I don't claim to know exactly why. I can tell you this, though -- a much crazier statistic is that about 1.5-1.75 years ago I did this same search on indeed.com and while it's difficult to believe now or then, perl not only was bigger than

Do a search (separately) for perl, python, ruby on indeed.com perl wins AND it's not a common word unlike the other two in fact, plenty of job postings misspell perl as "pearl" and I'm not even including them The fact that perl has more hit

This reminds me of the game mechanic in Puerto Rico ( http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/3076/puerto-rico ) where money accumulates on roles not chosen to incentivize people to pick that role.

They're hiring right now in Seattle (Pioneer Square). I work one floor above them and one of their recruiters sent both me and another engineer on my team an email (the same email) just a few days ago mentioning that they were right below

Would you be willing to provide just a general overview of your experiences in Costa Rica? Any negatives or things you have to give up by being there? I've heard great things about it from several people.

What happens if the author of the post is late delivering his work? I'd like to see his full contract. If anybody knows of "really good" rather than just "reasonable" contracts for programming contract work (perhaps involving retention of c

Relatively speaking, it is. He could instead use it to have lots of progeny and make sure they'll be in a great financial position to pass on his genes.

Statically linked binaries (No dependencies hell, easy to deploy in production) Is this always this way? I'd be interested in a discussion on the pros/cons of this. Some are obvious, but I'm interested in a deep discussion.

To be clear, this isn't some random professor: My wife (Anita Jones) and I are in Computer Science and we both hold the title University Professor — the highest rank at UVa. Of the 3300 faculty at UVa, roughly 13 hold that title.

Somebody here should hire this guy remotely. He's unlikely to get taken seriously face-to-face because of his age, but his projects/accolades actually mean something to the people here. There's a shortage of devs. Somebody could use him.

I like this article, but an important word that's missing from it is "demand". Consulting allows you to keep an eye on what the market wants. On the flip side, building a product allows you, potentially, to deliver something that people do

Can someone explain what the practical outcomes are of this verdict? For programmers and companies?

If they're really looking to use the money to expand into Enterprise territory, I think it's a really different game. I think the bootstrapped B2C game is ALL about saving money/not going broke. It's most accurately about making great deci

How feasible would it be to have a device that looks like a smartphone and can interface with this police device which would produce enough current/power/voltage/whatever to fry the police device?

Microsoft Research is something of an outlier, but I think it deserves mention here.

Yes. Came here to post something along these lines and to link to this 2006 article by Jeanette Wing, head of the Carnegie Mellon computer science department: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/usr/wing/www/publications/Wing0...

The one comment on the site is exactly the question that I want to know as well: Where can we download the full-size image?

I see it now, thanks. I guess my concern is that that's pretty far down the page and since the the fact that the $200K goal has been met is prominent, that message might not get across very well.

There was some talk of Python support -- perhaps if the project reaches $300K or something along those lines. Is there definitive information on this? How will the fund-raising proceed, in a logistics/mechanics sense if this is true?

Bugger is not common slang in American English. You can find people who will argue about that, but they don't get out much.

In the fall of 2004, Rose withdrew $1,000 — nearly one-tenth of his life savings — and paid a freelance coder $12 an hour to mock up a Web page. He got a deal on server space over the Web for $99 a month. $99/month? Shouldn't that be $99

Haven't used LXR. I've used GNU GLOBAL and OpenGrok. I like OpenGrok. There's a comparison (that includes LXR) on the OpenGrok site.
