I hope you weren't referring to me given that I wasn't even replying to you (clearly obvious from the branching of the reply). My response originally stem from this comment:
"In past discussions on HN, it has been pointed out that salaries aren't directly related to local cost of living. "
If anything, the argument was in support of the original statement you made here:
"This totally depends on location". I have no clue where you got the idea I was putting words into your mouth when the argument I was presenting was in support of your very first sentence.
