What Jamie wrote

Super interesting observations on the state of the job market for software engineering. There is a lot made of AI's impact on software engineering, and a lot of guessing frankly about that impact. This article suggests that the bigger factor is actually changes in interest rates which impact the startup ecosystem the most. Secondly he suggests that tech is particularly reactive to sudden changes, more than other industries. Being close to this topic, I also think observations about what works and doesn't work in scaling engineering teams is interesting.
