author is being polite, its even worse

javascript jobs will probably pay less than go jobs

javascript jobs will more likely tend to be viewed as "junior" relative to go jobs

I tell people to not become js devs if they don't want to be locked into a "junior" cycle of lower pay

there's no real reason for this, it just is

go will also eventually become a junior/low-pay skill, probably within five years


Hey, I went through your comments and I like your honesty and no-bs attitude. Could you tell me what you think the job market will expect from new grads in, say, two years? What skills do you think won't be "junior" in two years? Also, do you think it's plausible that most devops people will be replaced by maybe one guy writing terraform / pipelines etc for everything, assisted by a LLM?
