i meant that - is that true that in America there are more risky, romantic hackers that would be happy to work for a promising startup for nothing, than in Europe, where too much people want to be full time employees?
without any critics, just wondering.
- zeemonkee 16y agoI suspect most Americans have annoying personal requirements like bills and mortgages to pay same as Europeans. College students don't have these overheads, but they don't have experience either - so coding for next to nothing is a good exchange for experience and resume padding. However, if you're an experienced developer and you work for nothing without a huge chunk of equity or ownership in the business then you're a fool. Look up some of the job offers on Craigslist - you'll be very much in demand.
