• Mithaldu commented on If there's a shortage of programmers, why aren't wages up?

  nrr just pointed this out to me: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5803800

  And seeing that i have to point out a massive mistake i see recruiters make all the time: Talk about the area, but not about the job. What perl versions are in use, what cpan modules are in use, what source repository, what ticket system, etc. etc. etc. For the linked job, if i'm thinking of the right company, they can't even use CPAN stuff due to CC requirements. That's a massive thing and as a job seeker i'd be very annoyed to find that out after …

• Ovid commented on If there's a shortage of programmers, why aren't wages up?

  Hi Mithaldu,

  The reason we post the information the way we do is because of my blog, Overseas Exile. I've been writing for years telling people how to be an expat and move abroad and the company my wife and I are creating is all about helping people do that (well, in addition to consulting and training :)

  The people who contact us really, really want to experience life abroad. They're generally strong technically and they know they can do the job, but either they're looking for a chance to see the world or, in some cases, the emplo…

• Mithaldu commented on If there's a shortage of programmers, why aren't wages up?

  Alright, that makes sense, your target demographics is people who actually do care more about the place.

  Another thing, i can likely add two more companies to those in Hannover, if you wish you can poke me anytime on IRC about them and i'll let you know what i got.

• dagolden.com commented on If there's a shortage of programmers, why aren't wages up?

  Ovid, what I was trying to highlight by saying "programmers aren't commodities" is that you missed making more of the distinction between "good" and "bad" (not that it's binary, either).

  Take wine as an analogy. Yes, there is aggregate supply and demand for wine that affects overall price levels. But there can be a glut of crap wine that depresses prices at the low end and yet a shortage of truly excellent wine that drives high-end prices to the stratosphere.

  I think that distinction explains a lot of why we hear both "there's a shortage" and "wages aren't rising".
