Ask HN: Wage fixing. Any updates from the trenches?

I don't work for Apple or Google, but I can assure you that there is strong upward pressures on salaries for developers in the bay area. Housing prices are a bit more complicated.

I've also had personal experience with people relocating from Denver and having a _very_ hard time dealing with local house prices. Please investigate carefully using Trulia, Zillow, or Craigslist.

Thanks :). We are looking at all three sources.

I did that 2 years ago (Golden to bay area). I ended up living 1 to 1.5 hours from work.

I wonder if allowing a government agency to grant exceptions to anti-trust laws would be a good idea.
