No, it doesn't. It's just as plausible that he's the one being irrational.

I can't see that as "frugalism", more just freeloading. They want the benefits of having a place to live, but with none of the responsibility or bills.

" Do you really want to give someone $2-3000 per month or $24-36k a year just to have a box around you? " Yes. I want to leave the office. I want to have my own space, where I can do my own thing. I want to have a place where I ca

"Wow, and I was excited about 4 weeks of paternity leave at my company. Which I'm still excited about by the way" I realize this may be better than what you had, but the rest of the civilized world puts this number to shame.

"Go has its own SSL library, crypto/tls, which is not linked to any C libraries and wasn't affected by Heartbleed 1.0." Is it going to be affected by Heartbleet 2.0? How about whatever the next exploit is? "The argu

You know, as fun as it sounds like this was, wouldn't the natural solution to the problem be to roll back the Docker rollout?

That's not always possible.

"I'm not trying to start a fight here, but at no point did I ever imply that I was entitled to employees." Yes, you did. "There are certain realities to management and in many cases one bad employee who is thinking of le

Good. There is absolutely no excuse for a company trying to silence the people that work for it.

"What difference is their in your 1 year training period suggestion and simply promoting then firing or demoting in 1 year if things don't work out?" You don't have to pay them the higher pay for the year.

The problem being that people are going to have to perform both their current job AND their future job, for the same pay they have now.

And I know of plenty of people who play football who make several million dollars a year. The question is, how common is it? In both athletics and engineering, the answer is not all that common.

Wow. That person sounds like an entitled ass.

If you use the MIT license, what's to stop the large company from simply using it under the MIT license?

Someone using the "cost of copying the code" argument has nothing worthwhile to say, as they haven't actually thought about what goes into the code. Here's a hint: The GitHub fairy didn't magically add that code to

It's really not that hard. The idea is that the people using the software are a community, and as such should be working together to make the software better. If you're just using the software, and not contributing back fixes, or

The reality is that you are not entitled to employees. If you don't want a flood of them to leave at once, you need to keep them happy. End of story.

by s73v3r 11y ago
Yeah, but the guy in this story is in his 40s. While a startup might not care about education, most of them definitely care about age.

Well, one thing you have to ask yourself is, if the majority of people you're getting are crap, why don't the people you want apply at your company?

"if you can show a active github profile with clean code that shows you are pro-active or a expert in stack or domain, why would "they" not atleast contact you back." Because you're older, or a minority, or female..

No, this is feeding into that "meritocracy" myth again. You're assuming that everyone is perfectly rational, and only looks at code, when in reality this is far from the case. In reality, the interviewer looks at you as a per

I'm guessing there was a reason they all up and left. And quite frankly, it's not my fault that you have a bunch of people who want to leave. The stability of your business is not my problem.

"We sometimes hire fresh grads without a clearance, but experienced hires are generally expected to already have them" Sounds like the problem is one entirely of your company's making.

At the same time, you guys are constantly complaining that you can't find qualified people.

"I want to stop you right there. I think your objective from here out is to make sure you never find yourself unemployable again - rather than waiting and/or hoping it doesn't happen." I think that's kinda like sayi

Companies are cheap, and lots of hiring managers believe they can get lucky and find that one guy that is a rockstar programmer but doesn't know it, and thus can be had for cheap.

by s73v3r 11y ago
I believe they think that. I don't really believe that they do.

"Started a tech company in grad school" How could you do that if you don't have a degree? Very few grad schools will admit someone without an undergrad degree.
