I remember when companies would hire fresh out of uni (sometimes not even uni just enthusiastic), without experience, and then build them up brick by brick, into a competent developer. Contrast this to needing to be in the top 5 leetcode just to pass the HR screener, and then throwing into the deep end just so they can PIP you in 3 months because they didn’t give you any time and resources to train you up.

So now we have a gap, and the best fix we collectively came to was give senior developers AI so they didn’t need to hire fresh starts.

Gee… I wonder why we have a problem :shrug:
