#22All this is missing is an experience requirement for longer than some technology has existed.
Those ones really crack me up. Its the first filter of the clowns that have no idea what they're talking about. The other glaring one that normally gets/got me back in the day that Java == JavaScript to all agencies.

#23Once again, we see the terrible effects of there being not enough technical talent here in the United States. As we are constantly told by the VCs and large tech firms, we need to open up the green card immigration program to allow developers in who will do the jobs that Americans just won't do.

I get you're being sarcastic, but I've heard that immigration doesn't actually have an deliberate effect on wages.
The H1B that is mostly talked about when it comes to IT jobs and imimgration requires companies to pay at least the prevailing wage for the area in question.
So on average, it should either have wages stay the same OR raise them a tiny bit

#25Personally, I'm learning to code in Python, and once I do will probably work for $3 per hour doing remote work via a freelancing site. At the moment I'm going through Flask— which shouldn't take more than a couple of days to grok at a basic level. I made a CRUD site a few years ago, so it's not like I'm starting for zero.
Anyway, working for below minimum wage is economically rational. Once I have more experience I'll command more money, or create products for myself.

Same shit different country (Ireland)... this is very much an international problem, and the reason why software is a good career choice IMO.

I do agree with you, but to be fair, this is only a single post, likely from some company that either has no idea what they're doing or is deliberately interested in exploiting someone in desperate need of a job.

If you look at their web sites, they're clearly used to crappy developers so they'll think this is the norm.

#30I like how it's a Magento site but knowing Magento isn't required however knowing Scheme is.
