&quot;At the time of this writing, yearly salaries of $100,000 per year for a junior developer (with around 1 year of experience or right out of college) are common.&quot;<p>Good luck living in SF with that.<p>&quot;If you overhear a discussion in a restaurant, it’s very likely it’ll be about software or a software company.&quot;<p>This is actually the main reason I&#x27;m so glad I don&#x27;t work in SF.  Seriously, how boring is it to walk into developers everywhere?
