Fair. Do you feel that $20/year is reasonable or are your initially anchored feelings negative? We wouldn't be making any huge shift upward if we do move the price up. We can probably move into custom graphs and real-world data as we bump

What do you think would be a reasonable cost given your budget as a teacher? The feedback we're getting from friends will probably be skewed by geography. Perspective from people in other areas would be appreciated. edit: Also, we fixed

we do plan on linking some examples on the front page soon. its fresh off the presses, we literally high-fived about it working about 30 minutes ago. we don't have the marketing stuff complete just yet. will look into the readability and

i would argue your point a different way. i think it is one of two things: 1) web development is where the jobs are, right now. below average and average developers will (or have to) follow the jobs and the money. superior developers are

it probably won't be well received because its contradictory. why can't a smart person be the master of the web development domain? and i can tell you from experience that there are plenty of dumb people working in business analtyics, data

i would not use it in future projects, myself, because my company is currently using it in several products in several different ways, and it has been nothing but headaches, problems, etc.. the theory behind the thing is great. in reality,

same. my company is hiring like crazy in atlanta. we can't find enough good developers to fill our needs. having said that, i know nothing about this guy. its not worth $1k to have to have to work with someone difficult, or to make a rec

"shortage" is relative. there's a shortage of people who actually know what they're doing who are willing to work for your company for how much you're willing to pay.

i think you're getting downvoted because anonymous has proven many times in the past that at least the people "in charge" (as much as you can call it that) definitely know what they're talking about and are possibly comprised of security ex

treat it as such, then, and state it up front. i tend to introduce it as something like "a code question to see how you think" (or something to that effect). and then set the tone by asking a question that is simple on the surface, but peo

i'd point out that he mentions two examples, the average the guild episode clocking in at 10 minutes, the average never not funny episode clocking in at 1h 30m.

i suspect never not funny passed 6 figure revenue as an enterprise (subscriptions, shirts, back episode sales, etc). he dropped some clues in an episode once before quickly changing the subject.

the only feature i'd like to see is the ability to plug in functionality, like the ability to create your own front- or back-end plugins or an app store type of thing similar to shopify. of course, i know that this isn't a simple request or

the only time i downvote anything is if i feel it is objectively wrong. if i simply disagree or am ambivalent, i don't vote at all.

what if a site like this integrated a system that identified an individual's writing patterns and alerted the person to them, prompting changes in text they submit, thus attempting to ensure anonymity?

i prefer CodeIgniter, myself, when doing PHP development. i like it because it doesn't force you into anything, but if you want to use its helpful features, you can.

to be fair, though, these guys are doing something similar to Mint, and Mint also had a lot of people skeptical and critical of their service. i've been on the waiting list for a long time and once i get in, i'm going to transfer a bit of m

this is true, but sometimes people bend or break this rule (most people don't, of course).

yes, you're right, what i said wasn't fully true for expediency's sake, but your statement isn't fully true either. federal minimum wage laws don't apply to tipped workers in the same way (iirc, it varies based on the state, i'm not sure).

this is something that probably isn't clear to people who don't live in the US -- wait staff in the US make around $2-3/hour. they aren't paid a living wage. they rely on tips as their primary source of income, and tips are usually shared

it seems that his point with CSOI is that despite all the money they've spent, they don't have much customer or user loyalty and at least on some level, their revenue is linked to their marketing expenses. scaling back marketing expense =

yeah, any company caught doing something like this would likely respond pretty much just like this, intentional or not. rogue contractors or unauthorized employees, they were acting without the knowledge/consent of higher ups, they've since
