Comment Comment by ChuckNorris89 Yeah sure, if you build a simple website/app for a mom&pop shop then yes, but the pay is equally poor and it's a race to the bottom.Even in old cobol codebases coders are still needed to keep up with the changing environment.The big money in SW is always made in apps and services that are scalable, and that needs constanrt engineering effort.SW apps that aren't scalable, are a race to the bottom with low margins and low pay that has been offshored or replaced by the services of SW giants. parent ChuckNorris89 3 years ago
