Re:Ask YC: What would the salary range be for programmers? by timr on Saturday September 29, 2007 @08:14PM (#61160)
You're begging the original question. Sure, your market value might be higher than you expect -- but it might be lower, too. Are you willing to walk away from a good job for a potentially unreasonable expectation of higher salary?

The OP wanted to know the salary range for a programmer in San Francisco. I guess I don't see relativism ("it's as high as you want it to be") as a particularly helpful response.

Hmm... I was feeling pensive today, so I probably got too creative and derailed the thread. I apologize :)

I'd make it up by giving a helpful response, but I don't live in San Fran. I hope he finds the answer though!
