    It’s worse than that.

    The goal isn’t to sell coding superpowers to programmers. It’s to drive a wedge between employer and employee. Make both of them dependent on an intermediary instead of each other.

    Think DoorDash but for coding gigs. You don’t have a job, but a series of push notifications offering a chance to review an 18-line PR for $3.81.

    Remember to respond within the next 90 seconds to maintain your priority status, and don’t decline too many offers.
