How much of it is actual competitiveness and how much of it is the artificial barriers people put in the form of technical interviews?
There's a big gap between software craftsmanship and the algorithmic trivia interview expectations nowadays, and it seems to keep widening.
- ativzzz 6y agoWorking on the cutting edge implies some sort of combination of greater talents and ability to work harder than others (hence increased competition), which means that the artificial barrier is a mere pittance. The people interested in doing cutting edge work will find a way to be there no matter what. The vast majority of people overestimate themselves.
