I think cost of living in so high that many have no choice but to drink the koolaid. Software engineers in the US gets paid the highest in the world. The price for it is to become a part of the culture. It's sad, but how else will they be able to afford having a family?

- Ancalagon 4y agoYou just said SWEs are some of the highest paying positions in the US. Not to mention many are able to work fully remote. It should be feasible that even with a family they can move.
