Listen man. There is a certain power in walking away. Don't give that away. Think about your power for a minute. How much power would it be to hand in a written letter CLEARLY outlining the issue described using MINIMAL WORDS? Somebody

Another option is to stall as best you can to see if there is any reason to sign the thing at the last minute. Some times delaying a decision can give you much better results. Also - ask your gut. What do you believe is true about this situ

My heart goes out to the author and is someone I will dub the "Harvey Milk" of the computer software industry.

Native apps with JavaScript? Give me a break. The only "Native" apps worth writing in JavaScript are web apps. Thank you coming out Nativescript - pack a lunch.

Right exactly which raises the point - why work at a start up if you will not hit it rich like it was 1999? The short answer is to work with really smart people who will teach you what you need to know to become them.

Actually you would be better off coding something yourself in your spare time and giving it away for free. As soon as you can get recognition or an audience you are building some intrinsic value that will pay itself out some day.

I would say if you have to ask the question your probably worth about the average starting salary. Perhaps a better question is where can I work so that I can be paid to learn cutting edge software. Eg. React JS or something cool like that.

I thought this was pretty funny but I am wondering if there is any way to actually do something profitable or social with it. I have done this before and I am just curious if anyone knows more about this kind of thing. Is it trolling?

If you guys are actually paying to learn from a college that is the first thing to change. A business owner used to say to me "Kid you have to take the bull by the horns" and I never really got that until later in life. It's
