    Yeah no shit. This was the plan all along. Big tech wanted to flood the market with too much talent so they could lower pay for engineers. This was always the plan.

    They never gave two shits about women in coding, or inner city coding caml’s. They wanted mass cheap labor.

    The cherry on top is right as that labor was coming out they got a double whammy of AI too.

      You give them too much credit, they’re idiots with no forethought and they’ve proven it countless times.

      AI got conveniently into the mixed of hiring, by screening resumes too. for a while there were so many “coding bootcamps” you can sign up in person, im guessing they all went extinct when the pandemic/AI craze hit.
