I’m a nerd who enjoys playing Video Games, watching アニメ (Anime) and tinkering with things that probably shouldn’t be tinkered with 🤔

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Software engineer lost his $150K-a-year job to AI—he’s been rejected from 800 jobs and forced to DoorDash and live in a trailer to make ends meet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
So the author of the blog post that the article is based off of actually interacted with some comments over on Hacker News and there were some pretty interesting revelations - such as his resume having Vibecoding as the first skill listed on it and living/looking for jobs on the East Coast with a website sounding like he’s on the West Coast among other things.

I guess the media saw his blog post as a quick means of driving clicks through a clickbait headline. That’s not to say that the market isn’t hot trash at the moment, but I personally doubt Engineers are being replaced by AI.
