I don't like the headline. But the article does explain why he feels it's the wrong career choice for himself. I can understand many of the reasons he cited, but many can be refuted. For example he can double or triple his salary by moving to the USA and working for a FAANG company. He can also choose to work at companies that view programmers as a valuable resource than a cost center.
- fortnum 6y ago"moving to the US" is a very generic statement. For starters, one can't simply move but needs to fulfill the immigration requirements, one of which is employment which one has to first find. So no, it's not as easy as you may make it sound like.
- cedilla 6y agoFor most people, moving some ten thousand kilometers away from friends and family isn't really an option. I agree that the author isn't saying anything much, but "just work somewhere else" also isn't a very strong point.
