The bottom of that graph is 50, not 0 you retard. Yeah it isn't 2022 levels of hiring anymore but it's far from over. Of course if you're dumb enough to get filtered by a graph this misleading good fucking luck getting a job lmao

Pair it with the mass layoffs and the number of compsci grads per year doubling since 2011

Posting these misleading zoomed-in graphs should be considered "spreading misinformation" and bannable.
Please think of the safety of our Newfriends to form informed opinions.

It's all the elites fault that tech work is the only job that pays well, has good benefits and at the same time isn't too difficult to get into. To top it off, software development is the single only non-management job that allows you to immigrate through skilled labor, no other job at all gives you that whatsoever

Software is going through what non-software engineering went through after all manufacturing got moved to China and the goverbment stopped spending money on keeping infrastructure up to date.
Due to the globalization of the economy and information, way more qualified potential workers are being created than the number of workers any industry could ever need. The entire tech, car, manufacturing, etc industries used to be supplied with workers from just the USA, Japan and a couple EU countries. Now ot os the entire fucking world.
Every career is being enshittified into different flavors of wage slavery. Software just happened to last longer.

As someone who does hiring, from where I sit it does look very grim for job-seekers.
For every job posting, we get 20x the candidates that we did two years ago. Half of that increase are shitty LLM-generated applications, but hidden in the better half of the increase are really talented people willing to work for a lot less comp than we expect.
Software engineering is clearly transitioning to a lower tier salary band than the upper-middle range it used to be.
