I’m not sure we’d see this starkly if people can change roles and shift between job types, but haven’t we seen firms engage in large rounds of layoffs and follow up by not hiring as many coders already over the past couple years?
Why fire devs that are 10x productive now and you can ship 10x more/faster? You don’t want to overtake your unaugmented competitors and survive those who didn’t fire theirs?
Why wouldn’t you see the firm freeze programmer hires and start laying off people en mass?
