We see the evidence in the article of "everybody struggling" is:
-Berkeley students haven't gotten as many internship offers and their salaries are not exceedingly high (but they are still getting offers).
- He claims his son is struggling.
I dunno, maybe he is right but this doesn't sound exactly like Armageddon.
Also this: "it's going to be a great career. It is future-proof — that changed in four years"
Huh? How is it not still a great career? Just because Berkeley grads can't get insane salaries right out of college? Also, how was is ever future proof -- I've been constantly retraining on technologies for 30 years.
This article is just soundbites, nothing to see here.
Most people don't speak or write literally about this kind of subject.
