@pkwI would be thrilled to get a job doing C... but they seem kinda few and far between (especially for someone not very proven as a dev.)

Yeah idk, I'm prepared to say I have more experience than I do in C.Also C++. But I do have more experience in c++.For the longest time I wrote off C because (i thought) itwas a subset of C++. But now that I have been immersed in itthey seem like two diff langs to me.Oh anyways I was doing python dev and I don't think there's as muchwork there as there was. I could also go back to java and be happytoo. I only had the one python job, but I was so soured by gettingforced to work in LLMs that python might be dead to me.(Lots of the LLM BS is in python, and python is the one that i think LLMcan generate the best. (best is subjective))I mean getting a job in commonlisp ... swoon.Or even Scheme, Janet, Golang, Elixir ... but I'm guessing those are really niche.IDK the hiring and interview process is awful to me, so I am timid :P

@pkwI tried to get a job that would involve mostly C++, which is its own beast compared to C, but eh, survivable... and the interviewers asked what I thought of LLMs. We did not see eye to eye on that.
