There's no point talking to you. I've told you that the market is dying for such people but you manage to put a negative spin even on that. My guess is that you are a terminal gloomer in which case, I suggest that you move to China or India and find things wrong with their system that have no solution (according to you).

I guess we should all just shoot ourselves in the head now...

who says the market is "dying" for such people? US tech firms have been screaming about these "shortages" of people for years - its the ruse they use to justify H1B visa programs, foreign student visas, anything and everything to suppress salaries. the engineers who work in these companies see this everyday, they understand what is going on in reality - that's why they are piling their college bound kids into law school.
