Never worked on offshoring projects? That is exactly what the sweatshop coders do.

No we don't.

For one, I never saw a "full spec" (if such a thing even exists) back in my days of making 8k. Annually.

I think that the current AI tooling is a much bigger threat to offshore sweatshops than to domestic programmers.

Why deal with language barriers, time shifts, etc. when a small team of good developers can be so much more productive, allegedly?
