Earlier today I wrote on HN: "We can see it coming now - the Final Solution to high tech salaries. Expect to see a huge downward salary trend in the web front end/back end sector. That stuff is a solved problem. Expect salaries for new hires to drop below $100K and old hires being gradually pushed out."

This new post says that's already happening.



That’s easily viewed as a pricing in of automation. Amjad Masad of Replit is predicting fully automatic software engineer bot by end of year. Me and my girlfriend were ahead of the curve and are high enough up the ladder that we won’t be effected. Others will have a harder time.


>effected Yeah sounds about right for a middle manager.
