Maybe the poster is in another country. I live in a third world contry where most work is grunt off-shored work. Most positions here are for devs with 1-3 years of experience, and there are loads of them. If you are more experienced and want a good job you need to work remote with an overseas company.
It's interesting you say that.
Based on one source [1] there is a 10% decrease in job outlook 2020-2030 for "computer programmers".
Another says [2] there is a 22% increase in job outlook 2020-2030 for "Software Developers, Quality Assurance Analysts, and Testers"
"Info Security Analyst" [3] shows a 33% increase in job outlook 2020-2030
Yet in another another... The annual projected job openings for software developer for 2018 - 2028 is 134,000. [4]
That's 1.34 million job openings over the course of those ten years.
