> Software has been eating the world. We're probably far from peak software. Whether we're far from peak software developer compensation is another story -- I wouldn't know or make any predictions, informed or otherwise.

- himinlomax 7y ago> Plus, we will reach peak software eventually - likely decades out of course I'm amused by people who think that some tech will erase their tech job. Take ops automation (Ansible, not robots); some people think that it's about cutting tech jobs. Obviously there's definitely not fewer SREs today than there were sysadmins 20 years ago, far from it. Until a major paradigm shift occurs, the need for software / tech can only grow in every economic niche. A crisis is coming, it's not going to be a problem for those with IT skills / abilities, but for those without.
