It's unbelievable and frustrating that _we basically built our own demise._
We built the most meritocratic and accessible career path possible. If you knew how to code, and you invested in your craft (or didn't!), you were more-or-less guaranteed multiple amazing, well-paying career paths anywhere in the world.
Yet, a cohort of us decided "what if we built this thing that literally does our job? what could possibly go wrong?"
Yeah, this is gatekeeping, but the medical and legal industries have perfected that, and our industry doesn't even require advanced degrees to climb the ladder! (John Ternus only has a B.Eng in MEng!)
Why did we Eric-Andre-meme ourselves?

Do you know what people on H1B visas and Meta forcing their workers to be spied on have in common? That people on visa have to agree to anything and can't refuse. This is how this tech came about, by forcing people who literally have no other choice.
