Firing someone is always hard, no doubt about it. But I disagree that it's bad for team morale to fire a nice underperformer. In fact, I've seen the opposite happen, where having to drag along a team member was a reason for people

I don't get it. The whole industry is complaining about not being able to hire developers, yet there seems to be some kind of competition who can come up with the most awkward hiring process. Requiring homework is a great way to deter

Keep in mind that ASP.NET 1.0 was published in January 2002 and PoF was launched in 2003. It was actually a side project to learn the latest hot technology.

Well, US$ 4000 is 2950€. 2950€ net equals about 5100€/monthly before taxes, social security and health insurance. 61.2k€ per year does not sound totally unreasonable. Edit: this is more or less worst case, i.e. highest tax class and pu

Well, IANAL. I think you already covered the most important point: store backups on hardware/services under the control of your employer/client. I would document the backup process and communicate it to my manager/client with a mail like "h

They couldn't compete if they would "back it up on the cloud". They build their own custom storage servers, this way they "can reliably store and retrieve data at up to 25 times lower than the cost of other services such as Amazon S3 by usi

The problem with many articles about REST is that they revolve around the question how to make your API more RESTful, and rarely answer why (and if) it actually makes sense to do so. I think that proper use of HTTP methods is one of the cor
