I would recommend PostGreSQL and you probably won't need to switch to Oracle if you use PostGres properly. Importantly its free and has a usable and friendlier license than MySQL. I am working on a startup idea which will also have high tr

Why don't you publish the top 3 or 5 folks who up vote and down vote the most, maybe as an additional section on the leaders page. It might effect behavior interestingly.

I think the Facebook valuation is a bit much at $4.5 to $7 billion. My reasons: +Web startups should not be valued over 10 yrs, this is demonstrably much longer than most significant startups last Also consumers in the web world have short

I am in a similar situation. Moonlighting too, but that should end shortly as I leave my current company for working on the startup full-time. Surprisingly I am doing the 'don't break the chain' thing too. I seem to be getting about 20-30 h

I think that there is a very strong emotional bond involved when programmers create a product that they think is the best. This is because they have both the craft and the vision - these are critical components for success. Rokhyakebe in y

Job A if your want to improve your creativity. Job B if you want to encourage your technique. To improve my programming I generally do things that I can't figure out how to do in my head.

Winter 2008 or summer 2009 is too far out. Work expands to fill time after all. If you aim for Summer 2008 you might be able to do this better.

maxklien, 1.My own perspective is that it does not matter whether it is a 6 or a 7 and who interprets it how. That is the whole point of a subjective system it is not objective. 2. I believe subjective systems should not use numbers or oth

Are you suggesting the average coder earns over $80K+. I don't think so. If the average age for founders is 26, then they possibly have half your work ex, which translates to a significantly lower salary. Here we are talking about people in
