Welp ... I was just informed through a Slack DM that I will no longer be working at the place I'm working at in two weeks' time. That is, evidently, how we handle that now. Not entirely unexpected as the writing on the wall was evident, but still not loving that approach for reasons I haven't quite worked out yet.
If anyone needs help with their #accessibility from someone with both native #screenReader experience and a coding background, keep me in mind I guess 😊 #fediHired #layoffs

🎓 College graduates are screwed thanks to AI
｢ Artificial intelligence has gutted entry-level roles in the tech industry that Mishra and his classmates were counting on. Among his 400 classmates at the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design and Manufacturing, fewer than 25% have secured job offers. His course ends in May 2026, and there’s a sense of panic on the campus ｣

🤡 Executives will keep doubling down on AI right before the whole thing collapses, and then they'll blame bigtech and the government for not doing proper due diligence on a bunch of broken ifs pushed by dropshipping moguls
