I think it's become clear the great age where being a software developer meant you could never be unemployed is done.

One of my favorite podcasts (Soft Skills Engineering) has been talking about it for months. My article about how to easily find a job as a dev, which got me literally hundreds of e-mails of thanks, no longer makes sense https://gcj.io/blog/how-to-get-a-better-dev-job/.

I myself have just been laid off, and since I was foreseeing the decline of the company, I have been firing CVs away for MONTHS and couldn't find any decent offer. Not even a half decent one. Hell, a friend who's worked at Twitter, among others, can't find a job.

Is this AI? Is it a temporary decline of the market? Caused by what?

Is there still any niche where we can be employed faster as we could just a year ago? Are we all going to die?
