> You're lucky in a sense, many places are forcing 13 months contract nowadays, which instantly steals 1/12 of your income. Many maybe, but I doubt it's the majority since I never heard about this in our industry.

I know that feeling. Big companies are a scam. The good thing is: there is a lot of start-ups in Paris, many of them with open positions. It's not that hard to find a place to work in Paris, it's hard for employers to find good ca

Oh, I misunderstood your statement. These companies pay 50-60k€ for people with 3-5 years experience.

42k gross a year (not uncommon for a junior from a good engineering school) => 2695 net a month before income tax. (12 month) Income tax for 32340€ (assuming you're single) => 3093€ a year net salary after tax: 2437€ CQFD.

Murex, eFront, Theodo, Smart AdServer, SAP, Streamroot, Klee Group … Basically all the companies I know someone in pays this kind of salary to people with 3 to 5 years of experience ! Are we really living in the same city ?

1. You are mostly right, but you are also exaggerating : in Poland you barely make half of what you get in Paris. (But the cost of living is also way inferior) 2. that's absolutely right, but working in Germany without speaking German

Paris has a lot of companies hiring, with a lot of variation in term of job quality or salaries, but it's usually a lot less than in the US. You can probably get between €40k* and €50k* a year for your first position after studies. Cos

Pro tip to escape this kind of situation : reply to the last email but spoof a fake email address as sender. Now, for everybody who's gonna use the last email to reply (your email then) your email address doesn't appear anywhere.

This article is not about micro-optimisations, it's about mesuring the cost of dynamic dispatch and virtual fonction call, which cannot be avoided in Go since there are no generics and the langage relies on interfaces instead.

Of course it's possible to do the same thing in C, but most likely not with «the same amount of code», nor with «memory safety». ;)
