Obviously Goladus doesn't know about all the layoffs in the tech industry over the past year. Everything is not a-okay, and the scores of programmers sitting at the freeway onramp at University Avenue holding "Will Code for Food" signs should be a lesson to all of us: don't enjoy prosperous times, because they're secretly a bubble that's out to get you.

maybe you can direct all those "will code for food" programmers this way. i don't know of many startup companies who aren't trying to hire...

there's a reason they'll code for food. if they were competent they would code for stock options. (except that you could go hungry trying to eat your stock options)
