In my experience, the issue that I see is that after asking for a raise or more compensation the response is that "they will look into it". Weeks later, no one gets back to you. At which point its time to move on.

In the e-commerce world, the difference between 2ms and 200ms isn't that big of a deal. Search relevance, however, might be something that is important. It looks like that is something they are focusing on heavily.

All great and good to be very fast, but at what price? From their page it costs $450 for 5mil records. In the search world, this is nothing. So I guess its going to come down to if your company is at the point where they need to shave of

why would you work on something for 3 years and not have any sort of beta out there. How do you know what you have is going to work or if anyone is even going to use it? It just seems crazy to work on something for this long and hide it a

Does anyone know of a list like this for other types of developers? Like a back-end development position etc. I really also like the link out to the Github page with a much more extensive list of questions.

Is FastMail a joke? I get more storage for free at dropbox and sugarsync. What exactly is this service bringing to the table? It feels like a 1998 business model to me...
