Sure people would contact me for their tiny little start-ups, but I'd eventually catch on that they just want to use me to implement their ideas. Their ideas were horrendously lame. I swear if someone says they're starting a social network I'm gonna beat them with the heal of my shoe. I wonder if it had ever occurred to Zed that most software jobs involve getting paid to implement other people's horrendously lame ideas. I don't want to be a "Ruby guy" anymore, and will probably start getting into more Python, Factor, and Lua in the coming months. Why is it that I find myself praying this guy doesn't try to get into Haskell, OCaml, Erlang or any of the languages I hope to use? Someone should tell him to stop taking charm lessons from TDR.
