I went into management/executive roles AND kept up my development skills. Now, I'm back to being 100% a dev. I really doubt I would have earned what I did as a manager if I didn't love doing the job (and therefore spent a lot

At my job? No. My sense is that it depends on team size -- when you are big enough that there's full time work in DevOps, I think you should have a specialist.

I got it a long time ago, so just ~$10/year for over a decade. I did once get contacted by one of my dopppelnamers, who happened to be the lead guitarist of an 80's one-hit wonder band (and now solo), but I didn't want to giv

You could contact a legitimate security firm that buys vulnerabilities to get the credit (and knows how to report responsibly). You want one that immediately discloses and does not resell.

If you want to be hired you could imply the amounts on the resume you send in. If you are seeking a job where selling companies is part of the job (or anything in M&A), you would just list the numbers if you thought they were good enoug

IANAL and this isn't the US, but in the US, (I believe) things created with public funds are in the public domain.

I always recommend very specific resumes and cover-letters written against the job description. Imagine being a hiring manager, getting 20 resumes that all look "good" and one that is obviously specifically for this job. For the r

TCL was pretty common for webdev in the mid-nineties. There was some AOL thing people liked. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AOLserver edit: ah -- I see it's the same thing as the NAVI you mentioned. Nevermind.

This is absolutely not true. We are actively hiring all of those positions. We take down positions from the jobs page when they are filled (which is why it changes).

You have a degree. I guess you need to convince the US that any BA is fine for development (because it is -- if you can do the work). Probably you should engage a US immigration lawyer with expertise in this visa to help you out. They would
