I need to stop responding to people who ignore me. Feels like talking to a wall. They all have me muted. 🙄
Speaking as the mom of a computer science student:

Fewer young people are entering the field, and the ones that do are increasingly focusing on specialties that offer geographically-tied jobs. Crypto has got to be the absolute worst field for new cs hires, as there are zero entry-level positions, zero job security, zero geolocation, and zero on-ramp. The whole space is completely dominated by a handful of experienced devs running 194710 agents, and there is no room for advancement. Not to mention that the whole thing is a political mindfield.

It's better to just work in a hospital programming prosthetics, or something, or manage drones for excavators, take your income in fiat, and stack sats.

The only thing more of a dead-end career than crypto is AI.
