That's exactly my question.
If there are fewer engineers, then there will be fewer dev tool companies, and fewer managers, etc. meaning fewer Slack, Gmail, MSFT, Zoom subscriptions, etc.
Companies are showing good profits, but if every company downsizes, then every company loses... right?

- SuboptimalEng 9mo agoAnd what happens, when enough percent of the population has nothing to lose?
- SonOfKyuss 9mo agoI’m guessing something like Hunger Games with robot enforcers to keep the peasants in line
