"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I don't know if a lot of tech needs to hire back. Outside of AI, tech adoption is on the right side of the adoption S-curve and most development time right now is going to revenue generation.

And if you do need to hire back, you don't need to hire from HCOL areas. Make the position full remote and price the salary to a LCOL area. You don't need to pay a Bay Area wage any more.

lol you think those fucking idiots will go back to remote work? they've spent every year since covid trying to force everyone back into the office.

They will for new hires when they can pay them 50%.
