The "tens of millions" (for outliers) is exaggerated, I'll give you that. What I meant to say, perhaps a bit more tactfully was that if you're an above average software engineer capable of getting a Wall St/Hedge fu

And the best in software make tens of millions. What is your point? If we're comparing outliers, software engineers at software firms win by a long shot.

Easy. Just use deis [1]. Or CoreOS [2], if you're more hardcore. In any case, with the advent of Docker and 12-factor -- not to mention openstack [3] -- Heroku is a commodity or fast approaching it, and will soon face pricing pressure.

I don't even think you need to learn it eventually . For a similar argument, ask if most programmers need to learn assembly or further down the stack, EE, eventually. The answer is a resounding no. Extrapolating this even further, in

Can anyone from the Flynn project comment on this versus Deis? I've tried Dokku and thought that was pretty slick, but ultimately decided to move on to a Deis/Chef devops setup, because dokku was too lightweight for my needs and F

Rather than paying a particularly good programmer 10x as much, you can just hire 10 mediocre programmers, and they will probably get more done. Not in finance; let me tell you from my experience poorly building a bitcoin tr

You should really try out AngularJS. The declarative syntax of it reminds me of Flex quite a bit. I haven't used AS3 or Flex in years and really miss that environment, and when I started using AngularJS I felt like I got a taste of it

Please take it easy on this person and don't turn this into a lynch mob. I up voted it for a genuine differing perspective. I agree that "the valley" ( including SF ) has its warts, but on second thought this post is hardly c

What a coincidence. I was just holding his cofounder, Drew Schiller's card in my hand at the time I read this headline on HN. Clicked through the link and saw it was for Validic! For those who don't know, Validic is a very nice AP

Essentially, he's operating as a realtor, or landlord-as-a service. A broker, a middleman, who smooths the process and reassures customers. It doesn't seem very scalable, but if it doesn't take much time then great.

I'm sure CAD software made lots of car designers redundant. What most people in our industry seem to not realize is the intense power accumulation laws at work. 1 Designer can now do the work that 50 could in the 50s. All that wealth i

I only do this when there's no other choice: I work in an open air office that the startups du jour are so proud of, so I'd rather listen to a coherent stream than dissonant chatter.
