If you ignore any company related to “cloud” or “AI”, especially if you focus on tech jobs at companies outside the software industry, there’s still plenty of hiring fresh coders going on.

$165,000 tech jobs are still out there. Usually they require at least 10 years experience, or a masters in mathematics or data science.

Fresh out of school? Try a $48-64k job and get some experience.

Every cellphone pings the local towers. Even ones with no SIM card that are “powered off”.

What the government has realized is that in most circumstances, that’s all the information they need: place and time. If they need more, then they force the person to use biometrics to unlock the device, and read all the contents.

This works for 99.999% of situations. For the people who don’t use biometric unlock and use burner phones regularly, they have to resort to other methods.

This means that for the most part, they don’t care at all about the encryption you use, or the apps you have installed.
