My salary progression in Paris:

- 2009: 35K - software engineer

- 2010: 37K - software engineer

- 2011: 39K - software engineer

- 2012: 41K - software engineer

- 2013: 47K - software engineer

- 2014: 50K - software engineer

- 2015: 55K - software engineer

- 2016/2017: 35K - unemployment system salary, while I was an entrepreneur

- 2018: 65K - senior software engineer

- 2019: ? (I'm now a manager)

-----

Some thoughts:

- my salary is very low compared to some mentioned in this thread, and yet I don't have the impression to be underpaid, in comparison to other engineers in Paris, and of course, in comparison to other French people. I'm the best paid among my Parisian friends (and probably among all those who where within my school class in high school, when I lived in a small French city, where 2000€/month is already great)
Of course, I could do a lot more but before this year I wasn't a manager. To earn more as a software engineer without leadership responsibilities, you have to be part of the bests. Not my case I think.

- I feel it's very hard to exceed 90/100K. I know a few VP at 120K/130K but it's an elite. It's even hard for them to find a job position.

- retrospectively, the tech job market in Paris was very depressing before 2011. No start-ups (so no equity), very few tech companies, low salaries. I've been hired at a low 35K, as almost all the fellows from my engineering school. Today, an engineer in Paris started at 40 and is at 50 in two years.

- sometimes, I regret that all my "VIE" contracts (a program that allows french people to go work in French companies abroad) collapsed in the month of January 2009, just after the beginning of the financial crisis...
But it would have been to work for the Societe Generale in New-York or for Safran in Houston, not for Google or Facebook. And I wouldn't have met my wife, so really no regrets.

- I also admit that in my first years in Paris, I was almost more in bars and movie theaters than in an office. Maybe it'd have been different if there was already a startup scene at this time.

- the start-up when I worked today tried often to hire foreign engineers. Everyone is generally very excited to come work in Paris, but has difficulties to get past the salary barrier. In these moments, I have to be the best advocate for the French health and unemployment system, which is great but, let's be honest, doesn't replace the crazy salaries I see on this thread. I like our system mostly because it helps my grand-mothers to live in a decent way, but if I was alone here, without a sense of solidarity, and without the desire to make my life here, I'd think it's a waste.

- in 2016-2017, I was an entrepreneur. It's been tough and it's been a failure (not a big failure, but still a failure). But thanks to the unemployment system, I was paid around 35K/year.
Here's a suggestion: _Allow each user to do only a certain amount of editing within a time period._ Of course there are technical difficulties with this, but if done right this would pretty much guarantee that edit farms and paid actors are much less useful. Wikipedia as a whole would probably be much more useful in the long run, since there are an absolutely massive long tail of experts in every conceivable field.
And that should be criminal.

I'm confused as to what it is that Apple Music does that Spotify doesnt? You say that Spotify is a middleman but never once comment that Apple Music is also by your own definition a middle man.

Also the title Middle Man has a sort of negative conotation to it. But Spotify/Apple Music is simply a platform that can connect a artist to a listener. But this doesnt make them any more of a middleman then Netflix or the guy at Mcdonalds who cooks your Cheeseburger.
This is probably because you learned this way. Old habits die hard.

And Apple's aim is to make more money off that more money. It's such an obviously, laughably stupid argument they're doing there.

Not taking sides with Apple or Spotify here. Both are interested in their margins far more than the benefits of their clients which is understandable.

However, it's strange how many devs are complaining about App Store considering that without it many/some of them wouldn't make a dime from their apps. Apple aggregated credit cards of people who don't shy away from using them and made sure that those people get value.
I think they do partly still retain that effect, but internet advertisers don't rate it so highly because it's hard to measure the effectiveness of.
With any luck Olympic medals will no longer be handed out based on who crosses the finish line first!

Sure luck plays a part, but to find fault with someones accomplishments because they are lucky? Very weak argument. People succeed due to luck, perseverance, and hard work. In some cases it is smart work.

Imagine no longer finding value in a person who has started and then sold a company. They have value and merit far above someone just out of school. Simple fact.
Let's preface this by saying I am aware that cause of the accident has not been determined. Seeing reports of experienced pilots being assigned to 737 MAXs without prior flight experience of this precise model, prompts me to make this comment.

As a passenger I expect pilots to fully know the plane they are flying and to previously have flown this exact type and model of aircraft in training sessions without any passengers whatsoever. 737 MAXs seem to have significant differences compared to other 737 models and airlines appear criminally negligent in the use of these aircraft.

I used to be a mere bus driver as a college job and I _had_ to train on all models before transporting any sort of organism with a central nervous system.

But apparently, flying hundreds of people at hundreds of mph at several thousand feet above the ground doesn't require this sort of familiarity with the machine. Having flown other 737s and skimming a manual 20mins before departure was often deemed sufficient, resulting in flabbergasted and overwhelmed pilots.

Boeing, FAA, airlines... whoever is ultimately blamed in all of this, the crash has revealed some scary stories in regards to aviation - all for the sake of cutting costs because people demand to fly across continents for $100.
> But I'm very confused how you're twisting Apple's huge contribution toward LLVM and Webkit over the years into some evil act.

I'm not twisting anything into an evil act, read my words more closely.

Some of Apple's contributions to open source have been beneficial to the rest of us, because there are competitors to keep them in check in those areas they chose to do open source in.

You should have no doubt that, had those other competitors not existed, Apple's open source contributions would have been used to push a monopolistic advantage over other projects and organisations, and passed it off as "meeting their business needs".

They do not do open source out of any principle of generosity or co-operation with other projects, and much of their ecosystem is legally and technically hostile to supporting FOSS the "proper way". For example it is impossible to properly supply a GPL binary on an iPhone because in general you do not have the ability to install arbitrarily-modified versions of it, a very fundamental principle of the standard definition of Free Open Source Software.

Also I'm not sure why you cite Android vs iPhone since near-everything about an iPhone is proprietary.
True that. I agree with you. I overstated.

There's credit card costs etc associated with that as well. Doubt it's $3/user per month though and the distribution costs are minimal (only downloads of app updates) compared to the streaming costs (which could be multiple GBs every month).
Disclaimer: I made some passive money selling software and I've been damaged by piracy (so much that I had to stop selling).
I was lucky enough to be my own publisher, though.

I still think that piracy should be legal, while breaking a contract and redistributing should be punished. This shouldn't happen automatically (like the copyright infringement letters in Germany) or handled by taxes (like the hard disk tax in some European countries), it needs to be handled in court, as a breach of contract.
The fact that this is not the default and that your government/ISP is selling your data so easily, really points out how this is just lobbying from the media corporations and the umpteenth case of corruption of the government.

What if justice is too slow? Complain about your inefficient public courts and push for a private, faster system.

If you look at this from a wider perspective, people able to make money passively work once and gains for months or years to come.
It depends on the type of good you're producing - but it can be wildly profitable or put you on a diet.

Given you're profiting from selling one thing to many, it should be your problem enforcing and/or suing people sharing your work.
You have one-to-many benefits, you get one-to-many costs.

Will piracy kill some content and push the market in a different direction?
Most likely, but that's what people want.
You can see it in software with SaaS, in movies with Netflix, in music with Spotify.

I know it sucks to be in the spot of penniless painters, but it's how society evolved.
You need to evolve yourself.

"Fire and motion", probably, as in https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2002/01/06/fire-and-motion/

'In infantry battles, he told us, there is only one strategy: Fire and Motion. You move towards the enemy while firing your weapon. The firing forces him to keep his head down so he can’t fire at you. (That’s what the soldiers mean when they shout “cover me.” It means, “fire at our enemy so he has to duck and can’t fire at me while I run across this street, here.” It works.) The motion allows you to conquer territory and get closer to your enemy, where your shots are much more likely to hit their target. If you’re not moving, the enemy gets to decide what happens, which is not a good thing. If you’re not firing, the enemy will fire at you, pinning you down.'

And

"U.S. regulators are mandating that Boeing upgrade the plane’s software by April"

is unclear.

Back in 2016 it seems that the pilots union felt the MAX was a different plane:

There's a long tail, but my understanding is that there's a core wikipedia contributor community who contribute a staggering number of edits[1]. If wikipedia limited the number of edits that each user could do, they would anger their core community. It would be similar to youtube putting a limit on the number of views each video was allowed to get. It would be suicide via the destruction of their tribe.

And I don't even know if it would work that well. Per-IP edit limits would only stop PR companies with deep pockets for so long. They would do what the russians do, and just make account farms.

[1] Or so I've been told. I'd love to see actual stats on this. It probably follows a Pareto distribution; but with what power? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_distribution
> There is massive competition to the garden itself.

I did already acknowledge that and pointing out why it doesn't work in practice.

In a normal high street setting manufacturers and distributors set their prices and the shops then add their mark up on time. If the prices are too high then consumers will shop in another local store. Which means those stores either have to negotiate a lower selling price or reduce their own margins (or offer an alternative incentive to shop there in spite of the high prices - like free coffee)

With iOS consumers don't have the option of going to another App Store, which then flips the order of control. It means Apple can dictate their markup and app developers are then forced to lower their own margins if they want to appear attractive to other shoppers.

Probably, but I wasn't in his shoes. I mean the guy was not the father, came in after the kid had grown some, was with a mother who did not say Damien don't take knives out of the drawer without asking but just laughed about it, and I expect was also from a somewhat disciplinarian background himself.

So, he was probably wrong in how he handled it, but it was quite heartfelt what he said, he was handling it as well as he could, and perhaps that was badly. It was hard for me to second guess him under the circumstance.
> and as such the product is less private than WhatsApp

Given that 1. it's owned by FB and 2. FB's plan is to move towards FB/Messenger/WhatsApp/Instagram grand messaging unification (in spite of them promising they would not) we can reasonably assume they won't keep E2E for long (because chat in the browser). Also, it's FB. Even if it's E2E, FB control the apps at both 'E's and I would not trust them with anything privacy related.

Education is a lagging effect. What you put into the public school system today will take 50+ years to feed through to the pensioners with higher voter turnout.

People have great difficulty operating in low-trust environments. It takes a lot of work and is mentally draining to check everything, to distrust your co-workers and family and correct them when they start talking about the flat earth.

In Austria, the upper end for senior developers seems to be 70k. Architect roles seem to range from 70k to somewhere below 100k...

Even big companies often have a fixed upper limit, like "we can't give him more than 65k" and they rather wait many months until they find a good one who will work for that money or rather hire "IT consultants" from Accenture/CapGemini etc. that cost more than twice as much. It's kind of sad.
Thanks a lot! These are really good tips.
That's a decent attempt at suppressing OP's message, but the thing which makes all of the above irrelevant is that C and C++ developers are the main groups of developers Rust is targeting.

If they can't use the language, the Rust community should perhaps listen to them. Or should have listened to them 10 years ago, because let's be frank: the friction is coming from the fact that Rust can't be changed any more so that it becomes as ergonomic as other languages people are used to. It's also moved heavily in the direction of some FP concepts which have zero overlap with C and arguably little to do with C++.

The big assumption Rust is based on is that people will recognise the benefits of memory safety and be willing to pay the price for it. Many outside the early adopter group won't be, that's how the mainstream works.
Thanks a lot for the tip. Guess I'll have to try it that way and see.
