This guy's an outsourcing company.. of course he's going to look for cheaper talent in other continents. He also has little understanding or appreciation of quality of code and scalability, because he really doesn't have to worry about it. He's building Facebook apps that probably aren't vey complicated.

The salary of software developers in Canada is also substantially lower than the US. A $70k developer salary in Canada is approximate to a $90-100k salary in New York, Silicon Valley.

Not sure what the purpose of that article was, since a lot of us are building tech companies, not outsourcing agencies.. I guess this is why I don't read techvibes.

Your implication is that the quality of code from foreign developers is worse? Or that their code scales worse? That seems at best presumptuous and at worst racist.

No. read what I wrote -- "cheaper talent" is worse.
