It's not that we didn't have APIs, but it's the reality that they have penetrated every sector beyond early-to-medium adopters. Even regulated companies are moving to the cloud and using public web services at this point. Ten years ago these companies would have been playing around with these things for sure, but not using them for their core business. This is creating demand for generalists within that huge section of the economy that isn't a top-tier pull for talent because the demands are different. These demands can't sustain frontend devs who could be working at Facebook. Eventually they will need specialized folks, but for now that continues to come from outside consultancies, just like it always has for this set of companies. |
