Tech Out

When will this market improve? Is my career already over?

Over? Probably not. Significantly curtailed.

If you don’t have at least 10-12 years of experience, tech is not a good career now. Jobs are being shipped to India/LATAM left and right and taken over by AI. And no, no one who “matters” cares that the jobs aren’t done as well, or that Americans will suffer because of it.

Tech is being hollowed out, like other fields before it.

Ferris of Them All

Guardian writers on their ultimate feelgood movies: โ€˜For when humanity lets me down.โ€™

I don’t watch movies this way so I don’t really have a “feelgood” movie as such, but if I had to choose one it’d be Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.

It’s just such a fun movie with a perfect tone that blends so much about humanity together incredibly well. The film feels like a pastiche because it is, and works all the better for it.

The latest rejection: A rogue AI was setting up interviews at Pizza Hut even though they weren’t hiring and they can’t stop it.
