It really is an exciting time for software engineers. I'm a soon-to-graduate student and have gotten so many job offers that I had to pretty much stop talking about it with friends/family. Does anyone else feel awkward admitting how easy we have it in tech right now when there are so many people struggling to find jobs?

Yeah, I got a call from a recruiter when I was out to lunch with non-programmer friends. The fact that I was annoyed by it drew some death glares.

Maybe they should be taking some programming courses, or reading some programming books, rather than glaring.

Not everyone can or even should be a programmer.

As a soon-to-graduate student as well, I am having the same issue. It is a blessing but also a curse, having to figure out what direction to take from so many options.

No, it's definitely not a curse.

I get it, it's just idle carping in an HN post but really, it's not a curse.
