Tend to agree. NYT's tech coverage especially can be pretty dire, not just on stuff like this but on crypto, too. Credit to the author/editor, though, for mentioning jobs elsewhere in IT are still in demand, halfway down the story.
- zer0zzz 4y agoTotally. And when the coverage on tech is this way it practically degenerates into tabloid journalism. It’s not even useful journalism. It’s just clickbait entertainment for dorks that enjoy reading about the doom of tech.
- TT482 4y agoThat's the truth of it. The sad thing is, there's probably a bigger market among NYT readers for more nuanced tech coverage than editors assume. Instead, there's a hierarchy of publications where these stories filter down, from the trade mags and review journals through to places like Wired, then finally to the big papers/mags. By the time the story gets there, though, it's lost all flavour.
