What a terrible idea. Please reconsider.

Yes.

Then again, I'm biased.

A proven track record of being self motivated and being persistant with their goals are far more valuable traits in an individual than a piece of paper saying they went to some college or university for several years.

1. 50/50 partnerships are absolutely dreadful for conflict resolution.

2. $3000 for marketing is nothing and will most likely get little results even if op is a marketing guru which does not appear to be the case.

Please Explain

While I agree with the basic premise of this blog post what I find just as rude and selfish is when people over-generalize late-comers to include anyone that is late at all ever and don't care about the "why?" even if it is quite a valid reason.

I've had this happen to me multiple times, and I'm the most reliable person I know when it comes to this stuff.

Reasoning aside, sometimes people are just rude and selfish and it doesn't have to have anything to do with being late at all it's just one of many symptoms of the underlying problems.

I have dealt with it in the past by using their egos against them to force them to be accountable for their actions to the point where they back themselves into a corner which is usually when the lies and deceit start becoming very noticeable which gives me all the reasons I need to remove them.

I've never met someone that was an elitist and not full of crap.

The most 'elite' people I've ever had the pleasure to know were intact very humble about it so whenever I come across someone who acts elite but is not at all humble about it they usually don't last too long because I see this as an attitude problem that can and should only be solved by the individual.

It can't be mining, otherwise we would see similar patterns in South Australia (at least) with similar patterns likely to be visible in every other state as well.

I'd be interested in knowing why this is so as well.

This reads to me like a "6 steps to becoming a better web developer" article because the author completely fails to talk about anything "new".

I don't see how this is any different for "OOP" though (or anything in life for that matter)?

Things are always great till they don't work, and usually are absolutely horrible when they don't.

I see your pipe dream on a daily basis as do many other competent functional programmers so I have to disagree with your entire argument which seems to more related to human error than programming paradigms getting in the way.

Yeah, there's no doubt it sucks but so can working for smaller organisations. It's all about the people your working with. The bigger the company, the more deadwood you likely have to work with.

I see your not familiar with the nature of code deployments and everything that has to happen beforehand. ;)

The two hours were most likely spent on office politics as opposed to fixing the problem. I'm surprised it wasn't > 5 hours to be honest.

I agree (generally speaking).

I'm not sure at what point MVC based design patterns became the definition for OOP but stranger things have happened.

People calling JavaScript the new HTML5 gets me everytime!

To be fair though the topic of discussion was semantics so if we are only talking about semantics it is correct as per the dictionary terminology to call JavaScript an FP or an OOP because it is both.

This is exactly how I feel also.

This simple logic of fitting smaller things together to make bigger things has always delivered superior results for me regardless of the language in use.

OOP seems ass backwards to me but everyone I talk to generally doesn't have a clue how FP is different to OOP!

Oh really? A pipedream you say? Oh ok then...
