I don't understand why people complain about being contacted by recruiters on LinkedIn. It's your public CV and professional contacts; recruiting is what LinkedIn was designed for!

As long as free fizzy drinks are considered sacred, engineers will never reach the income levels seen in the legal, medical and financial sectors. Employers will treat like adolescents those who behave like adolescents.

I think it's more the case that this sort of blog-post always rises to the top of HN. It's a topic that always comes up when developers get together. It goes together with a lot of other non-complaints: "I constantly get contacted by recrui
