We are getting there - with 4,33 weeks a month that's $866 a month in AI costs. You may get a programmer for that in some offshore countries
The vetting for those offshore programmers ain't worth it tbh.
How many will you go through till you get a competent one? I worked at a company with an office in India and... Maybe 20% of the staff there were gifted and hardworking, 80% were a net detriment to the product we were building.
The office was closed. I hope they kept on the people who were actually good as remote employees but I have no idea.
