@elizayer@mastodon.social @dxzdb@mastodon.social I don’t think AI is taking jobs the way some people expect but my poor nephew graduated UCSC in Computer Science and spent a YEAR searching for a job in tech. So many places just are not hiring juniors, in Eng, Product, or Design, creating a mega talent pipeline problem. Early career is when we learn HOW to think, not just to build and ship shit. Sigh.

@Jargoonco@mastodon.online @dxzdb@mastodon.social :-( :-( :-( So sorry for your nephew. That must especially suck after probably being told his whole life what a sure thing a CS degree was. Somehow it feels like a drawbridge is being pulled up... but maybe having these thinking skills will seem quaint to them in the future. Like COBOL to my generation. 🙃
