Айтишный опыт очень нелинейно конвертируется в деньги. Если у вас 3-5 лет опыта, и вы занимались развитием своих навыков, то можете получать зарплату мидла, пусть это будет X денег. За 10 лет опыта при продолжающемся развитии вы становитесь сеньором (кто-то быстрее, кто-то дольше), и тогда вы получаете 1.5X денег, ну может 1.75X, при очень большом везении 2X денег. Но если у вас 15-20 лет опыта, вам 2X+ никто не даст, и уж тем более 2.5-3X. Бывают отдельные случаи, когда какой-нибудь Бобук с офигенно раскрученным личным брендом получает миллионы (и то, на порнухе и казино), но глобально ситуация по рынку понятная.
Получается, что после 10 лет опыта вы уже как бы достигли своей финансовой вершины в айти. Можно сместиться в руководство, но, во-первых, не каждому хочется, а, во-вторых, это требует иных навыков, которые тоже не у каждого есть. Да и не будет руководящих должностей на всех.
А как там с другими профессиями? У некоторых профессий есть категории, разряды или формальные уровни квалификации, которые влияют на зарплату. Если вы сварщик шестого разряда или учитель высшей категории, то один этот факт будет добавлять к зарплате некоторый процент. Очень понятный путь прокачки. Но всё равно, когда упёрся в левел-кап, дальше уже роста не будет.
А есть ли за что платить? Будет ли строитель с 20-летним опытом сильно больше уметь, чем строитель с 10-летним? Интуитивно кажется, что да, потому что 10 лет это типа 3-4 больших объекта, довольно мало. Уж точно 6-8 больших объектов звучат сильно солиднее. Видимо, зависит всё-таки от формата и сложности работы. У врачей, кажется, вообще никогда нельзя упереться в предел опыта. И по ощущениям тоже врач с 20 годами должен получать больше, чем с 10 (если в комментах есть врачи, расскажите, так ли это).
Но в айти престарелые (по меркам айти) сеньоры сидят и тухнут. Я так BG3 бросил в середине третьего акта, потому что прокачка остановилась. К счастью, опыт в работе у меня складывался более интересный: сначала я пять лет пилил свои проекты с разной степенью успеха, потом пять лет был фрилансером, а теперь вот пять лет в энтерпрайзе. Точно есть, куда расти, и по навыкам и по деньгам. Существует ли ещё какая-то форма занятости? Свой айтишный бизнес, пожалуй, но тут уж совсем особые умения нужны.

China has responded to Trump's actions with reciprocal #tariffs, maintaining the current exemptions while stating that new tariffs will not be waived.

15% on chicken, wheat, corn, and cotton;

Thrilled to share a monumental milestone in our global trade evolution! 🚀
On April 3, exactly one year after our visionary announcement, President Donald Trump officially signed decrees to launch a transformative new chapter for medicines and metals. This strategic initiative is perfectly aligned with our core mission to empower American innovation and drive sustainable growth. 🇺🇸✨
We are excited to introduce a dynamic 15% duty on medicines from EU partners, with a robust 100% framework for nations outside our trade ecosystem, fostering a powerful incentive for international pharmaceutical leaders to relocate their production hubs to the United States. 💊🏭 Furthermore, starting next Monday, April 6, we are rolling out a high-impact 25% tariff on finished metal goods rich in steel, aluminum, and copper. This bold move is designed to supercharge the construction and automotive sectors, creating unprecedented opportunities for industry leaders. 🏗🚗
This strategic pivot not only optimizes government revenue streams but also reaffirms our unwavering commitment to economic sovereignty, building upon our trade policy legacy even as we navigate the Supreme Court's earlier rulings with agility and foresight. We are incredibly grateful for this chance to reshape the future of commerce together! 🤝📈

The first company sued the US government over Trump's tariffs.
The tariff war is escalating: after the crushing defeat of Donald Trump and his customs policy in the US Supreme Court, the logistics giant FedEx is now attacking the government. ⚖️
The concern demands the return of the customs fees paid and applies to the court for this.
This is the first lawsuit filed by a large American company after the Supreme Court's decision.
FedEx may be just the beginning of a wave of lawsuits, as on Friday the highest court in Washington officially declared the duties imposed by President Donald Trump illegal. 📉

US businesses and consumers paid about 90% of the cost of President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs last year — contradicting his repeated claims that foreign countries were footing the bill, according to a new study from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
In the first eight months of 2025, 94% of the cost of tariffs was borne by American businesses and consumers, study found.
In September and October, that share slipped to 92%, and in November it fell further to 86% as foreign exporters picked up a larger share of the costs, according to the report.

Trump's duties are almost entirely paid for by Americans
Almost all the costs of American duties fall on the residents of the United States themselves, and not on foreign manufacturers. This is the conclusion reached by the Kiel Institute of World Economy, having studied about $4 trillion of supplies from the beginning of 2024 to the end of 2025 — WSJ.
According to the researchers' calculations, foreign exporters reduced prices by only 4% and took on the minimum part of the burden. The remaining 96% was paid by American importers and buyers. In fact, duties work as a tax on consumption within the United States, and not as a tool of pressure on foreign businesses.
In 2025, the United States received about $200 billion from duties. The Americans paid almost the entire amount. At first, buyers felt only a part of the price increase - about 20%. The rest of the expenses were temporarily paid by the companies themselves. Later, these costs will be shifted to the buyers, the researchers say.

Taxes, duties, and military bases. How Europe Can Respond to Donald Trump
Donald Trump's talk about taking control of Greenland has Europe thinking about how to push back. BILD is throwing out a bunch of ideas, from economic to military, that could put pressure on the Trump administration.
One idea is to go after American tech companies. In Germany, they're talking about a 10% digital tax for companies like Google, Meta, Amazon, Apple, and Microsoft, which make billions in Europe but don't pay much in taxes.
Trade is another option. The EU could either block a new trade deal with the U.S. or slap tariffs on up to 93 billion euros worth of American goods, like bourbon, soybeans, and airplane parts. They're also talking about taxing digital services like cloud storage, streaming, and online ads.
Western countries could even start selling off U.S. government bonds, but experts don't think it'll do much. The U.S. Federal Reserve can just buy them back.
The most extreme idea is to close American military bases in Europe, like Ramstein and Stuttgart. Shutting these down would really hurt the U.S.'s global strategy, but Europe thinks it's too risky, especially with threats on NATO's eastern border.
