Re:What Is the Highest Salary Can a Programmer Make? by alistairSH on Friday March 10, 2017 @02:44PM (#13841458)
I took the post to mean $250k was the low end of the range for highly compensated programmers.

Something more like $150k or $180k is probably a more realistic mid-career average compensation (with salary somewhat less than that, in the USA).

Complicating the discussion is HN skews to the high end of the range. Not only is it very SV-centric, the type of programmers who post here appear to be atypical (high performing, entrepreneurial, etc).
