A lot of these layoffs are due to hyper valuation and poor hiring choices by these big companies based on the growth projection(which wasn’t real) and this correction is not the end. I would take this or any other “KZreadrs” advice with a grain of salt, it really matters how you sell your skill set when it comes to landing your first role or even 10th role, I would not worry about learning to code(always be strong with fundamentals), you would be surprised how many incompetent people work as SWE in the valley with pure luck , some of them openly outsource their work to third world countries, so don’t worry about AI, learn to code and keep your skill set updated and you will be fine

coding is here to stay ai cant think of all user use cases in the real world stop worrying those big techs are just trying to save money.

Really appreciate how blunt you are about the road to learning to code. I’ve been in project management for years and decided recently that I want to make the jump to web development. I know it’s going to be a long road, that jobs won’t come easy, but the long term benefits you laid out are what I’m looking forward to. Also looking forward to your site going live!

While AI, including models like ChatGPT, has the potential to impact various industries, including web development, it is unlikely to completely replace human web developers in the foreseeable future. AI tools can certainly assist and enhance the work of web developers by automating certain repetitive tasks, generating code snippets, and providing solutions to common problems. This can free up developers to focus on more complex and creative aspects of their work.

I like to think of it as a shift in how we code. Instead of being the writer, director, and the producer, I now get to have a writer (AI) doing a lot of the work for me, while I can direct all the big picture moving parts.

Great Advice, must be adaptable and persistent. Programming is evolving. In the midst of the A.I. revolution, being a beginner can have it's advantages. For example, At a google devfest, I overheard a senior dev worry about not being able to properly train junior devs because of the skill gap between both parties. Where junior devs are being taught the new trends hence A.I. Hearing that made me realize theirs levels to learning and it's okay to be a beginner . Whether 3 months or 3 years it will be worth it because it's honest hard work that I am investing in myself. I know getting the first gig is gonna be sweet. I do feel it's a gold rush for A.I. and it's better to sell the picks and shovels or what not while digging for gold. Anyhow, thanks for the motivation Chris. -beatsRhymesCodeLife

Just remember that you are just a cog in a hyper capitalistic machine in American society, and if the company is going to furlough or terminate a few employees to keep their profit (such as possibly using AI), then they would. If you are making $80K but you live in an area that is high cost of living, then you are nearly underpaid. If you are making over $100K in a high cost of living, then that is the bare minimum. Being a software engineer is not all roses like what you see in these "day in the life of a software engineer". There will be high amounts of stress, exploitation, over 40-hour work weeks with calls after your 9-5 job, long commutes from stressed out drivers, and unrealistic expectations from the higher ups that you need to meet their demands (unless you want to be possibly fired). You need to be realistic and realize that being a software engineer is like any other job in America such as a health care worker, an engineer, a technician, etc. If you get laid off from a company and can't find a job due to the economy or other laid-off programmers also looking for work, remember not to be afraid to apply for unemployment and be open to other part-time jobs until you get another software opportunity which could take months. With the oversaturation of software developers, rising cost of living (i.e. inflation), company lay-offs, and the almost impossibility of owning a house or raising your own family, at the end of the day to always never forget your close friends and families because they will be there for you. Just wanted to give a different perspective on a micro-level and not a high level bird's eye view on what it is like to be a software engineer

Never, ever, ever get a graduate degree in engineering unless you have a good reason. The vast majority of roles won't pay you more for one. Vast majority don't see it as a big benefit. Vast majority of roles don't need one. Only AI engineers seem to really need more than a B.S., but that extra 2-3 years could probably be better spent just working on AI rather than taking grad school.

1-2 years is realistic. I was a UX designer and got a job after 6 months, was laid off and it took me a year and a half to land a job. Wasn't even a UX role. But the company saw I knew design and now I'm a graphic designer for them and looking to add projects to keep it moving to eventually get a UX role. Feel like anything in tech right now is super hard because all companies want right now is AI and are probably over hiring for it much like during COVID everyone wanted devs and UX designer. Not sure where things are going to go but I just know you're right, keep at it. Even if you learn to code in 6 months then look for a job, you'll keep evolving your skill set that by the time you land a Role, you'll be so much better than if you landed it in a short time. When you're hungry you want to be fed. You'll keep working so so hard that I'm sure it'll be better than a job with your growth. Was that for me at least

Tell me about it. I was a helpdesk tech for over 14 years. I started very young with MS- DOS 5.0! for fun learning and helping others . My first job was in 1998! I have been laid off for over a year. I am not even able to get work at the local fast food places. I was the one that supported the family and now we are living off my mom's retirement. I have reached out to friends, co-workers and temp work with absolute no luck. I really don't understand it at all. I am not a lazy person and people that had worked with said I was very nice. I have the latest experience so why am I here crying all day?

Devs are the biggest obstacle to other devs. We love to put each other down and make each other feel inferior, showing people how they can improve is one thing, but treating them as sub human because they don't understand or don't do things exactly the same way you do is something different. Or even worse, gatekeeping, you're not allowed to touch MY code. Acting like a toddler that doesn't want to share their toys over software that doesn't even belong to you 🤣🤣🤣 I love coding but working with devs for the last 10 years has worn me down.

The person who is going to beat you is the person who knows how to code, and at the same time understands how to operate a lathe. Someone who can take the schematic from the screen and into the physical world by machining. The people you have to worry about are the electricians who learn how to code. These are the people getting all the jobs. The time of easy work is over. When tech companies hired people just so other companies wouldn’t hire them and have them. Also, improve your physical appearance. It sends a cognitive message to the person interviewing you. If you look like you sit at a computer screen all day and have a flabby body, not good.

5:55 I get it but at this point, isn't it better to try to make money build Saas products..? Within 2 years and 5 or 6 differents services tried, seems more encouraging. Let's not talk about that the fact you have coded real products will always give you an advantage to get headhunted

Influencers made a bubble arouns tech. Even my grandma is learning python come on

And?

Stop discouraging people to get into coding. I was told this same thing 5years ago when WordPress came out newly. Everyone said front end developers will be out of jobs. Fast forward to 2023 they're still getting jobs, next 5years, they'll still be relevant

@@treasurestrove170 damn. Good point. I could have just lied to not discourage people. But I see where you’re coming from. I have to be as honest as possible. I want people to know how hard it will be. Sorry if you feel discouraged.

youre losing weight, you look good, weldone :) Why do u regret moving to devrel if i may ask??

Unrealistic expectations. Companies don’t know what they want from their developer advocates.

This is probably the 15th video i have seen about this on youtube,..😅 change is certain in life and so it is for coding. Adapt with the changes and realign yourself,..these videos in my opinion is only for views and click bait

"I thought these layoffs would eventually end." Why? This is how capitalism works. I hope you're willing to build something better.

They can't lay everyone off without people who earn money there's no consumer the economy will crash

My employer forbids the use of AI in theyre policy.

Well, youre looking at big companies, with their workload of course they're going to use AI, but you miss the fact that there are more than thousands of smaller companies and organizations that need programmers, computer and data scientists. Also ye AI IS taking over but thats not the one who's going to beat you in the race, its the people using AI to their advantage, so play by the current rules of the game.

We need this kind of honesty in the community man. Every single student or anyone aspiring to do digital work of any regard needs to LEARN AI RIGHT NOW. Seriously NOT AN OPTION. Better sooner than later. It's a tool that's going to make you more productive, period.

Not everyone or every business is concerned with AI 😅

Tech is not the holy grail .... I pity people that are leaving stable career to enter a bubble .... The intent of Learning to code should be to be able to build your own apps ... Stop trying to kiss companies asses ... Learning to code shouldn't stop you from being an engineer, doctor, lawyer and so on ... I think it's time people wake up and stop falling for all this false hope

aint no way this youtube channel generates 20-30k a month 🤣

Yeah I'm not buying that either. Nor am I buying the path to $200K for most people even with hard work. Seems the money in tech these days is teaching rather than doing.
