    Why did this post disappear so quickly from the front page? It's very on-topic, and used to be HN's sweet spot.

    I'm not the author, I'm just curious what people think of this approach. Does it sound reasonable?

    Cheating a bit since I didn't read the article, but having been in and out of that world for a number of years, there were always certain types of clients who didn't want to hire a…

    From a different perspective, has anyone ever taken the time to read local health department restaurant inspection reports (if available)? I assume most people here eat at restaura…

    And yet I see a lot of job ads listing MongoDB. If I went into an interview and asked why they chose a document-oriented database, and that one in particular, think I'd be popular?…

    Have you tried any of the freelance sites (oDesk, Elance, Guru, etc.)? My two concerns would be the rate and the amount of time it takes to become somewhat established on these sit…

    Walmarts and hospitals--I'm going to file this new information away, just in case (you never know where life will take you).

    Don't let anybody discourage you--that's most important. Just do stuff. It isn't hard to find examples of young millionaires and billionaires in this industry.
