It's like we've taken it upon ourselves to turn reality into THE stupidest version of any dystopia ever imagined by a human brain...
You want Terminator? Sure, but Skynet will be crap and people will die en masse due to infrastructure fuck-ups.
You want 40k? Sure, but the Men of Iron will be LLMs. Good luck figuring out those STCs once you develop beyond bonking pieces of wood together. Again.
You want 1984? Ok, but Big Brother is a Blackbox algorithm which has no idea what a human being is and just corrupts your feeds until it's nothing but inaccuracies and YouTube Poop and is selling your actual waist size and toilet paper preferences to random online advertisers.
You want Waterworld? Well, here! Have all the water you need! Good luck with your ocean based society once your flesh will start slow-roasting in about 30-40 years of living like this!
You want Mad Max? Well, better make it happen fast, because there won't be enough oil for it! Maybe solarpunk? Also, we're doing Waterworld first, let's see how you make it through that.
There are more, I'm sure, but I'm pissed off now.

Hey, you're not alone in this feeling. And it's OK to be pissed as well. As an unemployed senior web dev with over 20 years in this field, trying to navigate this job market is fucking laughable. There's an absolute flood of people just like me flooding every job posting with resumes, but the jobs never get taken down.
Junior dev positions are getting flow fed by senior devs needing work. The whole scene has been buttfucked by AI to boot, so my field is circling the drain already.
I guess a life of petty crime might pan out better...

I would legitimately take Camacho over orangeboi. Camacho at the very least pointedly consults an expert.

I think it's opposite, it will cover the industry in shit that someone will have to clean up.

I don’t know your stack, but I’ve heard Wikimedia Foundation has quite a few remote positions open.

it’s true -
I think it's opposite, it will cover the industry in shit that someone will have to clean up.
And the few people left with the ability to clean up the mess will make bank.

I agree. But in the meantime we are getting killed.

Mad Max is about the end of oil.
The first movie was all with ethanol vehicles, that people converted after oil run out. The second movie is about a group of people that found an old tanker ship, and one pulling oil drop by drop from a dead wheel. The third movie is about people using methane for everything because there was no more oil.
And then the next two are about huge reserves of surface oil all over the place.

Ooh, well, thank you kindly for clarifying the first one, at least! I was always under the impression that, although oil (or lack thereof) caused that apocalypse, the nutsos were just driving around on diesel all day long, and it kinda' didn't make much sense to me:)) But, hey, fast cars go boom, brain happy!
Edit: as a funny tidbit, the only gas propulsion which gained any prevalence in our country is Liquefied Petroleum Gas, and only taxis adopted it. Our Mad Max will be mostly loud, not as much fast!

They explain it on the beginning of the movie. Max has one of the 2 or 3 cars on the city because he's a road-cop, fuel is expensive as hell, so they insist he shouldn't use a lot of it.
The criminals there go from city to city stealing the little fuel they have.

Dammit, I really need to rewatch that one, I think my brain always misses the point because, again, fast cars go vroom...
Need to rewatch the third as well, now that you mentioned it.

Jesus, yeah, I have a lot of friends in that position... I was lucky enough to be able to quit before things became outright quicksand and am looking into completely different professions at this point. I don't want to touch a computer for anything other than fucking about in my free time. Maybe some data entry, but that's it. At least the diversity somewhat negates the impact of just how dire things are, I guess.
I honestly don't know how we'll get ourselves out of this one if things keep going the way they have.

Only web and information exchange. Hardware and critical systems are intact. Web and information needs better place than browsers from a long time. That's why I am betting on fediverse, but I don't think that's enough.

Yeah, same as crafts-people now.
Assembly lines increased minimum quality while reducing the maximum quality and caused a scarcity of people learning to make stuff themselves.So now the people that do, get paid more per amount of work. IDK how much work they get though.
