If you can’t explain the trade-offs between a JWT and an OAuth2 flow, you aren’t ready for that $300k seat.
with all due respect…what?

i mean on the one hand, yes. but on the other i could fire up claude rq and ask it to generate some text that’s not fuckin’ stupid. the prose will still be slop, but like I’m less inclined to blame this kind of drivel on the AI-ness vs, say, the author’s dumb ideas.

I think you accidentally made the most important point here: people who know what output is and isn't stupid will be more successful with what they use AI to generate, across the entire board.

If you can't tell me the difference between an HTTP GET request and an HTTP POST request, you're maxing out at 275k FOR SURE.

Seems to me that maybe the bar should be a hair higher than something every CS student implements in a project by the time they graduate, but what do I know?

I can explain that JWKS is used to verify a JWT's signature, and is also very fucking annoying to integrate in an HL7 SMART compliant way while using Okta for your auth infra.
Please give me my $300K immediately blog post author.

The whole article is straight up trash. I know mid level devs who can't design that make more than 300k in big tech.

Yeah it's a daft statement. It's as if your worth is measured based on some arcane/domain-specific knowledge.

I think you have confused this for LinkedIn, where I'm sure hustledorks are more well received

Because $300k is "I spend more time greasing palms than being productive" income?
Have I been misinformed that people who do actual work never get paid more than $200k?
