- noonespecial 17y agoYou keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. -Inigo Montoya
- klaut 17y agoI think he thinks that it means secretary :)
- rayval 17y agoYes, the ad reads like it's a geek looking for some kind of blend between software lackey, secretary, and (depending on gender/preference) a possible date.
- koevet 17y agoThey are looking for the ultimate speech recognition human-ware.
- friendstock 17y ago"Our compensation reflects the importance of this position." $20 per hour??
- smanek 17y agoIt might not be a terrible deal ... There are programmers I would have paid to watch work when I was starting out. There are still people I'd work for for free, if I got to observe them first-hand and listen to their thought process. It all just depends on how good the 'senior programmer' is
- IgorPartola 17y agoYea, but read the rest of the post: "May involve work after normal business hours and being on-call" + "This is a part-time position for 15 - 20 hours per week". What kind of a work schedule is this Senior Programmer on?
- cracki 17y agoa healthy one.
- IgorPartola 17y agoI sometimes wonder how I would program if I went blind. I guess this could be one answer to such a question.

- shabble 17y agoThere's a guy who hangs on on freenode/#emacs sometimes called delYsid who uses a braille terminal There's some info on his webpage at http://delysid.org/faq.html http://delysid.org/faq.html
- JimBastard 17y agoI am the only one that doesn't see anything wrong with this? Did I miss something?
- ramchip 17y agoCompare: The Pair Programmer is critical since the Senior Programmer aims to limit his use of the keyboard. Alex is a Doctoral Fellow and PhD student in the Operations and Information Management Department of Wharton Business School, slated to graduate in May 2010. He studies optimal team design in medicine, engineering, and consulting. I'm not convinced the optimal team is a typist/secretary and a Senior Programmer with his capitals letters and Ph.D. and everything dictating the code ;)
