Except the league minimum for an MLB player is quite high, and has been going up. Why is the starting salary for highly recruited devs relatively flat?

I'm pretty sure the starting salary for the types of people PG is describing here is "whatever I want".

He refers to "open positions for programmers at high tech companies", so I would have to disagree

Agreed; I like where I work, but it would be hard for me to turn down 2x what I'm currently making at just about any company. I suspect that is true for most people.
