Every day there’s more big job cuts at tech and games companies. I’ve not seen anything explaining why they all seam to be at once like this. Is it coincidence or is there something driving all the job cuts?

What you said, I know that. Do the people that run these companies know that?

Yeah. Exactly. They did the same to various degrees when web frameworks first hit the scene, and numerous other advancements before and after.

But as you said, the new tech genuinely does make us both faster and better.

It just doesn't fix the crap parts of the job that the CEOs always hope it will. (As someone else pointed out, it specifically doesn't magic wand away decades of technical debt, haha.)
