QT has pretty much destroyed the tech field

submitted by Acrophonic to Rants 11 monthsJun 14, 2023 08:14:05 ago (+23/-0)     (Rants)

Im lucky to still have a job, but the lack of cheap credit and free money has pretty much dried up the entire field. My one recruiter who has been employed for over a decade, who could actually do her job right, is being terminated this month. And even for those jobs hiring, they are being incredibly picky now on who they want to hire, not helped by ESG/DIE scores.

Quantitative tightening: jews turning off the free cash

I was thinking trans and queers as they are a problem. From 1996-01 I was running websites in California. Our server farm was in Mountain View. I saw the rise tech and the people in it. Geeks and Nerds yes. I was one as well. No one gave a shit about who was a fag or trans - no one had time for that. Program - lan party - program. Add your favorite stimulant in-between. It was more frat life than fag life. I first started to notice fags and queers around '07 I had my own agency and saw fags push Linus out of Linux and was floored. That was the signal that it was OK to be a fag cunt and make your shit more important than everyone else. Before, the status was based on who was best at coding, best at quake or best at overall knowledge. The Alpha Geek. No one questioned this person, as they would pull you out of a hole when you most needed it.

Fags, queers and trans? They smelled. Like shit too. it permeated them. I left it all in 07 as the world turned upside down. When I looked back faggots queers and trans had a firm hold of it. Its been FUCKED since.

Nostalgia from before Clown World. Maybe one day people will be judged by their skills again.

nope, why would we care about that? I want my Whites only country, no non Whites at all, don't care how fucking smart they are, get them the fuck out

Yep... and real Whites, no jews, light beaners, etc.

It's jews. Faggotry was just a convenient cause to pin their hat on. If it was the 70s it'd be feminism, if it was the 30s it'd be labour.

I thought you meant the QT graphics library, which I didn't know was even used on purpose anywhere.

I used to love QT, then they paywalled the crap out of their installers and charge obscene amounts for their monthly licensing

I built a couple of apps with Qt. Used python bindings on the first one which was nice bc you don't need a separate compile step on each code change.

I thought that too.. I wanted to buy their stock because they get shit done right. Turns out it's private the way chic fila was and you can't buy stock

Qt was a cross-platform ui library written in C++ … now it’s a group or something https://www.qt.io/

We're going to war or something major is gonna happen this year. The tech industry collapsed the same way before 9/11. Shifting money.

[ - ] AugustineOfHippo2 5 points 11 monthsJun 14, 2023 08:39:58 ago (+5/-0)

salaries have stagnated, most available jobs are just make-work un-fun garbage.

[ - ] Acrophonic [op] 5 points 11 monthsJun 14, 2023 08:59:08 ago (+5/-0)

Noticed this too, wages stay where they are, but prices go up 30% or more. It's like chopping your salary in half, without directly touching the salary. You still think you make good money, whilst everything around you gets more and more expensive

D'awww the work-from-home pussy party is over!

The developer I work for sold their building a year into Covid and announced we were remote forever. A lot of employees left Austin and are now spread out all over the world. I don’t think they could get everyone to regroup for reopening a physical studio.

My pussy party is ever lasting. I commuted 3 hours a day for 26 years. I’ve earned this nigger faggot.

You're gonna be real dissapointed once AI replaces you in a few years

it's already replacing you though kike?

You project onto others that which you are guilty of constantly lmfao...you must be afraid AI can do banking and financing which leaves kikes like you SOL lmfao hahhahahahahahahahahaha

cope and seethe harder about yourself and your own situation while pretending it's not exactly the situation you are dealing with lmfao

It will replace you too. It's coming for everything. Surprisingly manual labor jobs and trades are tougher as the "brain" part appears to be self solving BUT shortly after agi and asi ALL jobs are gone. Hell we might just be erased.

It's coming for everyone.

Youngsters in my company that make characters, FX, props, UI, and environments are pretty worried. But AI will not replace animation. It’s too complex. Gonna be a long time before these bots can animate, and I’m preparing for retirement. I’ll get out just in time.

Lol I'm not lying. You're a useless soft body. Best part is if I showed you my total compensation report you'd freak out and feel like a little bitch. I'm likely much younger than you with less dollars invested in jewn-iversity out earning you.

I can do 3-4 pull ups which is pretty decent for my height and weight. I could get about 20-25 when I was competing in boxing

Oh okay now you're having some fun with the fantasies lol. If you were really some big badass tough guy you would have showed up to San antonio. As it is you don't leave home. Home is where you belong, where the fantasies of grandeur are

Weird I just heard about a pharmaceutical sales rep being laid off.

I never hear shit like that. Then I knew a pharmisit who tried hiring a warehouse guy and they can't find anyone to work.

It's like the high paying jobs are being destroyed and the lower jobs can't be filled. I truly don't know how society is still functioning

but it's usually better to do what everyone else isn't doing

Yup.

I'm so fucking glad I'm getting into real estate appraisals. Most of appraisers are 65 and older, and even now a lot are retiring. I know because I called at least 100 of them in my area and anyone older is winding down or closing up shop.

As it stands now, I could be actually working 3 days a week (not considering answering calls, emails, texts, etc.) making right at $100k a year, on top of making my own schedule outside of having to occasionally rely on others for inspection dates/times. Outside of that though, clients don't give a crap when I work so long as I'm done with the assignment by the deadline.

In training now, give another 6-7 months and I should be done. Training sucks, time wise. I feel like I don't know exactly what I'm doing most of the time and it's usually a 9am-7pm sort of day. However, I'm still a total rookie. Just hit 100hrs yesterday, and I need 1000 to be able to get my license. It isn't rocket surgery, but you do have to remember a lot of little things and how to do x thing vs y thing on z report type. It can get a little messy in the head.

Given time and experience though, Hell, it'll mostly be second nature.

And training... it's only going to be for a couple more months. Annnnd in about 5 weeks I get a week long vacation.

Really can't complain. I can bitch, yeah, but can't complain.

nobody wants to do because it sucks.

Nobody does my field because nobody thinks to do it, and to get into doing it isn't just "I have degree I have job". It's a lot like a trade in some ways, just much less physical labor.

When you remove the slack from any system all of the 'slackers' wither and fall away because they are no longer being supported by the excesses that were a part of the system. The 'slackers' are, essentially, any marginal contributor and can consist of up to 80% of the participants.

This is nothing more than a rephrasing of the Pareto Distribution, as mentioned by Jordan Peterson in many of his lectures.

A consequence is that since there are a lot of people living in the margin there are social costs to taking these steps. The effective result is for income to be concentrated increasing income inequality.

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

Our monetary policies have destroyed most industries. Other than financials

[ - ] pickingrinninspittin 1 point 11 monthsJun 14, 2023 10:23:09 ago (+1/-0)

Absolutely true. And it's important to note that the financial sector generates ZERO wealth. All it does is move wealth around with the explicit aim of moving more wealth to the actor. And since no additional wealth is being generated that means others have to lose wealth.

At the same time the sectors of the economy that do produce wealth and contribute to growth are the ones that have been decimated by the greedy short sighted fucks in the financial sector. A relatively small handful of 'smart guys' have gotten obscenely rich at the cost of all of the rest of us. Some are 'fortunate' enough to be allowed to receive small profits from their stock portfolios. But the rest are literally "the poor" and are getting poorer with each passing day.

That's good. Most tech faggots are liberal degenerates. All those journalists who told coal miners to "learn to code" are going to tell you to "learn a trade".
