I've been using this for some things recently, and it's quite nice, but I still prefer Google Docs. As Ericson2314 noted in another comment, it's missing a good permissions models. It's also lacking a robust suggestions

Well, if the employer finds out you violated your employment contract in this manner they could sue you, or perhaps even the other party that paid you. But IANAL, I'm just saying that contracts forbidding side jobs are not unheard of.

This can add a lot of overhead, and some candidates may have jobs that forbid them from accepting outside work. A good middle ground would be to have the company make a donation to the candidate's choice of nonprofit.

To echo what lanecwagner said, this can be a single role. I'm a Team Lead at my current employer. My job involves coding, being the Tech Lead, _and_ managing the (small) team as a people manager.

To clarify a bit, what happens with Perl is that The Perl Foundation funds the community in various ways. I'm a TPF board member, so I have a pretty good idea of what we do. We fund a number of long-running grants for the Perl 5 and Ra

I'm not an expert in these things but my understanding is that Unity is much better for smaller games. I think Unreal is aimed at the AAA market.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. I don't understand how you segue from generics to "too many types are bad" to "inheritance is bad". I totally agree with the last idea. Inheritance is not a great model for cod

CDDA also has a whole bunch of graphical options. I find it way easier to parse that way and I think most players use the tilesets these days.
