There are enough developers to meet demands, Tim just doesn't want to pay them or train them himself. Tim wants more of a supply of developers to lower their wages, not because Apple can't find developers anywhere. They're out there, Apple just has to train and pay. The capitalists always have a surprised Pikachu face whenever they find out that their pressure they put on society and their pressures applied to workers at every level results in them running out of customers and employees. Might I suggest that Apple offer a paid (as in, decent living wage pay) apprenticeship program to create their own in-house developer pipeline? Have they tried that yet? People can't work for Apple if they can't afford to learn the skills required to do so. Apple could lobby the government to increase investment in public education and reduce or eliminate tuition. They could lobby the government to solve the student loan and school affordability crisis. People won't work for Apple if Apple only offers a 40+ hour per week stressful pressure cooker environment. Maybe be more flexible and hire more part time developers or implement a 4-day work week to attract talent? Try getting rid of tech bro hustle culture and break glass ceilings that people still encounter? Women leave tech at a much higher rate than men. Wonder why that is? [1] People also leave the workforce if there is insufficient child care and paid leave provided for new parents, but I don't see any companies lobbying for guaranteed paid leave. People can't work at all if they're dying from poor national healthcare policy, pandemic denialism, and conspiracy theories that are sourced from directly from those capitalists who are crying for labor supply. Sorry, Tim, maybe you should talk to your capitalist buddies who own Fox News and OANN about their propaganda machine that spread misinformation about masks and vaccines. Corporations don't even realize how much detaching healthcare from employment and implementing a universal system would help them in the long run, they're too short-term-focused on using healthcare as a method to hold their employees hostage. Tim is CEO of the largest company in the world and can make a difference in all these ways, but I highly doubt he will do so in a way that's anywhere near progressive. CEOs don't know how much a banana costs and don't understand the real challenges that typical people face. They don't know what it's like to grow up in a home where their parents are completely absent because they're working two jobs to put food on the table. Tim needs educated employees for his corporate machine but doesn't advocate for any of the measures to reduce wealth inequality that would lift everyone up and result in an overall more educated society.
