I began writing C# in 2004. I've been writing it since for business and pleasure. Since Microsoft began adopting a more open source approach, it's been, well, amusing to see the op…

It's also incredible hyperbole. Makes it difficult to take anything else the author wrote seriously.

Sure the folks at inbox.com will be amused by their choice of product name.

More often than note prestige is something someone is born into rather than earned.

The developer salary costs seem really outlandish. 500k euro for a "top notch developer" and 250k euro for "supporting developers". Where are these estimates coming from?

Well written piece, kudos to the author. If we are uploading cheques and licenses, why not just have a form with the respective upload sections for each document. Sure, people migh…

While the actual case study makes for an interesting read -especially for someone who lives in Colorado - the numerous typo's, spelling errors and grammatical mistakes greatly take…

Wired ran a story last year on a Chinese team that did the same thing already: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/08/zhejiang-university-c...

Anyone have experience working at, or with, SpaceX that can shed some light on what it's like to work there?

The fact of the matter is that OP shouldn't have to deal with any of that. No matter how much an inconvenience, it's still an inconvenience.

Because it makes you a stooge if you don't reap the financial rewards of your labour.

Have your application periodically register with a registration service and monitor for excessive use. If you detect something, call up the customer and ask what's going on and pre…

Things like product release schedules are rarely in the hands of developers. More likely, a product manager and company dictate when new versions will get pushed out.

I've been using the product off and on for the past few months and overall have had a very positive experience. However, I think it would benefit from a more mature range of simula…

> "But even as a developer it’s full of headaches." is also just plain not true. OP's statement is a subjective assessment. It's neither true nor false.

I was amused by point "SF is a super fit city." As someone who lives in Boulder, CO and frequently visits SF, I feel like SF has a lot of out of shape people compared to Boulder. G…
