Can't you prove your length of stay with work/rent contracts? Do you know of this requirement from first-hand or where did you hear about this?

Thanks

Sales? How much of an edge does being a competent developer anyway provide you when it comes to high margin software selling?

I'm not sure what you mean - this applies at least to IT contractors.

Exactly.

For example you don't charge VAT for intra-EU invoices and in practically every EU country you're liable to pay taxes there in case you stay there for more than 183 days. There's just no blanket solution here - at least not at the small-fish level.

I was told by a guy who used to contract in Ireland, that there's a heavy crack-down on contractors working through their own Ltd's happening in Ireland, since they want you to pay taxes as a normal employee. Something worth considering, since it could also apply to foreign-generated income.

Can you elaborate? I'm genuinely interested in hearing from someone with experience in both industries to weigh in on this. Especially once the risks on both sides have been calculated in, since otherwise the comparison is largely meaningless.

Looking for a C# web development role with ASP.NET MVC. I have more than 3.5 years of experience developing software with .NET stack, from desktop apps (WinForms), to web apps (ASP.NET MVC) that utilized machine learning methods (R, R.NET) and SOA-based services (WCF, Web-services). All of it was done in the context of working for a financial services software provider, so I also have a lot of domain knowledge of how financial industry operates.

PS: I'm also open to learning another stack, if given the oppurtunity to learn it (especially Python/Django).

"Have you seen books like http://railstutorial.org/book and similar? Is this sort of what you mean?"

Is there something like this for python?
