And also I want to acknowledge everything that ends our career is not in our control .. like the dual forces of global offshoring / outsourcing and relentless automation (including AI driven) will continue to put downward pressure in the career curves of tech workers for next few years/decades.

It's interesting that the common sentiment on HN a couple of years ago was the polar opposite of that. I lost count of the number of comments that affirmed the boom was going to go on forever. Software was eating the world, etc.

I should point out that a perceived shift in the general opinion of the overall group doesn't necessarily mean that a lot of individuals within that group had a shift in opinion.

I.e., it's probably affected by who bothers to voice their opinion, and how memorably, at different times.

Software is steal eating the world, just not for employees.

But we will integrate with tech more, as a society.

I wonder where brick and mortar stores will be in 20 years.

It depends on the perspective. Global offshoring/outsourcing does an upward pressure in the career curves of tech workers anywhere around the world except few countries.
