    I would agree with you if the IT job market was small, but the truth is that USA has 300 million people there, and in every major city there is a ton of companies desperate for decent developers, even if his resume is not perfect, of course it is true only if the before mentioned developer is willing to relocate.....

    The funny thing is that if you are pro in your work, you would know your price, your skills, and you would NOT allow yourself to be scared, because it is simple, scared employee cannot work at his best. So, just to tell it with other words, if someone tries to work harder for less... the he is simply a noob, trying to look pro, and to satisfy his boss' ass$%$%$%$

    LOL, if have not yet catch my joke, let me give you one free advice. Only "idiots" would wear such a nasty brain killing machine as a Head-phones, it is not only the sound (do you really know what sound is???), but also the specific and nasty field spread out of this head phones is good enough to fry anything and everything in a mother of just two three years constant use. Or five years accidentally use. Take my advice, by a decent HiFi system, and live happy.

    Look at the pity C++. It does not even have a proper reflection implemented? For god sake, it does not even have PREBUILD libraries. Really, what the frack? Why should i have all the templates source code, and why should i have to compile it every time i instantiate one template only!!!
    Callbacks? Thanks god the newest standard c++11 has lambda functions, AT LAST. but when i try to persuade my coworkers to use them, they look at my like alien (in its ET meaning) and keep using the stupid BOOST.
    And no, my argument is that since the boom of the OOP some 15 years ago, a normal sane developer would expect more dynamic and more sane features implemented, instead, we are served with plain, old, gang of four. Let them burn in hell.

    Quite the opposite man, quite the opposite is happening. I have a few books under my radar, and since the last year i was surprised to see the following trend:
    Instead of having paper book sold for $15, and 2-3 months it's kindle variant to be sold for $9.99, now the paper book is sold for $10-11, and the kindle variant for $16-18 ONE YEAR AFTER THE BOOK HITS THE STORES. And still counting.... Just for the record, check this one: http://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Story-Dresden-Files-No/dp/045146379X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338169739&sr=8-1
    Instead of always having both kindle and paper variants, now in some cases you have only the paper book, no matter the interest (or maybe because of it), and no matter the demand.
    So, cheap lady, you still insist the publishers want to sell you cheaper and cheaper? Keep swimming, it is not a fish...
