I just lost my job as a civil engineer and I’ve been trying to find resources, forums, staffing agencies, etc to help land me a job and all of what’s out there online talks about faang, leetcode, programming bullshit, etc. Call yourselves Computer scientists, programmers, hogs, i don’t care, please for the love just stop dominating all the ‘engineering’ discourse.

    Which, by the way, capitalist ghouls love to complain isn’t necessary and shouldn’t be taught.

    There's a lot of dumb CEOs in tech, and a lot of myopia with the "learn to code" people. But luckily the industry has mostly managed to maintain its emphasis on at least a baseline understanding of the underlying theory. Christ, imagine where we'd be if people just gave up on teaching data structures and algorithms, lol.
