Lovely. Yeah Le Pen has met her match with you. Keep that up. People like my family (refugees) has more to lose with Le Pen than you ever will. That's the beautiful irony here. You useful dhimmis have no clue what Pandora's box you have opened.
Right... Well while you live in that Utopia of yours, large groups of Sunni fanatics are currently commuting genocide against non Sunni. How much % of Muslims should think killing apostates is okay until you deem it incompatible with France liberal policies. It's because of dhimmis like you that Le Pen is winning. Wake up and smell your ashes.
Edit: someone really needs to look up what Dhimmi means before they actually prove me right. How quickly someone can fall in ones eye. Never saw that coming lol. Full on Dhimmi.
I know how you feel man and I wish I could help you. Been talking with a former colleague of mine who blows most devs out of the water to apply to some jobs where he would be an amazing technical fit but it's hard to convince him to take the "humiliation".
There is another side to this than age. "Culture". A lot of people don't buy into the startup "culture" and won't be a good fit no matter how hard they work or how good they are.
I know people my age (30~) who can't get a foot in because they don't fit in with the hipster-frames-hoovering-art-director types who apart from being well connected founders also part time as diversity activists.
You can't call it a shortage when you expect developers to work 80 hour work weeks so you can squeeze $$ out of all your clients who decided not to hire in house for their main product on Android.
I thought it was pretty much known that the concept of SW-shortage was a big lie?
Not sure if the concept of Hirja existed during Rome, but you might want to look into it.
I don't want to live near islamists and my mother doesn't want to be called a whore in arabic for not wearing hijab - yeah my mum speaks Arabic.
You can't refrain from the fact that majority of the refugees are islamists in a sense that they deem apostasy as a crime and homosexuality punishable by death.
I wouldn't. It wouldn't take much until your "recognised" degree in Software Engineering contained some other unrelated shit just to appease some loud mouth lunatics.
So apart from learning Entity Component Systems 101, you have to take Gender Agnostic Components 101.
Github.com, create a library, write some tests, add documentation and let each employe valuate you individually to what they need the most.
You still won't avoid the dreaded cultural fit shit though.. No degree or Github portfolio will ever help with that.
