It's not that I don't care, I just don't understand why this is news. I'd love to know if what you claim they are doing is actually happening, but I didn't see that in this article. From what I can tell, all this article says is "Google is

Working in a technical position at a startup has been the best experience for me. Although I haven't done much consulting, it is a definite improvement over working a 9 to 5 at a fortune 500 company. I feel like everything I do is worth my

This is the final straw. I've been considering convincing my work to switch to git + GitHub, but I've just written up my proposal and I'm pitching it tomorrow, this is too awesome to pass up.

Apply to work at smaller companies.Most big companies have to follow "hiring guidlines" and the like, but if you apply to startups and companies with sub-100 people, they will often over look things like a college degree for prior work expe

But that's more aiming towards freelance type work, while it seems like this is more of for people to find full-time jobs. As for this being different, I don't think it is supposed to be. But I guess we will find out once it actually launch

I as well like central California, but I would be wary of the central valley unless you can deal with heat well. I live on the coast, which I love, but it is no where near as cheap as the valley, it at least has weather I can survive in. Th
