It really depends on the website. Some websites take half an hour by one developer to make, some take 6 months by a team of 30 senior developers, DBAs, sys admins, designers and managers.

2.9% + $0.30 for transactions above $10 So it's exactly the same costs.

I've been in charge of tech interviews at a large corporation. We quickly discovered that people lie on their resumes, like listing technologies they really only know how to spell. After that I stopped reading the resumes. We're looking for

But side A will always give you work :) Joking aside, I think it's nearly impossible to predict. I doubt most HR departments do background checks that thorough, but you never know.

I always hated amazon page design. They have this disease where they try to put as much shit on the page as possible. Their home page is completely unreadable. I'm sure they A/B tested it to the stratosphere, but it doesn't work for me at a

When you recommend a framework, you better tell us why it's better than the rest.

Have you ever built a trading platform before? What if somebody gains access to your database and changes the financial transactions records? Do you store them in a way they can't be modified? Do you have a cron that constantly checks the h

You can't stop progress. Anything that can be automated, will be automated. People will switch to more intellectual jobs, until we invent the mega-brain that will make us his slaves.

the shortest I could do is 72 characters in PHP. I have no idea how they can do 56. <? while(++$i<101)echo $i%15?$i%5?$i%3?$i:'Fizz':'Buzz':'FizzBuzz',"\n";

If you liked "Game of Thrones", try "Chronicles of Amber" by Roger Zelazny. I hope one day they will make a movie or TV series based on it. As for sci-fi, you can learn from it too (the science part). Also, many older sci-fi ideas became re

I have tried it, and the UI is just sluggish and barely usable (Chrome, i7 CPU, 8GB RAM). Have you thought of optimizing the whole thing, like maybe "rendering" the tune into WAV raw data, and playing that instead? The social aspect is ques

Most web apps would require some sort of a back-end and storage. So you at least need to know some SQL and a server-side language (node.js is an option, but seems much harder than PHP). And then you can't just "learn" javascript, you need t

It's kind of interesting, I like how clean it is, and that the most important keywords are presented in 2-word titles, which makes it very easy to scan. I would remove "via", it's polluting the page. EDIT: And maybe add the timeframe select

It depends on whether it's W2 hourly or 1099 (or even corp2corp). If you usually make 50/hr + benefits on W2, you should charge at least 70/hr for 1099. It also depends if you can negotiate. If you can, start with a very high number and neg

And if they won't sell them at a reasonable price, you're stuck with an ugly domain name.

A) Get a top-level domain such as .net or .info? B) Get a country code level domain such as .us or .cc? .org is better - there's wikipedia, craigslist, wordpress, thepiratebay, all in top 100. If you look at alexa top sites, t

It does, HTTP at least. That could be enough to DDoS even a large site.

> Why pay 3/4 of the population to work 40 hours a week when we could pay all of them to work 30 (then 20, then 10)? Because that's not how it works. Let's say a company has a full time programmer at 150K/year. They can probably hire

Neither USSR nor China never had 80% of the population on welfare, not even fucking close. USSR didn't have welfare, only pensions that had to be earned.
