And the US ruling class, in an attempt to counter elite overproduction, want to turn this place into a third world country. Can’t speak much about Canada.
Remains me of the derelict shithole I live in now.
I meet all sorts of people here that talk about the past residents of the city and the really cool, technology. One post the other day was about someone’s grandpa who was a chemist who pioneered the encapsulation used in scratch-and-sniff samples. My partner has all sorts of stories about the characters she’s met in her life and there’s a lot of really intelligent, create technical people.
There’s a little bit of that stuff left here, but it’s exclusive to the industry defense. There are hardly any companies hiring for any scientific/technical work outside of that. In their place, junkies, urban blight, and shitty Chinese manufacture ring companies that dodge immigration law.
The jobs exist, but they’re few and far between and often have heft credential requirements and tend to be focused in Asia (China, Taiwan, India).
Wow, sounds like a threat to nation security. Those Silicon Valley companies shills start donating to select donation campaigns with hope to ban Chinese LLM models.
Can you imagine? Your children being exposed to the propaganda that these LLMs will be inevitably tainted to spew?
Your so called “civilized societies” have continuously failed at this though.
You can’t keep failing and then demand your method is the correct method.
Yeah that wouldn’t fly nowadays. Your friend’s father would be hot with a slew of charges from “terroristic threats” to “meanacing”
So uh, will these ever make it to an auction site you think?
But their customers are enterprises. Until you’re bringing in the money that those enterprise contracts are, you’re a pathetic speck who can and will get what you’re offered and no more.
This country is populated by idiots that do not enjoy or like freedom. These people didn’t just seize power in a coup.
But not if they got bad grades in HS lol?
In my experience HW companies are rarely interested software engineers from other, non-related domains unless they’re hiring a team to do web interface or something.
If only. The optimizations they do on their matching algorithm has made the UX so terrible, I regularly use Lyft instead now.

Hmmmm… I think some mentally ill individuals on this site hate free speech despite their claims otherwise.
Aren’t most of the EE jobs in Asia now?
Are the engineering firms going to Chinese labs because of their rubber stamp approval or because the process is “tens of thousands” as opposed to “hundreds of thousands”?
The moment you start doing this at any scale, the companies will notice, and after a few winks, nods, and campaign donations, you will not be able to use it anymore.
I was tinkering since childhood and I was still tired of it pretty quickly. I always knew I do not want to work in software, but where the hell else was I supposed to go?
There was a thread the other day on RF engineering. There were a number comments describing it a “magic” or “sorcery”.
This is kinda how I felt about computers as a kid. I used to wonder about different types of software on my PC. “How does it possibly work”, “How could I make one”. It was this sort of curiosity. Over time, learning how the sausage was made, I just lost interest.
Nowadays I still find myself curious and inquisitive about how things work, just rarely software. Unfortunately most of the “magic” left in the world is a bit beyond my IQ level, such as the aforementioned RF stuff lol.
