies, so we could explore computing power in a distributed way.
