> Multiple functional languages have been created in Europe
Which ones? just out of curiosity, because is totally irrelevant for the discussion: The car was invented in Germany, and for long years the best cars were German, but right now the industry is falling down non-stop... So there may be many people inventing whatever languages, when you search people to program, you just do not find good candidates.
I'm not arguing that people in Germany does not know functional languages. I just say, if you search somebody, is hard to find. The pay was damn good 80k/year. I was in a company in south Germany, maybe that is the difference?

Comments say it's skewed upwards, but that's what people working for international companies with respective skill set get. Employment is not marriage, people are always ready for a change if you offer conditions better that what they have. You wouldn't find a graduate in the US for this money. And I bet you are on site or at most hybrid, so are restricted to people living in your city if not town/village.

That is a big problem. I know for a fact, that in Berlin there are much more good SW devs. but here around they are scarse.
- oytis 2y agoOh, I missed that part. Berlin has experienced a COL explosion recently, so not sure how easy it is to find a good engineer for 80K. Dresden would do probably, but south is also crazy expensive AFAIK.
- pipes 2y agoML? I think.
- oytis 2y agoYeah, that too. I've listed some above, but also forgot Erlang, that's pretty important one.
