I think, for many of us, our only experience with offshore code is with the bottom dollar coding sweatshops, which are universally shitty. I have no idea what % of offshore code work that represents compared to just a regular consulting fir

I don't completely disagree with you, but software development as a job is not purely based on how talented of a coder you are. There are many, many other aspects to the job that really have nothing to do with computers/computer s

I'm seeing you listing bad companies, but I'm not seeing a reason not to regulate the big tech ones. Not to mention, it's not like the government can't do both at once. Most of those industries you mentioned have other d

A single room rental? Quite possibly. A whole house/apartment rental? That person is likely not having problems.

At the same time, these tech companies moving in tend to drive rents up unsustainably, causing huge problems for the many citizens of those cities that aren't wealthy land owners.

But during the Obama administration, they were backfilling. It sounds like a lot of people are electing not to do that second term, and they're not backfilling open positions.
