I would like live in this world. We are trying to hire, and it’s basically as hard as ever. Senior developers are super hard to get, or even to talk to. Even if you pay above average rates.
There’s plenty of “LinkedIn senior” developers, tho. But after 3 years of C they can’t explain a static variable or can’t define a promise claiming to be js experts.
- Comment on GenAI more buzz than biz as tech barely dents jobs 1 week ago:
For one thing, generative networks are incapable of reciting facts reliably
Neither are humans, for what it’s worth…

It says right there that the confidence is way below 50%.

- Comment on Google lays off hundreds of 'Core' employees, moves some positions to India and Mexico 1 month ago:
I hear you (well, read you), I just disagree.
- Comment on Google lays off hundreds of 'Core' employees, moves some positions to India and Mexico 1 month ago:
That’s the same thing, I explicitly compared it to other people. It’s relative.

I know how they feel because I work with them daily. They feel blessed because they earn sometimes 10 times more than their parents for work much less hard, in particular those coming from farming families. They are not earning a “living wage”, they are earning a “live almost in luxury” wage, 20 to 30 lakh a year, which is still 10 times less than silicon valley. They work in a nice office with Air Conditioning, or directly from home if they want.
That being said, software engineers EVERYWHERE are earning “a living wage” at least. We are way overpaid, in fact, compared to social workers or teachers. A company with hundreds of thousands of employees relocating some positions to other countries is just mundane.
- Comment on Google lays off hundreds of 'Core' employees, moves some positions to India and Mexico 1 month ago:
Yes, Google is to blame for low salaries in India.
- Comment on Google lays off hundreds of 'Core' employees, moves some positions to India and Mexico 1 month ago:
I’m sure the software engineers in India and Mexico see it differently.
