> cs is done for real. it's not done, it just won't be welcoming to new grads for probably another decade. i worked at fagman before and through the wu flu. once the fed lit the match and floored the gas in march 2020, shit was like christmas. every fucking week, requests for help on interview loops, meeting some gaggle of new retard hires, some of whom we took on in part for being brown or having a vag weighted slightly higher than zero compared to their problem solving ability. entire orgs sprung into existence within months, with goals to solve problems that probably didn't matter, and certainly didn't matter compared to the rate of eventual return those teams would create for the bottom line. but hey, it was great for promos - we basically watered down an entire senior level by osmosis given how many mid-tier level were getting the invite up. fast forward to 2023, the coke binge faded, the nosebleeds and headaches started, and oh shit, i guess the free money wasn't forever and, fuck, now we have an ocean of retards up and down the org chart doing things that provide zero value at all to shareholders or users. who could have predicted that? and so they're going to spend probably 6 more years just slow-purging the waste they took on during covid. it's not that ai is taking over or that tech is fundamentally flawed. it's that they had a gordon gecko weekend that lasted 2 years.
