Around 110 would've been ny guess, too; maybe a tad lower - we have some exceptionally gifted people, but also a lot of non-programmers, which probably moves us a bit towards the population average.

I don't know why this is getting downvoted. Yes, inequality exists and it sucks, but you still need to make the best out of what you have. Also, a lot of people seem to far overestimate the work and risk involved. This doesn't hel
