Usually you can 'pre-arrange' start and end times. It also goes much easier once you realize it's about participation (making decisions) than it is about productivity. Unless of course your participation isn't required, then you can spend y

An easier explanation is: Sin is destructive behavior that brings intentional harm to yourself, others, society and those representing others or God. 1 John 3 4 Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness. 5 But you know t

It doesn't sound reasonable to me. Tell them to prove it. Honestly, you can't reasonably claim that anyone can confuse 'mommy' with 'daddy'. I mean seriously.

I don't think any one person would be ready for this idea. I wouldn't judge how lucrative or feasible and idea is without examining the domain and talking to domain experts. A simple example would be the taxonomy of a product. In terms of c

I'd reckon most of the modern web frameworks can handle that (Rails, Grails, Django, Play, ASP.NET/MVC, PHP, Joomla etc.). Even then it's not as simple as that, because you would need to have knowledge about the interals to tweak for optima

That's some good advice. Usually if the projects' price is steep, I'd suggest the client to pick for themselves and foot the bill. Even though it costs the same, it doesn't seem like it's your expense.

Not that I'm aware of out the box. There are multiple good practices to follow. YSlow and Google Pagespeed are both great indicators of what you're doing wrong. What you need to remember is that you should only 'load' what you need. Don't l

I'd say pick the one that's compatible (or has great libraries) for what you are working in (eg. .NET, Rails, Django etc.). Especially in the beginning of a startup project, it's important to maintain efficiency. From what I've seen, most s

This is quite a broad subject. I'd say it's very important to focus on usability (navigation, layout, flow) - without proper implementation people will sometime just quickly scan and close the website almost immediately. Depending on the we

There isn't a quick cure for stress. It is cited that stress in the short run is positive (can give you motivation), but in the long run is damaging to your health. There are multiple ways of managing stress: Healthy diet (4+ servings of fr

I agree - do your masters if you can afford to. People rarely get the chance later in life to do intense studies when you got a full time job requiring overtime, family and other responsibilities. In the end it's a better investment that wi

Free is a good option to start with. It will give your potential customers a reason to test your app - people rarely buy software nowadays without testing it. Also, it's a good way to get people to sign up for a newsletter.

I'd say a couple of years ago - gradeful degradation was a must. Nowadays - unless you're running some kind of viral service (facebook, twitter etc.) that benefits from masses instead of customers, it's not a requirement. Still a nice to ha

I reckon that's a good question to ask. In my personal experience - very rarely, only in cases when building reusable components or working directly with hardware. The truth is the answer will depend entirely upon which field of programming

I'll start off with a question; what's your label? A resume should echo what you are passionate about. Some people write up a resume per interview specifically tailored to the need of the company. (I see you plan to do X, I have skill Y) Sa

Well, I'd say it's because of legal issues. A couple of months ago I was investigating QR codes. Other than the fact most (if not up to 80%) of people either don't know what a QR code is or how to 'read' it. It's a pretty clever design, at

I think you need to consider how this will impact your bottom line. Is your cheapness (excuse the pun) your major selling factor i.t.o competitiveness? Is your 'market share', only the cheap clients? Generally businesses carve out a niche i

The problem is that country codes isn't standardized. The + (plus) denotes that you need to enter your country code, ex to call your number I would dial 27441234567890 (27 being South Africa). Albeit in generally country codes are 4 charact

Well it's actually quite simple - the amount of bugs depends on the amount of code - less code, less bugs. To truly eliminate bugs, you either need to be able to see the future or have learned from your mistakes and from others' mistakes. (
