Ask HN: Do you think DeepSeek success will improve the hiring market? (ycombinator.com)
The LLMs in general are already having an impact. The price per line of code has and is falling. Anyone who won't use them to their advantage will be left behind. Deepseek is just one tool that coders will need to use to write code.

Ask HN: How Do Recruiters Still Have Jobs? (ycombinator.com)
Candidly, it doesn't make sense for recruiters to do "screen" calls to "go over" stuff that's already on my resume and re-confirm that I don't require a visa, despite indicating that I can work legally in the US (US Citizen) in my application on Lever or Workday.

Why Companies Overspend on Recruiting and Underspend on Retention (blackentropy.com)
I’ve been stewing over this for a while, because the disconnect is absolutely mind-boggling. On the one hand, companies shell out massive amounts of cash to snag new hires—signing bonuses, cushy relocation packages, recruiters working overtime. On the other hand, they’ll practically watch their existing talent walk out the door without lifting a finger to keep them around.

Hey, wait – is employee performance Gaussian distributed? (timdellinger.substack.com)
It’s probably Pareto-distributed, not Gaussian, which elucidates a few things about some of the problems that performance management processes have at large corporations, and also speaks to why it’s so hard to hire good people. Oh, and for the economists: the Marginal Productivity Theory of Wages is cleverly combined with the Gini Coefficient to arrive at the key insight.
