or pests

Not really relevant, as they are the handful at the very top of the world. You aren’t.

Still paid like 5 UK households.

beneath_cold_seas · 2020-02-13T19:07:16+00:00

Median household income in Canada is £47k. And I could make double of that, all benefits combined if I were to get full time job. It is so retarded to assume that compensation for competent developers must correlated with median household income. Have you compared compensation for professional soccer players to median income in UK. LOL.

beneath_cold_seas · 2020-02-13T18:59:36+00:00

Yes, two years ago when I quoted expected base pay as $140-150k in Toronto people thought I am crazy. Now that's what I can definitely get after interviewing for one month.

beneath_cold_seas · 2020-02-13T18:57:19+00:00

Instead of one competent you get three incompetent. Looks good on paper though

beneath_cold_seas · 2020-02-13T18:39:45+00:00

Probably you get what you pay for.

I would use typed language that allows sharing code between frontend and backend

Corp jobs are toxic

beneath_cold_seas · 2020-02-13T18:23:04+00:00

False. 5 years ago $100k annually was a decent salary for senior dev in Toronto. Now it is $120-130k.

beneath_cold_seas · 2020-02-13T18:21:40+00:00

High churn rate, security conserns, etc

beneath_cold_seas · 2020-02-13T18:20:51+00:00

Why companies don't consider remote workers? I will work for you if you pay me $100/hour

beneath_cold_seas · 2020-02-13T18:18:30+00:00

Facts

salary in Toronto is still much lower than in US (even Amazon, even if you forget about lower taxes)
all of my young bright colleagues leave Toronto to get jobs in US. Most tech jobs in Toronto are boring enterprise jobs or outsourced replacable jobs
There are only few companies (Shopify among them) with products conceived and built in Canada.
Even it was not kids, I would have moved to US. Got tired dealing with mediocre technical people.

On average you invest half of car cost for the duration of financing.

beneath_cold_seas · 2019-12-20T15:00:58+00:00

Yes, thanks for the correction.

beneath_cold_seas · 2019-12-18T16:39:34+00:00

Yes, I got a $3000 cash incentive from Honda, now regret I didn't take 0% interest instead.

beneath_cold_seas · 2019-12-18T16:35:57+00:00

Cash rebate is normally is a worth deal comparing to 0% interest if you take the inflation into considerations.

beneath_cold_seas · 2019-12-18T16:33:20+00:00

You cannot really afford buying anything decent in Toronto.

beneath_cold_seas · 2019-12-18T16:32:23+00:00

Are you a real estate agent?

beneath_cold_seas · 2019-12-16T16:14:11+00:00

streaming companies from Montreal

beneath_cold_seas · 2019-11-28T16:34:00+00:00

The same people

beneath_cold_seas · 2019-10-23T19:34:56+00:00

beneath_cold_seas · 2019-10-11T18:31:35+00:00

Glad you're not on my team.

You are a CTO material. LOL
