Heh I read that as "as someone who pays developers, I am much more interested in the low end, or at least believing that most developers are that cheap"
Maybe I should have been specific and said that I am a developer who is now the founder. I pay well above average, but I hire people who earn it.
Still, as the company grows, there will be a need for more junior developers. In our market (Nashville, TN) many senior developers still make less than $100k while some make $60k fresh out of school. As I look at how the poll numbers play out, I suspect that is true for most markets and not just mine. That is why I say the range is too big.
That's not a fair reinterpretation. The parent hires for positions that pay <$100k. It's fair that he/she would be more interested for fine degrees of scale at the general range the company hires for.
