An Anchorage Daily News feature covers engineers who were the biggest winners of the last decade now losing footing as AI restructures hiring. 40 points on HN, thread dominated by people comparing current job searches against 2021-2023. Anecdote-driven, so it's sentiment signal not labor measurement. I know enough people in this exact position that I'm not inclined to dismiss it.
