8 months agoThe consultancy I used to work for in the late 90s would have crucified any developer that didn’t write “a data abstraction layer that allows you to pop off the original db and substitute a different one later”.
How many times in my 25 year career have I swapped out the database (and been thankful for such an abstraction layer)? 0 times.
This will just be the way layoffs go from now on. Don’t quit. Just keep working from home while looking for another job until they fire you.
