He says it's a simple demo and not a proper game but I found it a lot of fun!

This is exactly what I thought when reading the article. One of the reasons I'm interested in start-ups is the idea of condensing my career so I can have more time to do the things…

In Denmark college is free or close to it, I don't think they've got massive debts to pay.

The argument here is about quality of life. I suspect the reason you mention income is that you believe it is nessecary to be able to do things outside of work. I personally earn m…

Yep! Started a new job on Monday with a fresh install of IE 6. I couldn't believe it, I'm now working at one of the companies where ie6 is forced upon all staff, even the web dev t…
