What a short-sighted comment. Dig a little further down. If this is their reponse to an issue that affects three customers it sends a message that every customer is important. Their reponse makes me, a potential customer, trust that they

This is exactly what I've done over the past several years with great results. I stayed in constant contact with my old college professor (we play a sport at the same club) at a school none of you have ever heard of in the Chicago suburbs.

I agree with you that there are many forces that shape options, but my original point was that temp work is an option. My original reply was to someone that threw out a blanket statement that all temp work was bad in the long term. Surely

In real life land, people are responsible for their own careers. Temp jobs are an option if a worker so chooses and not a cure all. If a temp job to get a temp paycheck to get temp experience does not help fulfill their goals then they sho

"Temp work is bad in the long term." I'm not trying to be an anus, but temp stands for temporary which is not long term. It looks like they are looking to improve individual skills that are in demand in order to progress to a full-time job

It is not a black hole. Your vision is just clouded from pain. Let someone hold your hand while you get through it. Ask your boss for a short-term leave due to family issues. Take it without pay if need be. You need to be around family and

I'm going to make some assumptions about your situation so pardon me if I get some things wrong. Do not make any decisions while you are in despair. Reach out to a family member or friend NOW. I felt something similar to this pain once (a

How is this different than hiring your company to develop the software/application which you already offer as a service through your company? What extra value are you offering for the equity? I am personally not interested, but I think any

I attended Starter League (formerly Code Academy) in Chicago last fall and I'm in my mid-30s with the exact same background as you. The development part was the easiest and like Keith said you will pick it up very quickly. The toughest pa

Why don't you buy it back? He gets to recoup part of his failed investment and you get your project back. Dedicate 3-7 days to implement what you've learned since that time and set up a passive income source. Would make a hell of a follo

Talk to your boss (manager, CTO, etc...) first! You have nothing to lose by doing this. Be completely honest with them about your feelings, but phrase things in positive ways. Don't say you "already stopped learning new things", but tell

Here is the story from one of the co-founders of Code Academy. http://howilearnedeverything.com/2011/10/30/clearing-the-air... I only know his side of the story, but I know Neal and have the highest respect for him. He's a good dude.

I strongly agree with this point. I was also very distracted during this very good post wondering if Dan signed off on it before it was published. By the end I assumed that was the case, but the message would have been better served witho

I completely agree. The article is a circular contradiction. The author's goal is listed right in the article: "How did I do it? By creating new disciplines I actually liked doing. This is the secret to a healthy, productive life and to ma

Your last sentence has a conflict in it. You are thinking about open-sourcing the project, but you still want to control it? That doesn't sound very open. Are you at a point where you can launch something? Do you have any feedback from p
