Why does the additional wealth come into fruition by the toil of poor people? If I have a lot of money and invest it, I don't see how poor people are affected by my investment at all, unless the fact that the money is not being injecte

The article makes things sound very dire, but worse, doesn't really offer any solutions to the issue. I've seen some throwing around the idea of raising the minimum wage, but I'm skeptical this would solve the problem as well

Ah! Well, I suppose I was always afraid of having to mess with OS related stuff instead of getting things done but I think it's about time I learn. Thanks for the information!

Hey I appreciate the input. I'm actually EXTREMELY interested in finance so I'd love to know more about it. Do developers in finance require any unique skills? Also is there anything special one would have to do to break into the

Hm interesting.. do you ever feel like you are missing out on any programs while on ArchLinux? It seems that when people want to support Linux they often only choose to support Ubuntu/Debian. I'm definitely tempted to give ArchLin

Interesting. Well, you would know better than I do since you obviously have way more experience! I appreciate the advice and will keep that in mind!

I both agree and disagree. I imagine most people could tell the difference between an 8th year and 3rd year sushi chef. 3 years seems like such a short amount of time for something as complex as making sushi. On the other hand, I also can s

I used to prepare for them using CareerCup and doing problems on either HackerRank or Google Code Jam's practice problems. Now though I usually don't even bother and just go to them; I think that after you studied for them the fir

Ah okay I think when you said job change I just assumed it meant going to another company, not having a new position or title. I do wonder how quickly you can change positions though. I imagine once you get to senior it's very difficul

They probably do, but I also imagine that a lot of things just can't be taught and instead come from experience. For example, I used to train with an Olympic gold medalist in badminton, and he would tell me that the thing I really need

Does the fact that it's a subsidiary mean it's not a company? Otherwise, what separates a subsidiary from just being another team? I assume the difference is that a subsidiary can be legally considered to be a company on its own a

Why better as opposed to one that is just as good? If you got another job that's just as good that'd be akin to getting a 3 months paid vacation. I would LOVE that

Note that he said a good job, not necessarily a better one. I think the idea is that if someone is giving you 30k to find one, you really only need to find one that pays the same, or close. Technically you'd come out positive if you fo

by rifung 11y ago
Is 30k-40k really correct? That seems a bit high to me.. If you could make even 30k more a year from switching jobs, and you started at the standard 100k, after 10 years you would be making 400k. I haven't heard of any developers who m

There certainly are but are there that many reasons that are good enough to make someone stick around instead of taking 3 months pay while not having to work? I imagine most developers could find a job with similar pay in a month or maybe o

I used LinkedIn still, although I don't do much on there. I find it useful for finding a job seeing as I'm new to the industry and don't have a connection at every company I might want to apply to. For startups I use AngelLis

Indeed I didn't finish my degree and would love to go back and even get a PhD! But.. it doesn't make much financial sense right now, especially when you consider that the earlier you save and invest the better the outcome, so I&#x

Do you get paid by the hour? If not, why does having work life balance mean you can't have a nice condo in a major city?

I'll have to respectfully disagree with the idea that "anything worth doing is nontrivial." This might certainly be the case for you, but I would love to just spend some time learning Haskell, writing an OS for fun, reading p

Actually I have a question! If you aren't going to be able to permanently not have a job, don't you worry about your retirement or savings? After all, what you invest should compound so the earlier the better! Or so that's wh

Hey thanks for the advice. I actually have a digital. In fact I have something somewhat better than a digital: a hybrid (Yamaha N1). It has the action of a grand but I can still use it in an apartment. I also thought this would be good enou

Hey, thanks for taking the time to try and help me out! It does seem like it's a buyer's market right now for pianos, but a decent piano still costs a considerable amount of money. Of course, I think this is partly because I'

Ah I think I am just not the target market as most(all?) of the people I admire don't use it. Thanks for the explanation though!

Hey I really appreciate that you took the time to respond to me. I completely agree with all your points! I'm definitely looking to find ways to start saving so that I'll be able to spend some time not working sooner. And I am sur

I understand what you were trying to say, but I don't remember reading anything that indicated this was his opinion.

by rifung 11y ago
This is actually exactly what I want to do, although I just started working so for obvious reasons it isn't a reality yet. How long does it take to save up enough money that you wouldn't need to work though? Also, it seems like ev

How did the author couple enjoyment with nonproductive? It seems like the opposite considering he's advocating working on an idea for no pay, which is something you'd only do because you enjoy it and can easily be seen as being pr

Can someone explain the value of Twitter to me? I certainly can see its value for advertisers, or even to get breaking news, but I have a Twitter account and don't use it at all. What do you guys use it for? What's the target mark
