GE just announced a 25% reduction. Lyft has already laid off something like 20%, etc. Everybody is getting laid off en masse because we are entering a depression if not a great depression. Computer touchers didn't get hit immediately like the service sector did because they are working already booked and paid for projects. By this fall there are gonna be millions of unemployed engineers and IT workers.

We can't be too far away from a governor telling their supreme court to gently caress off. Judicial review is such a farce.

Schnorkles posted:there are institutional white collar positions that have specific knowledge bases that are impossible to cut, regardless of whether that person fucks off all day every day beyond the one or two times a month they're required. Paying them is significantly cheaper than solving the problem. People like that are safer than a random code monkey but that doesn't help if the head of IT gets told 'cut 25%, have a list ready on monday'.

My opinions are wrapped in the professional world I live in, but people who have the keys to the algorithms will get fired when the company shuts down and not a moment before.

There haven't been computer engineers since the people who programmed their systems also had to build them by hand, transistor by transistor

At best those are software developers, but most are simply code monkeys. no real development ability because they've never understood the details of code embryogenesis.

But Rocks Hurt Head posted:Lmao massholes My statistical analysis of this is that volume actually has no effect on MA drivers and the same 27 dipshit drivers who were fated to die still just happened to be on the roadways. Really, if you think about it, I'm sure there is always a minority of driving fatalities that are really just unavoidable / freak accidents but the majority are probably the same assholes who you see on the freeway and think to yourself "How did they just avoid crashing there?" Well, if they keep doing the same dumb poo poo or they are the same incapacitated elderly/chemically impaired drivers doing the same thing they always do then, Final-Destination-like, they will meet their fate eventually.
