I looked at the careers page on Corgibytes out of curiosity. Their hiring approach is very refreshing.

My company got hired for 2 very large MongoDB to MySQL migration projects this year alone totaling over $170k. These apps should have never been on MongoDB in the first place. Total mess that cost them lots of $$. I am okay if others contin

"These kinds of users should not be accommodated or even responded to" Please let me know the software you have developed so I can develop something better and make those users you refuse to respond to happy. Especially if they ar

I think sometimes users think developers are trying to make them angry. "It's not that the users were trying to make me angry; it's that they were ignorant of how to make the app do what they want." Actually, I think the

I have never made a 5 year plan and looking back over the past 15 years of my business, I am thankful I didn't. At least in my business, there has been a significant cycle that seems to happen about every 2 years. Meaning a big change

Best investment I have made was investing in sending my younger brother to a 3 month rehab program. I have made business and real estate investments that have paid off well but none can compare to investing in my brother. I was very unsure

"I've basically built a request router and ~MVC into Wordpress" That sounds really interesting and something I think a lot of devs would be interested in.

This is probably not the popular opinion in this crowd BUT PHP is still the most used back-end language on the web. It has also come a long way since it's early days. Modern PHP is actually decent to work in and learning it will keep y

This is only my opinion so I would love to hear others input too. I think SPA apps are really good for mobile heavy services. Heavy web services such as github or most CRUD SaaS services are fine as a web app. You can still use front-end fr

I would personally love to see a Minecraft developer program. I was hoping Microsoft would have released one by now.

I would also like to add one more. #6. It is not easy! Prepare to put in long hours especially in the beginning. Prepare for it to take a mental toll at times. You will second guess yourself, feel insecure, be consumed oftentimes with your

Yes 1000x. Marketing & sales are way harder than coding and I feel it is not focused on enough in discussions about starting a business.

I have been a single founder company for going on 10 years. Running multiple SaaS services over those years. Some have come and gone and a couple stuck around for 8+ years. Revenue has fluctuated anywhere from $800k+ yearly at its height (b

I think a lot of mid-level to senior-level developers are starting to realize you can net a lot more and have a better quality of life outside of the bay area. The low interest in working for startups is also telling imo. Could that be beca

While I don't think I would use a lot of this in production for the maintainability alone, it does showcase what you can do with CSS. I see a lot of convoluted Javascript being used on things that can easily and more cleanly be accompl

Your savings from the contract renegotiations is impressive. Can you provide a little more insight on this "Then with our email infrastructure provider we were able to switch to a managed service, saving about $900 per month." Wha

Go back to code you wrote 5 years ago or even 3 years ago and refactor it. You will most likely cringe but it will force you to write it better. Also - write code that would be easy to understand for a jr developer. I see so many developers

Have you considered revitalizing depressed cities rather than building new ones? There are a lot of once thriving cities that became depressed due to lost industries/jobs. Building out a tech hub and bringing in tech jobs/workers
