In the overview, it says on cloud or local. Which made me think, why would you even suggest storing this on a cloudy device when your offering a password manager.

Yes ofcourse. It is am open chat, no private conversations are possible for the chat. But when user register, they can send private messages to each other. These i can not read.

Have been a system engineer, switched to PHP developer(mainly backend). I am 31, wife and kid. I make about $45K a year in the netherlands. Really have no idea if that matches the salary of other php developers in my country with about the same experience, but im having a great time at the company i work for.

Your password will never be secure when you store it on someone else his disk or let someone else encrypt your password. Its not a matter of how, but when there will be a way to retreive those passwords by anything but you.

And its not just that, everything you use your passwords for these days, is stored on some sort of storage in a cloudy architecture. Scattered all over the world in thousands of datacenters. You probably are currently trusting thousands of people working over there, but you dont even know these guys. Terrible imho..

Being a senior developer is not just having a great skillset. You need to be able to manage your work in a way the business values it. You need to interact with all sorts of people in the company you work for and help other teammembers rwaching the same level as you.

Our senior developer is always thinking about the business value when estimates are made vs quality. He even does not do alot of softwae development, but is always asked to help out other developers, system engineers and even management to give advice.

To be able to do that in a professional way, your vision plus skillset makes you a senior imo. Not just the years of experience and amount of skills you have.

Depends on your goals and definition of good quality of life. I think there is no best place for a avarage developer. Every life is so unique, skills are so leveled per de developer and matching economics and jobs on these are very specific.

As a dutch man, i can tell you just my experience as a software developer that here in the big cities are enough places to get jobs. Daily mails from recruiters sesrching for new candidates to be places at all sorts of companies. Living here matched about the avarage income to live in a small home with wife and kid.

I mostly look for what needs to be managed and if any framework/package is available, i use it unless its company specific or complex and not able to fit in such premade applications. I do use alot of themes for admin stuff. Like icon packs, chart libs and templates so no time is wasted on gettig things pretty and user friendly.

Our reports department uses Qlikview, which accepts all sorts of data in any sort of format. Which is very easy to use after a few training sessions.

Thanks! When I finished the rebuild, I will be able to create and maintain some new features based on what users want. Will keep de the paid plans in mind! Maybe just a very small amount, it does not cost me that much to run the service.
