State of Tech Salaries Report 2018
Outstanding report on developer salaries by our buddies at Hired.com. Some very interesting insight here, including the rise of alternative tech hubs to Silicon Valley, though the decline of London salaries doesn’t ring true to me.

Every Study We Could Find On What Automation Will Do To Jobs, In One Chart
We’re all over the map in predicting what AI + Automation will do to jobs, so how very handy of MIT to compile the relevant studies into single chart, complete with links to the primary sources. One to bookmark folks.

Descript
Lets agree that transcribing audio is one of the things we definitely want to automate. Descript might be one of the first tools to actually do it. Take note (ahem), the podcasters amongst us, as well as anyone who is still doing interview notes (which is more or else all of us)

Unpacking The Gender Earnings Gap Among Uber Drivers
What an imperfect messenger this is, but the data is convincing and it’s important we get a nuanced view on gender earnings disparity. How could there be a gap when pay is calculated on a gender blind, transparent formula? Turns out, men - on average - drive faster.

‘Forget About the Stigma’: Male Nurses Explain Why Nursing Is A Job Of The Future For Men
