I wish this was open to remote at least within California if not further out!

The idea with type hints in Python though is that they’re meant to be checked using some static analysis tool like mypy/pyright/etc. The runtime behavior for the most part remains unchanged in the sense that the Python interpreter

That's a good point. However, it could also happen that a good chunk of frontend work gets folded directly into the product owner/manager role. Hard to say which way things could go but it's interesting to speculate.

I can see it going a couple different ways: 1) The dichotomy between frontend vs backend dev evaporates entirely. Because GPT-x can churn out code so quickly, all devs will be expected to be fullstack and the job breakdown will be more like

While I agree that location shouldn't be relevant, the fact is that many companies will absolutely use (and probably already are using) this period of time as leverage to push for hybrid/full on-site roles instead of remote. The

Yes, I had my LinkedIn location set to NYC since I was living there before and forgot to update it. As soon as I set my status to #opentowork I started getting messages from recruiters for roles in NYC (and some in Chicago). To be sure, it

This seems extremely counter-intuitive. I'd figure with so many experienced and talented people looking, it would be an employer's market and they'd use it to reign in pay at least a bit. Why do you think this might not be oc

Exactly this. It's mind boggling that people seem to be focusing almost entirely on the use cases AI will enable, with no regard at all to how people will pay their bills once their jobs have been automated away. The reaction I see her

FWIW I just tried it and it worked for me. Perhaps you can check the base64 value you generated for the token? Sometimes error messages can be misleading... Good luck!

I'm assuming by "deps" you really meant "devs", and if so, I'd have to agree. I worked in the investment banking world for some years in a back office IT role and there were mini armies of devs there doing the

I'm roughly the same age as yourself and just got laid off last week, so I'm a bit early in my search but I'm experiencing the same things you've mentioned - quick, seemingly automated rejections with no feedback at all
