Port Mozilla, Collect $3696

Posted by timothy on from the but-to-amiga dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The goal of the AmiZilla effort is to raise such an obscene/huge amount of money to give away to the first programmer/team that can port Mozilla to Amiga that Amiga programmers will be falling over themselves getting this application coded in record time. The booty currently stands at $3696. Parties interested in making some extra cash to pay off student loans/go on a wild bender can find more infomation here."

      We certainly won't be able to do this for another 8 or 9 months, that is for sure. Please give us her phone number after the baby is born, and then we can try.

    CS degree is one thing but what else have you done? To met a built up portfolio is way better than a degree can ever be because it lets potential job givers [re: employers] see the talent you have.

    A degree is just a check mark on a HR checklist. To impress your would-be boss you need initiative and the ability to demonstrate.

    I'm developing those two libraries in my spare time and it has caught the attention of quite a few people. I was awarded a stipend for a conference this year through a contact I made by writing those libraries. I'm not even in university and they awarded me a stipend!
