1. High interests rate. 2. Too many bootcamps. We can close this topic.

computer job market is a huge misallocation of skills and resources, so no it's not that simple. Given how much tech debt/backlog there is, there should be enough work for everyone, just paid less. The fact that it isn't so just shows that there are bottlenecks elsewhere - HR, companies stuck in office only mode (so there's a high floor on salaries).

Currently all I see is a mix of very highly paid do it all types with rather lowly paid outsourced talent but no sensible middle and of course no way to realistically learn on the job - the bar to get in is very high.

Interest rates really aren't that high. Lowering them 3% just means you get a few more years before shit goes tits up.

Fundamentals are the problem, if there's no new avenues for economic growth, then there is no way to pay down the debt.

Doubt the bootcamps made a measurable difference in the tech hiring market.

Goodbye small blogs, forums, it was nice to read you.

They don't disappear just because Google no longer surfaces them. May I suggest marginalia search for your small web needs? https://marginalia-search.com/

I tried marginalia but the index is still small.

It still haven't index my blog but have indexed my root homepage, which has a direct link to the blog.

There are steps to submit it manually: https://github.com/MarginaliaSearch/submit-site-to-marginali...

Those died a long time ago though

Most of my online usage is browsing forums and reference materials. Hell, I'm responding to you on a forum.

I don't think they're dead at all.

I just wonder what the cost of the enshittification of the web to humanity is.

There was a time where I could type a loose query about anything I didn't know, and get its Wikipedia page, forums and blogs full of knowledgeable people, scientific articles and academia pages, where all knowledge was a few seconds of typing away.

Now... I don't even bother to Google things anymore. It's all SEO spam, AI slop, and ghostwritten articles whose content is secondary to the business they advertise.

If anything LLMs democratize it because I can search for exactly the blog I want using a semantic query.

I'm tired boss [meme]

when e2ee?

use anytype instead (i work at notion)

anytype has e2ee at its core - and you can verify it, since the code is open. can’t say the same for notion.

When to sleep?

This will be flagged, like previous content.

Why?

Because the only political position of silicon valley is profit

The official HN guide thing is

Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime... unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon

This story is politics/crime but sadly not an interesting new phenomenon.

Because hckrnews is for technology, and this has absolutely nothing to do with technology

There's plenty of other non-tech news here. Besides, the user base of HN is fairly smart, so reading their discussions from non-tech topics is often interesting.

> Because hckrnews is for technology

Could you quote the part of the posting guidelines where you see that?

If I link you some other non-tech items from the front page could you explain the difference?

You will loose 90% traffic and you will be happy [mem]
