Reading many of them give me a “we want a $300k developer for $50k a year” vibe. Not even worth applying for.

Even outside of HN, there seems to be a large amount of downward pressure on tech salaries. Like even higher level staff/principal developer positions under $150k.
A few years ago, working remotely outside the hot zones meant you'd probably split the difference between the hot zone and where the dev was... now it's like not even a thought or an argument.
