How did getting a CS / SWE degree go from a guaranteed ticket to a 6 figure job to a guaranteed ticket to unemployment so quickly? Imagine telling someone from 2010 that your field would be so fucked that you need to apply to hundreds of places for the slim chance of being hired
>>109598712i did get out of college in 2010 and went into software engineering. i now have more than enough money to retire. so, i think someone from 2010 would be fine with knowing they only have 16 years to save for retirement lol
>>109598712coovitecon growth stopped, even recessedbut cs grads kept being churned outnow you play the game on extrahard
>>109598712@grok make that image real life
yet here I am an EE tradesman who told /g/ not to fall for the sit on ass meme degrees, whos laughing now faggots
Feels like hiring is picking up since 2023 tho. Spread more doomer shit because the FAANG or bust retards made tech insufferable.
>>109598712>CS/SWE degree post 2017Buddy, dunno how to tell ya, there are about 100million other "software enginners" in the world that can do as good as you from their homes in china, india or nicaragua. Didn't you think about the certainty of the job beforehand?Programming is on par with learning Russian or French, everyone can do that to some level, and now we have Google Translate for it so most just halfass it.The only jobs that are certain to remain in the near future are physical jobs like being a lumberjack or game warden.
>>109599033>muh physical jobsthat shit could have been automated 20 years agophysical jobs are the most uncertain of them allno, the solution is to stop being a wagietheres no place to hide, nigga
>>109599085>game wardens can be automatedAre you dumb?Humans respond to other humans, not abstract drones, which would most probably get shot down "by accident".>automate lumberjacksTry automating a way to get a 6x6 truck stuck in 3ft of mud to move with minimal equiment. Betcha cain't.You'd need a MAN to MANUALLY drag the towing cable to use the tow winch on that 6x6.The only physical jobs you can automate are inner city jobs and transport, everything else requires human supervision to operate, that is if they can even become autonomous in any way, shape or form.

>>109599310yeah, welli got news for you< this is the actual level of tech in roboticsrts style turrets in 2003none of what you described is hard in any wayespecially if you accept hiring a couple nerds to supervise the whole operation
>>109599331btwthis is what makes me think that not only tech jobs are adult daycare to stifle competition*everything* fucking is.jobs is how they keep society obedient

Did you forget that their population is 2 fucking billion?>50 million Indian Hindus have already migrated out of India permanently (next biggest diaspora are Mexicans at a distant 10 million)https://www.statista.com/topics/13150/indian-diaspora/>250 MILLION - the number of Hindu male invaders the Indian government is trying to send out into the world permanently, mostly targeting the west and rich countries - by 2050https://x.com/amandalouise416/status/1929362235048231402
shit happens zoomie, geology was the hottest degree in the 1970s until oil crashed and everyone graduated into a nojobs market.
>>109598712programming has been my hobby for 10 yearsworking at mcdonalds 2 years post-gradfocusing on kernel/compiler dev was retarded tho, my autistic ass has no web skills (therefore no entry) and with no job experience having "wrote an os for custom programming language and emulated cpu architecture" on a resume means nothing in the age of aiall skills just generally feel less special now
>>109600290There are still people doing real work who would want that kind of skill set, but they're all in defense.
>>109598712>How did getting a CS / SWE degree go from a guaranteed ticket to a 6 figure job>guaranteedNever has faggot. Welcome to the real world. You been lied to along with all the people that gone for it. Too many of you went for it. Just like IT.
>>109599085>>109599331Factory automation is a wet dream for shareholders and upper management. Shit gets fucked up and it doesn't always get caught on the first fuck up. Nothing is 100%. That's why factories still have people "baby sit" machines that are automated. Fuckin robot isn't going to slap its own e-stop.
>>109598712Suits long since discovered that Indians were "qualified" and a fraction of the cost of their most expensive employees, be it onshore or offshore. This stewed quietly beneath the surface of all the FAANG companies still hiring top interns with six figures to handle the most difficult actual work. (Other graduates were absolutely not guaranteed anything unless they were DEI.) AI further appeared to negate the need to deal with any intelligent employees at all. Once ZIRP disappeared it all finally collapsed toward every company becoming a skeleton crew of minimally viable products to extract as much capital as possible.>>109599310That one truck replaced what used to be 50 men. Just because it still requires one operator and a few extra spot crew on-call for the region does not mean it's a stable career.
It's funny you sissy fucks have to get real jobs now.
>>109600486there was actual demand but it waas when you were in middle school 6 years agothe actual answer to op is h1b fraud40% of domestic software engineer jobs are held by immigrantsthey only hire their own and will do so even in the face of minor legal penalties.https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/fact-sheet/foreign-born-stem-workers-united-states/#:~:text=In%202019%2C%20there%20were%20647%2C000,and%20math%20category%20in%202019not to mention the amount of enrollments skyrocketed and the degree reqs were drastically lowered during covid. now they churn out half wits with degrees that are somehow even worse than indians.
>>109598712Jews and jeets have ransacked the industry, reducing it to a looting phase. It won’t recover; China will simply outcompete the US and become the new leader in tech. Twenty years, tops. Probably ten. US is going to be a complete basket case with 20M unemployed jeets.
>>109602128>jeetsJust send them to the factories to work in American industry for low wages, just like the Chinese did with the villagers, that's all.
