   I've been benchmarking various methods recently and also figured out that optimizations basically make it impossible (or very hard) to benchmark correctly. Are there any resources about these optimizations?

   I bought and read the book. It is a good overview of many aspects on freelancing work. Being a freelancer myself most of the stuff i knew, experienced it or read elsewhere, so nothing ground-breaking. However it's a good compilation of all

    Would be nice to have a "company wall". So companies can actually proof that they've got plenty of rock-star developers. Would be a nice way of attracting more talent.

    True, this is something you should know. Although they primarly bust foreigners that work and do business with Thai people, aka take their jobs away. 99% nothing will happen and you have a good time but pray not to be the 1%.

    How is the daily rate defined. My definition of a day is 8 hours. So $1500/day = 187.5$/h. So if you work 12 hours a day, do you charge $1500, $2250 or simply refuse to work more than 8h?
