If the employer offers terms you don’t like then don’t work for them. If you feel inclined you can say “I’m taking a job with an employer who doesn’t pay based on location”. But there’s really no reason to do the employer the service of tel

Slightly off topic but collaborative programming seems to be a big unsolved and ignored problem in programming. A recent HN discussion on microservices had people saying (paraphrasing) “it’s the only way we can collaboratively build softwar
