- bigcostooge 9y agoInternational responses skew the salary data and make it useless.
- gota 9y agoThis is true. It always feels weird answering these kinds of questions living outside of the US. You can easily have a salary that is several times the average of your country (I'm talking like 20x) and still make about half of what you'd make in the US, when shown in USD.

- coffeeaddicted 9y agoLeast paid developer type is game development. And c++ is commonly used there.
- taway_1212 9y agoC/C++ are basically languages used only for technical products, while Java/web is used internally by pretty much every large company on Earth. This puts immense pressure on salaries.
