The only reason to hire the majority of that IT "talent" was the cheaper rates, not some outstanding brilliant achievments or skills. I think the guy is lobbying the interests of t…

I think in a typical firm very few people would refuse to give their passwords... most of us would give it with a "sure, no problems, you are welcome" smile :)

Mate, "liberal arts" is not a subject, trust me, you do have liberal arts in India :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_arts edit:link added

I second that. Never do unknown amount of work for a fixed amount of money. Forget about "good guys" and "friends". You either charge them per hour or (if fixed job) control the co…

The article is NOT accurate. I am a happy owner of Dell laptop with Vista - and the guy insulted those two things :) Seriously, I think its a matter of personal preferences.I am us…

1. FAR manager (this one tops them all, can do also SSH/FTP stuff, text editing, archiving etc) 2. Notepad++ 3. Firefox 4. skype 5. eclipse 6. the bat 7. adobe photoshop

Nowadays a good developer on a contract can earn more than his full-time manager. And less stress, and less responsibilities, and also different projects and different people. Yes,…

I think that the reason in "Users were very aggressive in reducing their user counts, and our average selling price became very small - less than $10/month" is that I think their a…

It’s not about Java. If there were no consultancies to hire, the management would not be able to hide its incompetency and immature, stupid and strategically wrong decisions on man…

The article is a bit ..... naive?? :)

I think when they are telling you a story, even a boring and a stupid one it's okay, but the problem with Es is that very often you have to listen to their "mental" process, how id…

How about joining that startup?

I am not sure buddy, but it would be nice to see how it fits or replaces(?) the traditional approach from a high level perspective :)

Nihao! Good application, however I would like to see more instruction/tutorial how it works, since it's asking me to draw, but I am not sure what to draw, since I don't know that s…

I reckon people who buy SUN hardware will never-ever run their app on GAE for too many reason. I do agree however there is nothing wrong in omitting core classes, I think SUN start…

I don't think it's a "loss". Every new account is an asset for them, and they paid 5 dollars to "buy" accounts without actually giving cash to account owners (as you mentioned). Ho…
