That's the main problem of profusion : it gives the wrong impression that things are getting cheap, if not free, and are endlessly available.

Well, congratulations ... by the way, when will you publish your article, and source code here ?
cheers, Bill

Some rooms have a shower?
For cats? O....kay.
WiFi? That makes sense, several of our cats have insisted on access to the internet (some even had their own CP logins) and all cats can type fluently. Not unfortunately in English, but they are definitely touch typists. You may not want to touch the keys yourself after they have touch typed, but there you go...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Depends what they touched them with.

It's the "on" bit, really. I've smelled what goes out of that end when I clean his litter tray...

Went to an "IT Expo" today. Stopped at a booth where they said they provide programming services. Had a sign that said "Senior Programmers: $14.99 an hour". Guy looked at me and said "you look like you have a question". I told him I wondered how the Hades he found senior programmers who would work for $15 an hour. Then I saw the sign that said outsource. Maybe Bob in Elbonia.

Many businesses make decisions based on quarter-to-quarter profits, so...  That ground-up rebuild further down the road doesn't matter.

TheGreatAndPowerfulOzYou get what you pay for.
That's why when I buy stuff - like our car, camera, TV, etc. I always buy it from the most expensive vendor. I just know deep inside that paying those extra dollars will add to the purchase in subtle but glorious ways!

Thankfully, no! Yes, sometimes one does overpay.

It might be even worse. If they're charging $15/hour, that means the actual "senior" dev is making a fraction of that. (About a third, based on the last fraction I heard)
