It's unlikely that it is inaccurate by that much. The company would not want to show higher salaries either (resentment). You are probably underpaid.

To further the analogy.. as soon as the fruit on the low hanging branches becomes bad enough to justify the additional effort of climbing the tree for the better fruit, people will do it. Your argument makes it sound like you're saying

The "grid" doesn't yet exist in certain plots of land. One may want to build a house in the woods, but not pay the costs to get electric/water/sewage run to the property from whatever main road is closest.

And given how that worked for cultures before the modern age, I'll stick to those who choose to study medicine. Not those who simply prescribe whatever they felt worked once, for a reason unknown to them.

Equal in value does not imply equal in thought, experience, or skill. I think that is the major flaw in your argument and why you are misconstruing breaking down barriers for women as "sexist".

$45 is absolutely not the top range. A previous startup paid more than that to our overseas developers. It is definitely lower than a US contractor rate, but not by that level.

As a white male, I disagree with your belief that race has little to do with police interactions. http://www.nyclu.org/content/stop-and-frisk-data There is much, much more data as well. It's rather frightening tha

It's possible, but the likelihood is so low some might wonder why you're bringing that possibility up rather than discuss the much more likely alternative and how we can fix it. Also; "I asked men and women in tech if they wo

That's the silliest argument I've heard in the past 30 minutes or so (that's saying something online!) I loved the taste of lobster as a child. Feed me caviar then, and I'd be completely grossed out.

Did you read the article? There is no irony here, she immediately points out her lack of understanding of fundamental accessibility principles. That is why she wrote about how we as an industry allow that to happen (senior engineers who kno

Most developers I've met have both installed, and wouldn't think twice if you said "I'm better with Firebug, do you mind if we switch browsers?"

When deciding whether to partner with an organization, I view their team page. You are not only excluding potential coworkers via certain choices.

In the beginning it's tough to determine what is worth contracting out and what is not. After you spend some time experimenting (and often having it all come out in the wash as you saw), you can gain a better sense of when to call in a

Maybe they could get free conference passes, or an invitation to a company gathering if they are in the area.

"Mundane" cycling daily is all that it takes to get the majority of health benefits. No reason to downplay what he's doing.

We can all simply "make an effort not to let it happen" in 2014? Shucks, I wish we had thought of this earlier! Such an easy solution.

You're addressing something avenger123 never asked. They are asking HOW the process happens, considering removing the binding is the most efficient way to accurately scan them as far as we are aware.

Yup, if we want to beat the analogy further, I would say the constant attention to code "smells" and such is like cleaning behind the refrigerator daily when you see dust has landed. I think there is a great middle ground, where y

Luckily, he is not forcing you to donate, so you can choose not to. :) He also commented on his site that he "is poor", so it could be that he simply hasn't landed enough gigs @ $400/hr to be in good financial shape yet.

Your 1 minute demo video does not load due to a https mismatch. You should be able to change the iframe to point to "//www.youtube.com/embed/clKpU9ygaCA?rel=0&autoplay=1" to fix the issue.

Sure, it may be less important, but I'd hate for someone to think that means it's majorly less important (in other terms, unimportant).. letting a car warm up in cold weather is good for it, regardless of innovations.
