Yes, I know the rates in USD/GBP/EUR, and that's why I was asking. I had a quick look at odesk and the rates are lower than I would normally charge myself for the things that I do. That's what made me curious, but your answer makes a point,

I had a quick look at the jobs offered on the website and I found those as example: WordPress template: budget 12 BTC (~115EUR?) PHP: add more currencies to BT converter site: budget 5BTC(~50EUR?) DE to EN translation: 3BTC (~30EUR?) (conve

Not exactly what you are describing, but not too far off and probably can be used for the purposes you describe: Open Invention Network: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Invention_Network

To me, it's not about how many devices they have and whether that makes sense, it's about the fact that they had spent $200,000, which then generated $5,000 (this year only, don't know how long they've been at it), they had to move to a sma

To me, it sounds like a description of an addiction, completely irrational and willing to sacrifice life necessities just to have another fix.

When you build other people's apps you are still digging for gold, you just get paid to do it, hence eliminating the risks (and the gains too, if the App becomes popular). But what I think meant with this simile is that instead of being an

Why do you think developers should proceed with caution? They don't seem malevolent to me. Perhaps you question their methods, which is legitimate, but if you have any other information apart from that, I would like to hear it. Additionally

We don't know if they can do that. You might say we can observe their behaviour, but would an entity as intelligent as us, but who cannot communicate with us, draw this conclusions by observing us? I doubt it. If you don't know our "reasons

I disagree with the comment about Sony unable to match Apple's design. I have an Xperia S and although I don't flaunt it around, people who have seen it made comments about how good it looks. Including a few Apple Fans with iPhones. A coupl

"technology is being used to give more normal people a say" God bless technology. Without it we would run the risk of letting less and average normal people have a say.

Semantically, there isn't really a contradiction. I can spend €9 a month on a subscription to Spotify and in reality I didn't buy anything because no ownership of anything was transferred to me. You can disagree and say that I bought a ser

I'd say that if enough people change the the ratio of their donation so that "Make The Desktop More Amazing" gets $0 while "Better Support For Flavours Like Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu" gets the most of the donation, this might help Canonical

In addition to things that were said, I found some good work on Elance.com, and small projects then evolved to things that kept me busy full-time. For me it was a bit intimidating to begin with since I had to compete against developers whos

I agree and can give the opposite example. I have a Sony Ericsson X10 since it was released (2 years ago? Longer?), never had a case, and have dropped it several times. You will find the marks from those falls only if you will look really

Just to clarify: 1. I did read the campaign but I didn't refer directly to this particular campaign but rather to the general situation in response to equating support for gay rights to support for other illegal activities (in this case inc

I'm not trying to convince you, I guess you are beyond that, but for other people who think "maybe this person has a point": The issue for most homosexual couple is not a semantic issue: to be allowed to have their relationship legalised by

I agree, and in addition, the probability of incest is much higher for heterosexuals than homosexuals since the probability of two homosexual family members is much much smaller. In other words, when and if support for legalising incest ar
