A problem with Erlang itself, you've got to have done it the hard way a lot of times to see the value in some of its built in things.

Its unexpected given the background of many of the players, but their are some really impressive entrepreneurs and businessmen among the NBA-alumni. It seems theres not much middle ground after their playing days are done, they either go ba

You can't do it and be stable. That isn't to say you can't do it for short times. I only started a small software consultancy while having a day job along with a wife and toddler and it was a grueling marathon. Sleep took a b

Thats right, the edges of sections or when a visitor finds himself surrounded by home fans is when things tend to get interesting. But again, its miniscule compared to soccer riots, usually one or two guys who have had too much start a conf

that was only an issue once when a guys previous company was bought by Oracle and they offered him a load of money and paid for him to go to grad school. In general though, compensation was never a problem.

More than they do. Every time I've looked to hire one its disappointing that they're so un-rounded in their skillset.

Agreed on Atlanta, I live here, I love my city but theres parts of it where gentrification has been attempted and failed hard. East Atlanta feels like little more than a place for robberies, rapes, and murders to happen.
