Okay, I'll bite - why does this matter?

Agreed. I understand there's a hacker mentality here, but who would really pass up the CEO at an established behemoth like Yahoo to take the reigns of an unproven (or found) startu…

Agree with you there. Replace "programming" with "management", and you discover the biggest pain point in the majority of our lives.

As a consultant looking to make the jump, this spoke volumes to me and I think it's just the push I need to make the jump.

I don't really understand your copy at all. "Access the Power of Computing with friendly user interface in a few minutes!" What does this even mean? "Cut your costs by up to 70%! N…

Why the hate on Craigslist? It's their information, and are free to do what they want with it - most likely, develop their own platform.

It's most likely an indication that they'll be developing their own UI.

Just an FYI, I find the copy on your homepage to be a /bit/ confusing: "We hire the best software developers in our community who are bored in their current jobs. We put them to wo…

And here I was playing with Legos as a tot.

You really think it's feasible for a 2 year old to have an idea how a transistor works when all they want to do is watch videos of kitties and puppies on YouTube?

Do searches on github count?

Exactly what I would have done. DC'ed and headed for the closest bunker.

Even if they don't tag you (as in, it showing up publicly), FB can still store whether or not you're there.

Yeah, right. I wish.

I couldn't think of any scenario - unless there was something profoundly personal/family oriented going on - where someone in his position would leave before they have vested.

"Getting in over your head" is brilliant advice. I've spent the past six months working on developing my programming abilities. A few weeks in, I spent a few hours on learning basi…

Agreed. I want to work with a team where I'm motivated intrisically to do so; not because I know if I don't hit number X or Y I'm going to be terminated immediately. This may work …

Do I know for sure? No. Currently though, it looks like what I'd be most interested in. I chased the money after graduating, and it hasn't worked out the way I wanted it too - hone…

Again, thanks. Definitely something to think about. I very much to have the capacity to 'buckle down' and do something that isn't my number one priority, if it has the potential to…

Thanks for the advice. Again - worth waiting for the position I want (potentially a long shot) or getting my foot in the door (and potentially transferring)?

Obviously my goal - however, should I wait and prepare for the APM or go for the Tech. Associate role and try to transfer after some time?

Thanks. It's seriously comforting to know others are in the same boat as me. I do have side projects on (and other, non-tech related interests) that keep me going regardless. Life …

Hey everyone, at a point where I'm really not sure what to do with myself so I'd like some advice. I'm 22, a year out of college, been working for a (very) large tech consulting fi…

Hey schedule buddy. Basically, make a list of everything you're reading and working on. Then prioritize. Then block things off when you're most productive. For me, it's reading in …
