Machine Learning seems to be a hot technical skill that is in demand almost everywhere and pays very well. Korean companies are poaching ML engineers from the US and paying nearly SF salaries without the SF cost of living.

It's fueled by the LLM "AI" hype, so not sure how long the demand will last.

One of my friends thinks Salesforce is her ticket to a better career, but I'm not convinced...

Svelte(Kit) is very niche. The DX is very nice. While React has the quantity of openings, it seems Svelte has the quality openings. At least I found one of my best clients via the Svelte community.

Can you please elaborate on the last part? do you actively contribute to Svelte open source?
