[quote=eyePod]You can get under $30/hr (for 1000s of hours) for high end Software, Firmware, and Hardware engineers. So yes, it is out there at those rates in India if you look for it. Not that it has anything to do with the dopey recruiter, but someone mentioned India.[/quote]
Ironic quote from a deprecated display name.
Partially true. There are many parts of tech that have become trivial and well known. Patterns have developed and it’s not as hard to do what was once complicated. However, the “high end” is already beyond that. They are not replicating solutions, but instead, devising and innovating on the cutting edge, which there will always be…in firmware, hardware and software.

P.S. I was once a renter and so upset at a landlord that, after asking me what I did for a living, told me he thought all those jobs where going to be outsourced to India. And he was a lawyer…we really need more of those innovators in our lives!
