you're delusional. of course if you take the cheapest possible offshore workers you get terrible results when compared to an experienced engineer in a developed country.

but it's a bit like ikea: if you buy their cheapest stuff it will fall apart after a few months but their "expensive" lines are still far cheaper than the competition but the same quality.

you might think you're a solid mahogany table but at the end of the day you're probably the same table as being sold at ikea, just more expensive

GitHub copilot already replaces 50% of what offshore talent could do. Can’t imagine someone spinning up an offshore dev hut instead of buying more AI.
