Title: I am seeing YC startups hiring for supposedly in-demand roles (e.g. Senior TypeScript, Senior ML) and offering 50-80k$&#x2F;year.<p>This sounds very low to me, even if those are fully remote positions. As far as I know, this salary wouldn&#x27;t attract strong talent even in medium cost-of-living countries (like Portugal&#x2F;Spain).<p>Anyone has more insights around this decision? For example:
- Are they targeting extremely low-cost of living countries? Have they seen more success with that strategy? 
- Will globalisation finally equalize developer salaries across the globe?
- Do they offer something else which is unusually attractive?<p>Intrigued to learn more.
