    Absolutely. But most of the people in the industry refuses to acknowledge the truth and would rather whine. In some cases they deride software engineering as “easier short term gains” which is completely false. At least in this case supply and demand seem to be working. At some point they’ll have to pay more or no one will invest in a career in an exploitative field.

      The whining is strategic. Never let a emergency go to waste. So you want to lower your labor costs in the future if you can. By complaining about an emergency today.
