• Death to the invincible engineer

  In the current job market where an average software engineer stays just 2 years at a single company, where remote work and freelancing lead to engineers having 2 or 3 full-time positions at the same time, and companies are firing thousands of software engineers with little to no notice, it’s easy to enter the me against the world mentality. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Has hiring slowed down lately?

  The market is in the toilet right now: https://layoffs.fyi/ (not my site fyi). - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Need some help/advice with my resume and finding a new role.

  I'd say I am not anti social, and I do get along well with people. No problem working in a team or by myself.
