When people say that the tech market will bounce back up for CS graduates are they been delusion? People seem to have this religious concept that the tech sector always bounces back. It this copium? (lemmy.ml)

You should ask those people in what sense is the market going to come back up and what the timeline is.

Is it going to go back up in the sense that the oversupply of CS graduates will be solved? Probably.

Is it going to go back up in the sense that CS graduates will be given 6 figure salaries and VIP treatment? 0% chance.

How will the oversupply be solved?

[–] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 27 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The salaries will become low enough that people will give up on getting a Cs degree

If nothing else, eventually people will leave the field, and fewer new grads will enter the field. Might take 20 years though, who knows.

As a current nerd, I don't know where our future nerds will go instead. I went from maths to a software factory full of mech/chem/electronic engineering grads who realized at around graduation time that there's not a whole lot of engineering happening in the US. With that outlet shrinking, will a-guy s start proliferating?
