@liskin@genserver.social yes, I mean I've said it before, there are definitely jobs that can be eliminated but they're not the ones the C-suite want to get rid of. They want to get rid of the higher earning smarter people stuff because they resent paying it and those smart people actually identify that problems are not as simple as the suits think they are, which they've historically despised. Even single tech generation with anything EVEN RESEMBLING tech that allows people to get rid of coders companies have REJOICED in it and put out tonnes of press, hardly containing their glee. Then they end up realising it's bullshit. This time it's a bit different - if you're a stack overflow copy/paste moron, or a completely replaceable 'who cares about quality or learning anything' type, you're genuinely pretty replaceable. I also think middle management, the majority of which are useless (the exceptions though are hugely not) are at risk. And the C suite itself would be if not corrupt :)
