   I'm sure that's also true but plenty are real. I know devs in London who are on those rates. And yeah, the Java roles are usually banks.

   There are lots of contracts in London with 500-700 GBP per day rates...Java/Ruby/Node and more. Those are for dev roles, not consulting roles.

   It's only tech/startups journalists right now. If we decide to add more groups we'll implement a tag system but we decided it was not needed for now. The reason for making this was that we really wished something like this ex

    Yeah people seem to "like" the idea on there! We probably will not be hiring until we have streamlined our model a bit more and started earning revenue or raised another round of funding.

    Thanks! You might already know but the UK has AnyVan which is similar but perhaps more for long distance stuff. I think they have eBay integration too. You're right that is a huge market though.

    I heard of this case growing up and it has always been considered a mystery in Iceland. I haven't followed it closely but this is the best write up of the case I've seen; impressive work by BBC. While I'm not defending the in

    I don't think unit tests should dominate the architecture of your applications. I hear this a lot from the angularjs crowd. I also disagree with architecturing your applications for things that might need to be changed in the future (b

    Thanks! :) Yeah, once the site has all the features we want we'll definitely start working on an app. Tracking is something we're really interested in doing with that.

    Hey :) I'm able to reproduce this by disabling JS. I'm on Chrome on a Mac as well and with JS enabled there are no problems.

    Thanks! Once we handle payments we can take a small cut. We have many other ideas such as selling moving insurance and related services but we haven't decided on anything yet. We just wanted to launch it and see how it works and worry

    IRC servers form a spanning tree which makes it really easy to split an IRC network in two. I think this is the protocol's main weakness which should be addressed somehow. It's difficult without overcomplicating the protocol thoug
