I found the screenshot order confusing at first, and it's not OPs fault since the original article got the screenshots backwards too

From the article:

Synopsis Wes Winder, a Canadian software developer, is facing backlash after his controversial decision to replace his development team with Al backfired. Once a trending topic on Reddit and a source of widespread ridicule, Winder is now in an awkward position as he turns to Linkedln in search of web developers to hire.

Oh thank goodness I am not the only one. Just the way I, an American, read things, and my cynicism about people trying to replace devs with AI says top (trying to hire real devs) goes first and bottom (fired everyone) second; title and the fact this was posted in Programmer Humor implies it's bottom first and top second.

I think the confusion makes it better since he had to create a fake account to correct this misunderstanding.
