I don't think it's meaningless on this context. Even the lower level of the average developer income in Europe would qualify. It shows the visa requirements are quite inclusive.

We'd need to scrape decades of work in hardware and software for that. Modern software sits on a foundation that was thought for a different era. They didn't have in mind the current challenges in terms of security and scale.

Sure, just don't complain about Open Source licenses after you chose it for your business. And don't claim it to be open source when open source doesn't work for your business. You choose open source or you don't. Either

I'm not saying it's bad or impossible, just that Open Source was not designed with your employer use case in mind. If you want to use it that way and it works for you, great. The thing is that support services aren't scalable

The point is that Open Source, by design, drammatically increases the likelihood of failure. It's already hard to build a successful business. Odds are already thin for you to succeed. Why choose a model that worsens it? Open Source wa

No, if you use a custom model (trained with your data), you'll pay around $20 per hour, minimum. That equates to ~$15,000. You can reduce a lot by committing to a 6-month contract, but it won't get cheaper than about ~$5,000/

I think most people here see the value of the article. Thank you for publishing it. Parent comment was also valuable to me, for seeing how important it is to listen to others before jumping to conclusions about the worthiness of something.

In my opinion, you might have an overly optimistic view of unions. And you might also be ignoring the downsides of unions. I get that unions were/are necessary for things like mining workers or so, but SWE is quite different. I'd
