The idea is very interesting. I like the idea of minimum $35/hr. To take the idea further, avoid using pricing as a signal, and protect the buyer as well, $35/hr could also be the maximum. That will take rates out of the equation. After t

yes, and the worst part is when the pointy haired bosses become Agile experts and start to look down on software developers. They couldn't write an application even to save their lives but now they feel they are the experts and try to manag

I believe you can. Some rough estimates: - 3 room house on nice neighborhood $150,000 USD - A 2010 Toyota corolla. $15,000 USD. - A maid visiting twice a week. $1,700 USD a year. (This is really nice!) - Private school for kids $3,000 USD a

I recent the comment. Mexico is not a failed state. Sure, we have many problems. We have a democracy; it is imperfect but still a democracy, we have a GDP per capita of $14,495 which is typical of a country with our level of development. Wh

It will impact drug lords. They will probably move to other illegal activities and violence is likely to increase. Still it will eliminate a big incentive for people to choose a criminal life. This is really becoming very serious. Today, we

I also got neutral. But I am not a native speaker, so probably I didn't get some of the subtle differences. It was pretty neat.

I appreciate the correction and you did it in a courteous manner. I am not native speaker and I was a little confused by the mistake. Bad grammar can mislead those of us that are learning. Also, it is understood that everybody makes mistake

tl;dr? Reddit is helping Carl to rank in google higher. Apparently there is an undeserved rip off report that has been damaging his reputation for a long time.

txs, I was just pointing out that money can be used for good or evil. And he chose to use it for good. You can always do the right thing in a hypothetical situation, but you never know until you face the real situation.

He took the high road. I don't know if I could resist using some millions to make life miserable to those who mistreated me.

Could it be that the market intelligence RescueTime is gathering is more valuable than what individual users are getting? I can really see the big guys (MS,Google et al) providing similar tools just to be able to see this info. Specially MS

Yeah, that was an interesting adaptation from the Spanish language academy to the use of computers. At the time there was some public debate similar to the "pluto is no longer a planet".

No one was fired as a consequence of what I did. They were fired because time passed and there were no results. If I had been able to convince my boss I think we would have been successful. At one moment I thought about going one level up i

I have a story that backfired. I had a team of 5 developers that were working in a product. The company had been trying to build the product for several years. When I saw the architecture they were using I tried to convince the architect to
