I am perfectly fine with that, what are you trying to say with this?

  Do you want to compete with people who are just as smart or smarter than you, probably speak multiple languages, and are willing to work for 5-10% of what you get paid? pretty sure that is what the OP is trying to say. Some will thrive, many will not.

    That's always been the case anyway. Remote work doesn't change that.

    If those people are really that smart, they won’t work for 5-10% of US rates for long, but eventually find the highest bidder.

    > Do you want to compete with people who are just as smart or smarter than you, probably speak multiple languages, and are willing to work for 5-10% of what you get paid? Where do people find these amazingly smart programmers for only 20-40k/year?!

    I have worked with a lot of people who would smoke me on an aptitude test but there is often a littany of reasons you wouldn't want them anywhere near your development team. In most cases they hang at average because what we are doing is just CRUD and they have little initiative to dive deep into requirements refinement, product innovation, mentorship and other things requiring business acumen or outreach. Nevermind that some of them are just grumpy assholes high on pedantry.

    Modern paradox : Companies want global markets for products but no global markets for employment. What a tragedy!!
