Aaron, I live in Cambridge and know several programmers and places to find them. Email me and I might be able to help you out - my email's in my profile.

Don't be so stubborn about finding someone who knows php/Rails. Any programmer who knows something like C or Java can learn php or rails really well in a couple days max. Plus, maybe rails isn't the best choice for what you have in mind.

Ray Kurzweil has an insatiable curiosity. I talked with him recently, and even at his age, he was trying to learn all he can about cancer biology (which is not even his field) from the top people. If he was even half as intellectually cur

Even better than that toaster, when I tried to reinstall my wireless driver on Windows a while back (since then, I have seen the light and switched to Ubuntu), the new driver wouldn't install because a few files were missing. "Please click

Au contraire! You should be able to get more responsibility at a startup. Startups don't have room to pay you to work on something that's not mission-critical. Big companies do.

yes you'd profit that much on average, but with a gigantic standard deviation.

Agreed. That would only lead to ... "I got the phone number of some guy that continually keeps spamming my inbox. Is there a company I can submit their phone number to so that they get a barrage of telemarketers calling their phone?"

here's a game theoretic explanation of why that's no good: okay, fine, let's have an exchange rate where karma gets less valuable as the amount of total karma increases. then me and my friend will upmod each other 1 karma, because we're ea

If someone needs to be paid extra (hourly) in order to stay one extra hour in the evening, they're probably not an ideal startup employee.
