> Some engineers at Google must be paid rough $500/hour and more
You reckon? I doubt that engineers are making ~$1m/yr...
But I agree, that the time spent by someone discovering a bug is worth well over $500. Let say you spend 3-4 evenings playing with it and you find something. that roughly translates into 2 full days of work. Assuming $500-700/day figure (which might actually represent a significant amount of engineers at Google) they should be paying at least $1-1.5k per bug. But even that is on a cheap side I think...
