I’ve been seeing this anecdotally on Twitter & Threads for years but it’s now being backed by data.

Why US Men Think College Isn’t Worth It Anymore
Rising tuition, the spread of more traditional ideas of masculinity on social media and a desire for an immediate income are working together to set boys on a different path.

We’ve been watching the Watch Duty team do absolutely *unbelievable* technical work all week (they’re members of our Fast Forward open source program), handling a surge of millions of people trying to see where the fires are in real time. There are still people who do such good on the internet.
Sending love to everyone in LA 💙 +Kudos to Watch Duty on their incredible work supporting those affected by the devastating LA fires.

Low expectations aren't a shield against disappointment – they're the architect of regret.
Having a low bar isn't "humble," it will crush your spirit.
Kick that bar up, be willing to work for it, and go for what you want.
Get up in the morning excited again.

I think AI is eating tech employment from both ends.
Gen AI doesn’t just make software programming more productive, reducing the need for new hires. It’s also INCREDIBLY expensive to buy GPUs/data center space/run inference, so the capex budget could easily nibble into the new-hires budget.

Continues to be a brutal labor market for the tech sector—net hiring has been 32k over the last year, compared to ~175k pre-COVID and ~250k at peak in 2022
