Thank you for providing a source. I went to the website. They themselves don't give any sources and they are a coding bootcamp with an incentive to talk up a shortage of developers for obvious reasons.
I went on the US Bureau of Labor statistics (BLS) and found this page(1). There is no mention of 1.4 million unfilled software jobs. To me this doesn't pass the smell test. There are currently 1.6 million developers according to the BLS. Can someone really say with a straight face there should be 2x that? If that were true there wouldn't be 4 rounds of leetcode and system design for every generic developer job.
