   I think the working and traveling part is cool. I am not sure if you can put a price on that.

   A few points; .25% seems low but; a) How close is you hourly rate to what you would get normally? b) Are you learning tech that will set you up to make big money? c) Are you gaining insight about the industry that will set you up to be a co

   We have been using codeship for about 4 - 5 months and we are really happy with it. The guys do a nice job. Moreover, they spin up DB instances that can handle our integration tests. It really has been a time saver -- not having to maint

   Github for source control. Codeship for testing, packaging, push to S3. Bash for pulling the releases from S3 and deploying them. This is all done with a help of SBT. I haven't been able to find something that replaces Bash but open t

   I really love the direction UI/UX is going in, more and more based on science. There is already good amount of work done in the human factors and ergonomics area -- I would love to see this knowledge applied to web and mobile apps.

   I agree. I know people posted a comment saying its fixed in 2.11 but if Scala wants to be production ready language it shouldn't take 10 years to address this.

    Yeah that would be something. It really looks in the style of Goolge Music probably heavy with HTML5 and css. Doesn't look like there is flash.

    Yeah we ran into this problem... Scala and the whole ecosystem can get annoying. In the real world, outside of the academic bubble that Scala lives in, database tables are over 22 columns.

    Slick, although looks promising, is not ready. Lack of documentation, examples, and voodoo syntax. If anyone can tell me what $, #$, and +? inside sqlu statement are? So here is something I found. Its a benchmark for some of the ORM fram

    Have you thought about linking the salary to the performance of the company. Other industries operate this way... I want our industry to operate this way as well.

    Today, HN has been full of stories that make me sad about being a software guy. Maybe the only way is to work in early stage startups, moving on after the managers roll in and your day is full of meetings about new reorganization.

    JavaScript is single threaded you will never get a good smooth UI. Maybe in the future there could be more support for a "UI-thread" and background tasks but for now that's how it is. Android UI framework is basically a cop

    This sounds a bit fake. I don't see what you have to gain by doing this anonymously. On the other hand, I don't see why someone wast their time faking something like this but then again I never got why people troll everywhere.

    I think this is the path for most "software engineers". You move up the ranking to Sr. or Principle then you have a choice between; 1) Management 2) Architect 3) Entrepreneur 4) Product Manager All of them have their own ups an

    I have to agree with this at some level. I have seen startups trying to pull this type of crap. I haven't figured out why, it could be because they are trying to create "elite culture" that just doesn't fit or they are

    I agree. I think the old way was about content now it's about a apps. One of those, if good, solves a problem.

    I completely agree. Even late stage startup will begin to look more like what the blogger has described. The blogger should gain some exp and move on to a small/early stage startup or find a way to move in to R&D role within Micr

    I have been struggling with these types of questions in my career as well. For a while, I was more of a front-end developer doing Swing rich-client desktop applications and touched on some mobile development with some basic back-end. The

    Nice work. I wonder if there is a way to build the cheat sheet in a collaborative fashion kinda like a wiki. On thing I noticed, I am no expert in ML, but recently I was reading about K-means algorithm that enables you to quickly find the
