Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I guess this could just as easily be posted in an anti-work community

90% of the people who were laid off in December had a new job by February. That timeframe has been consistent across the board.

There is still a huge talent gap and there are still a huge amount of high paying jobs available for folks in software. You may have more trouble getting into the largest orgs, but aim a bit smaller and you can find work pretty quickly.

Exactly. I'm so tried of random folks speculating on how much easier it's going to be to attract developers. Nothing actually changed folks.

A slightly smaller massive shortage is still just a massive shortage.
