Let’s say you are a junior dev that wants to maximize their income over the next 10 years, median outcome for someone capable of getting into a FAANG, not lottery tickets. What should you focus on? ML+Python+Pytorch because it’s hot right now? Java because no one wants to maintain legacy Java code but there are lots of it and the demand will be there? COBOL to take that even further? Node.js because it’s popular? Swift because Apple will continue to dominate the high end? Practice and pass the tests to get into a FAANG? Go work for a high frequency trading company? Learn SAP? Asking for a friend (TM). Seems like a particularly interesting time to ponder this question (again), with layoffs in tech all the rage and geopolitics looking a bit less ‘steady as she goes’ than say, 10 years ago.
