Ask HN: Is Programming Dead?
4 points by w4ffl35 8 hours ago | 24 comments
On X people claim 100s of thousands of tech layoffs, ghost jobs, a dead industry. I don't see this anywhere else. Hackernews seems alive, wellfound seems alive (though impossible to get an interview) recruiters seem alive, though seemingly have no jobs. What is going on? What is reality? I am asking this on X and dev.to as well. Are we being silently replaced?
Edit:
I see posts like this often on X: https://x.com/Scobleizer/status/1836662119770849535
