Is it really? Compared to the work programmers do & how much they earn all across the world, excluding FAANG companies & others multinationals like Uber, Lyft, SalesForce etc which is like 0.5% of total population of people who code.

I honestly believe the rest of the world are earning averagely to be honest. If you factor in the millions on Freelancer, Upwork, FIverr etc working for less pay to support their families.
r u implying the market forces on these freelancing site makes programmers earn low ??

NO, i am making a point that even though Tech is booming now, it may not be like Oil yet. We have so many jobs available but many are still pegged at employees receiving lower wages.

Yea.
If you investigate, most members on NL between 2005 to 2008 are rich kids or exposed big guys and ladies, and most of them are already over 30 yrs by now. So if you're on NL between 2005 to 2008 and not yet 30yrs. Then, definitely you must have had exposure early enough. That was my calculations.
True that


Now that internet is ubiquitous in Nigeria
You see retarded comments everywhere

when trump allegedly called African countries "shitholes" you didn't say anything..
when a video of former U.S presidential candidate m:icheal b:loomberg calling black people lazy you didn't say anything..
when news of former U.S presidential candidate m:icheal b:loomberg saying police should search black people more you didn't say anything.

you're right achievement has no monopoly..

why is it paining you when someone praises people of his own ethnicity?
Why should I complain about what other people say about us when we ourselves are saying rubbish about ourselves. When Trump talks...he generalizes. Nobody give a hoot if u are Yoruba or Igbo They call you an african. So? What's your point? You didn't praise your tribe to "praise" them but to spite other tribes. It is written in the comment I quoted earlier.
