I analysed similar data (gathered via a rails app that scraped Aussie data scientist jobs data every hour for 2 years: https://www.kaggle.com/code/nomilk/data-science-language-and...). Salaries were trending down (!), however, I guess it's because lucrative roles like "ML engineer", and "data engineer" no longer go by the name of "data scientist" as they have in the past.
Very cool project - much more data than mine...
Perhaps salaries seem to be declining because it's using job post listing salaries not actual paid salaries?
I can imagine the negotiation position to get above listed is much higher now than in 2019?
