Valid point. Maybe rent is a control factor. Otherwise they'd just hang on forever.

No, it's based on foursquare and other location based app check ins.

Thoughtful of him.

If you have a good recruiter (the last one I worked with was such) they'll negotiate for you. This one asked me what I was looking for, said I could get more than that, and then go…

Holy god, that's a job in technology? Sounds like your typical retail wage slave situation here in the US. Even entry level tech jobs are in the $40-$50k range generally.

This is a good observation. All I can think of is that generally the impact of unconfirmed take over offers that might not happen is significantly less than missing earnings projec…

Yep, undergrad was in finance. Grad school was an MBA in entrepreneurship.

The job cycle is a lot shorter now than it used to be, and the landscape changes a lot faster. I'm in my 30's now, but have had to completely reinvent myself 3 times already (twice…

Make your own job man, if you did any freelance work then you were self employed. If you find yourself unemployed, hack on something in between interviews and call it a startup tha…

Ah, yeah definitely need something like angular then. Very cool sounding project.

So the first 2 years I was significantly underpaid with the digital agency we started really, where I was the only person doing front end and everyone else being a data scientist o…

Some really are. I know several who I wouldn't classify as all that skilled, but they hit the right check boxes, and they're making $160k-$350k a year a year or two out of college …

Done, sorry for the eye strain.

Honestly I don't tend to use angular with pure .net stuff. Razor and Linq handle all the templating for a single page app and data piping. Really all I'd add to the standard enviro…

Huh. Yep, all I did was use the asterixesses. Clearly the site was offended by my attempt at modesty.

There aren't nearly enough warm bodies everywhere else. But you need to figure out what the term warm body actually means in your area.

Well the quick answer is JavaScript is needed everywhere. I'd bone up on that, and learn angular inside and out as well as a couple of other JavaScript frameworks for good measure.…

So I'm self taught, no degree, and I get job offers and headhunters out of the blue from all over the central US. Denver, Kansas City, Omaha, Des Moines, Chicago, and small cities …

Looks like you may be right: http://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=13f9814f-b56e-... Still, most platforms have somekind of program like eBay's Vero service that is used to…

Yeah, seems like one of those law firms where companies hire them to handle the distasteful part of their obligation to defend their intellectual property. It sounds good, we'll do…
