How does an employer distinguish a worker who is trying hard only because he is on probation from a worker who will continue to try hard after the probation period ends?

That wouldn’t be caught in a live-coding interview either, right?
At some point of your society has decided it values job security, the jobs will have to become secured. It is a trade-off.
OK, but that is not responsive to "Just hire devs and kick them out if they dont fit ur needs."
I’m not sure how to respond to this, saying “that is not responsive” doesn’t really make an argument or anything.

If they try hard for 6 months during probation, then congrats on having a motivated dev for 6 months. If they fall off hard after, kick them out. It's only 3 months of salary. Compare that to thesalary and hiring process of finding a good dev, which is more expensive in many cases.

Thanks for the info.
Was for Europe, I am sure its easier in less regulated countries.
You can't, in the same way you can't distinguish a romantic partner who is using you from one who genuinely likes you. Because clairvoyance is not real.
That's just a risk we all have to take.
They don't but usually wages are scaled to average. So So average output will still be what is expected. Really bad ones well, you start giving notices. And then with enough evidence you can terminate contract.
There is no 60 minute test for months of malingering
