  1. simple approach on Accurate Project Time Tracking? · · Score: 1

    None of these hifi tools are required.

    Put a value to your 1 hour, say $50. Now, assume that you are doing 3 projects for a week. A week is 8*5 hrs or whatever. Now, distribute the $$ across the three projects such that their sum is greater than 8*5*50 [Use commonsense to allocate the share to each projects]

    There you go. You will never under-bill.

    btw, if clients are happy, time to increase your $$/hr. If they are not then it is time to decrease it.

    Flaimbait..

    Why is 'American Engineer' so special?
    If the 'American Engineer' is so special & brilliant, why he has to work in underwage positions? Why dont he just startup (using his brilliance) & make a million dollar
    The point is, why not let the market decide the brilliance of an engineer whichever country he belongs to??

  4. Re:The answer depends on Hiring Good Programmers Matters · · Score: 1
    Also depends on which phase the project is:
    1. If project is in design/development phase, a bad programmer could screw up the whole thing.
    2. If the project is in maintanence phase, you need bad programmer to add on BUGs - to keep the cash flowing.

  6. Open OS? No way on If Microsoft Went Open Source · · Score: 1

    Why does M$ want to do that (an Open OS) When they control > 90% of the desktop?

    However, they can choose to fund some of those Windows based opensource projects on Sourceforge; or better, lure some projects to be part of "open source windows apps project" say at http://www.winsource.net/
