That's been a thing for 30 years. Entrepreneurship is HARD, and tech salaries are fat right now. I think we'll see a lot more software entrepreneurship when there's another recession.
Makes you wonder what the actual state of the industry is right now with thousands of layoffs, but then comments like this one. Probably it's a bifurcation and an uneven distribution of reality.
There were layoffs in the big tech companies, but the sector itself is strong. Still very low unemployment. They over-hired. It happens. It's been a relative minor correction.
