what's interesting to see in the US data is that Ageism seems to exist. the most experienced person gets paid less.

Also it's interesting to note that every UX requirement these days asks for substantial coding experience (on top of everything else non-code related) yet the salaries are at par with a junior coder.

$90,000 is "at par with a junior coder"??? Maybe today, in San Francisco.

At my first dev job in LA, in the mid-2000s, I was making $57,000.

That's not evidence of age-ism. Years of experience != talent/quality of work.
