Quite. As soon as the big companies started switching to WFH and employees left for places with lower COL, said businesses began lowering waged based on physical location.
This immediately proved the wages were artificially inflated, and were the effect of SV madness.
With location being of less importance, the need to hire only the best seemes to have waned (not really it was always a bs rhetoric).
I've said repeatedly that programming is to this bubble what web designers were to the last.
I've also said it's not some magic language like some pretend it is, I made sure all three of my children picked up various programming languages from a young age.
As always, I could be wrong, I just call it how I see it.
