   When hiring a developer, we call them "Senior Developer" so they'll ask the next company to pay them more money. We'd rather keep the money and pay intangibles. Makes the shareholders happy and at the end of the day, that's all that mat

    So are you looking to capitalize on your GIS chops? Maybe building location-based apps that are genuinely useful... Or are you trying to figure out how to generate advertising dollars on webby stuff? If it's advertising, I can't help you (

    You can't prevent scraping, but you can poison it. I can think of two approaches: 1. Replace bits of text on output with unicode look-alikes. Humans will still read what you want them to read, but non-humans get crap. 2. The mountweasel a

    The only commercial CL I've used is Lispworks, which is an awesome product. However, the main reason i bought Lispworks was because of its GUI component (CAPI) which turned out to be crap. I now use CCL when I need a native Cocoa interface

    I think it does. Any developer should be able to build a simple bubble sort with one hand tied behind his back. It doesn't matter that they've never had to do it before because a bubble sort is pretty obvious. If someone can't throw a simp

    Well to be fair, revolutionizing a broad product category sometimes means introducing a technically inferior product that is usable by a wider range of people. ESRI's stuff is just horrible. I've consistently used ArcGIS as an example of a

    Steven Degutis is apparently unaware of Clozure Common Lisp which makes Mac development easier and more fun. Or Embedded Common Lisp which makes iOS development easier and more fun. Neither CCL nor ECL seem any deader than usual :-)
