Great post, I kinder learnt some similar lessons with a part time project I was working on. Similar concept, get people in Africa to sell stuff online. You wouldn't believe the payment processing issues I encountered and trying to cate

I looked through the site and peeked at the sample application. I am just posting to say, I like the concept of your application. Good luck!

Before I worked for a corporate company I used to think Dilbert was funny. Now I use Dilbert cartoons as a learning tool. Helps me prepare for situations at work.

Two open source front ends I use are SQuirreL SQL and SQL Workbench/J. I agree HeidiSQL is one neat piece of software! Lets donate and have the developer add PostgreSQL support. http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net/

I do not disagree with you. It is all relative and the most important thing is to know what your core business is. Using a car analogy, car salesmen and engineers both need to have technical knowledge of the cars they work with. One focuses

I agree with the op but have a different spin on it. It depends on what you see as your core business. Is your business about the technologies used to build the application or are you using technology to let, "kitchen devices synchroni

I think it is rather unfair to criticise Calibre for being a one stop shop for all things ebook. For none technical people who I would assume are the majority of people reading books this is exactly what they need. Trying to get them to use

The Press should also take some of the blame. I would wager narcissists make far more outrageous claims about their ability and their companies ability. This gives these leaders the "rock star" status thus propagating all that is

These days I use MobaXterm for SSH and SFTP http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ MobaXterm is an excellent program and that has way more features than I actually use.

Not sure why the strenuous objection to the comma first. I too code that way and a couple of SQL formatting tools such as http://poorsql.com/ have the comma first as the default setting. An added advantage to the one mentioned by the orig

For what its worth my previous boss seemed to share the same characteristics as Steve Jobs. At times I didn't like him much but he had two redeeming qualities. He was hard on everyone including the server guys who were giving me the run aro

Just adding my voice to earlier requests for you to expand on your experiences with Bootstrap. I am more of a database developer and have never mastered CSS. I can hack it, thats about it. My initial thoughts were that Bootstrap is going to

Interesting question. As a developer working in Africa you read about the latest technologies on HN. Then you have the added task of working out whether the technology you just read about will work in Africa. This is easier said than done b

Seems most comments are nitpicking some of the amounts and references he uses to make some of his points. This is what I read into it as a developer who has been in similar types of meetings: 1. Charge what you are worth not what the person
