- smanek 17y agoIf so, I misinterpreted it. My impression was that: 1) Zackattack doubts that the labor market is good for LAMP hackers, and puts out feelers suggesting that he is looking for work in the field (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=614130 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=614130) 2) Tptacek says that he has had the opposite experience and that it's hard to find good hackers (i.e., the market is good for a hacker). He suggests that the market's supply is outpaced by demand and that he is having trouble hiring a good HTML/CSS hacker (the statement might be ambiguous, but since he says his usual sources are 'booked up' it seems pretty clear that he looking to hire a hacker). http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=614135 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=614135 3) Zackattack responds that he is a HTML/CSS hacker, and might be a good fit for Tptacek's project (i.e., Zackattack is trying to solicit business). He leaves the email address Zackster@gmail.com (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=614143 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=614143) Did you have a different interpretation?
