We've never found recruiters useful. Perhaps it was the fact that most of the positions they recruited for were for large companies, and their candidate pool reflected that. Once however, when we were truly desperate, we tried to work with

I guess that overriding the behavior of any built-in classes in Ruby is not a great idea, as most gems rely on that unmodified behavior.

It's too bad this won't result in a price drop on the EOS 5D Mark II.

For a split second there I understood that as "Kindle SDK being released today".

I remember attending one of his lectures on Plan 9 back in 1996 at Bell Labs. It's a shame he's gone now.

You might want to try http://www.spoj.pl/ - there's a repository of algorithmic puzzles and you can submit your solutions in a number of programming languages.

I'd rather they released their SDK publicly instead of this. It has been in beta for a year now, I think.

I agree with your tax greed argument. In Poland, the state will take any and every opportunity to increase tax revenues, while doing nothing to cut expenses. I'm not sure how it works elsewhere in the EU, but here you have to pay VAT on unp

I agree completely on #2. Before college I has a lot of difficulty putting my thoughts on paper, and my writing style never earned me anything above a "C" in my writing classes. Because I wrote letters in college often (asking for funds, mo

An induction plate will probably be more expensive than a gas stove (depending on where you live). What I like about them a lot is the fact that they are a lot easier to clean.

Also, a power monitor might make sense - there's a project that uses the Arduino if you're feeling like building one yourself.

Oh, yes absolutely. I wish I had made the decision to tear down the cement leveling and installed floor heating when I has the chance. Gas heating is killing me, and don't even get me started on electrical. That, combined with a coke heater

Did you notice the price? It is based on the current number of users (multiplied by 0.001). With the price rising like that is should be pretty easy to figure out an upper limit of how much users would be willing to pay for it.

I think you should point out more things that set you apart from other candidates. While an interesting detail might not land you a job, it might get you an interview. Also, be more specific in what impact your work has had on the company.

I just checked the list and found out I'm not getting one. Does anyone know how many are being shipped out in total?

After-tax would be around $2k (the effective tax rate for the self employed is 19%). You can live very comfortably on this in Poland.

I agree completely - during your studies you have tons of free time. Once you graduate and have to find a job all that disappears, and you may not have enough energy to pursue your ideas after spending time at work. If there's a project you

Same thing here, except I found out I was burning too much about halfway through my savings. Since then I realized I have to pay more attention to how I spend money. I'm glad this happened - it is unbelievable how much gets thrown away on s
