Today in tech: junior devs are getting squeezed out of the market, and hackers are getting creative with AI chatbots. Two very different sides of the industry's growing pains.
Junior software engineering hiring has dropped 40% since late 2024, and big tech is mostly hiring seniors now. The few junior roles left demand more experience, pay less, and include AI-detection tests that don't really measure skill.
