Software engineers today are about 200-400% more productive than software engineers were 10 years ago because of open source software, better programming tools, common libraries, easier access to information, better education, and other factors. This means that one engineer today can do what 3-5 people did in 1999!
How does he go from the USBLS claiming 30% improvement in a decade in general to 200-400% improvement for software engineers? And what justification does he have for the reasons he ascribes that to?
