IMHO IT job market in Russia is so fucked up, I guess I'll build my own profitable SaaS faster than I'll find a job.

@shegeley Hmm, I assumed it would be somewhat easier to find a job due to so many programmers having left. I'll hold on to mine, I guess.

Are you trying to find anything specifically related to functional languages or lisps?

@sqrtminusone oh. I thought that you are in Germany.

Lisps (Clojure) is almost impossible. I've been in one place but failed my "intern period" (испытательный срок) cos of relaitve's death a year ago.

Then I was busy with doing lots of accociates personal+family things, posted the CV in September and started to really send it in October.

Clojure (other lisps) are my katana, and my second weapon is (rubber dildo) Node + Typescript stack. Only BS on it.

@sqrtminusone@bsd.caf I also think that the second one was totally broken by "волчары".

guys who exploit IT-HR system at it maximum and then whine about how all IT is broken swiping tears with 100$ cash

@shegeley I see.

Well, I'm narrowly staying while I'm doing a PhD. Will see what happens afterwards. I'd rather not leave, but if the alternative is leaving for Ukraine, I'd rather leave for Germany or anywhere else really. I'm just half-heartedly learning German and liking it.

I mean, I'd assume finding a Clojure job is hard in any case. Node+TS should be easier, that's also my primary stack, although I'd prefer Lisp, of course.

And I'm seeing a lot of stories how people spend a few months on job hunting, but IDK if they're representative. Still, another thing to worry about.

@sqrtminusone I also thought that it will be a Klondike after so many super-seniors leaving. but i guess only people who were already employed at some big foreign tech companies for years left for a warm place abroad
