"Right now" always seems to be our problem. I just tried to rent a flat and they were trying to enforce 10% price rices every 6 months, even though it's illegal. That's just one example of the "right now". Because I can make a buck, I will,

Relationships are hardly written in stone. Take the time to understand your feelings and talk to you ex. If you can't get to an understanding then is likely that the problems between you two go deeper than you think.

First, thanks for your detailed replay (and to all others too). I'm already working on a kind of 9-5 doing only iOS. I'm in Argentina that right now have a lot of work inflow because our low cost and less culturally differences than asian c

Maybe I could help. I've been working on mobile dev last couple of years (iPhone/J2ME) remotely from Argentina. Email me if you're interested.

I'd give you 100 votes if I could! (gave you one, though)

I don't have any advice for you, but don't forget you did manage to launch a product, twice! To me that's amazing.

Yes, that's the exact explanation patent trolls give, though in fact there's no real evidence on that being true.

Top Gear made two episodes on the Indestructible Hilux (episodes five and six of series 3). Worth watching.

So you say because costs are high they should get protection?

it happened to me the other way around once and though the startup didn't make it, we're still good friends (He was a F&F investor)

That's exactly what I'm saying. You choose where you take risks, and I'd risk penis fracture every day, but think can postpone a phone call a few hours for the sake of 200 people at 10.000 feet.

If there's 0.000000001% of anything happen, why risk?

It is ok as long as you don't feel isolated. The moment you feel is hurting you or not allowing to live the life you'd like, it may become a problem.

Similar background 15K miles down south of you, though the same thing happen to me earlier this year and I had it coming. Too much work on things I didn't like. I took some time off to figure it out and it worked. If you can, don't rush it

I think one might miss the point here, if one would take his writing too literally, that he ended up on an amazing success by just following what was good for him no matter how long did it take. The idea that you have to be willing to kill

I think this gives further credit to apple achievements and makes even clearer that designing good products goes far beyond any rule list anyone could make.

Does anyone think Google didn't plan for this? Isn't this a great excuse to displace Java and use their own language? I'm already scared.

Try not to fill guilty, because there is none for what you have received. Feel free to enjoy despite what you (and others around you) might believe you should/shouldn't. What would whatever you can accomplish mean if you're not happy? Are

That's perfectly fine. It happened to me before of someone offering a job that wasn't for me but for a more Jr. developer and I ended-up passing it on to someone I knew and trusted. I'm from Argentina, and down here you have the leverage of

I strongly disagree. Find a good programmer that will do a good job out of love and money, and will help you with more than just being a code-writing monkey.

Fair advice. I was in a similar situation and blew the whole thing off. I could not regret it more. Be patient an you'll get your reward.

On you own server you decide what and for how long data will be stored. In the government wants your server you can format your hard drive if you want (or whatever you think is fit). I bet you can't do that if your mail is on google (or yah

I live in Argentina, and here companies are crazy about hiring IT people, no matter what your skills are, and most of them do offshore work for the US, paying barely standard fees here and cashing big there. Don't think have to say who wins

I believe it is a sign of how important this issue is to the community. I wouldn't underestimate it.
