I've come to the conclusion most software devs are as soulless as all business majors.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I've tried talking to devs online about how we need at minimum collective bargaining, but we view ourselves as some kind of petit bourgeois, immune to the normal ravages of capital... sigh.

We're now seeing how much that is worth now that interest rates are shit and there's a glut of surplus labour to compete over the limited job pool.

Although many of the devs I speak to are like me: just trying to get by without selling out to the really giant corporations.
