  1. I think we're missing the point on Are You a Blue-Collar Or White-Collar Developer? · · Score: 0

    I am a blue color developer, and I work with a very talented white color developer. I have to say, that this argument about who is better and why is really missing the point. No matter who you are, are you developing great software that people actually use and benefit from? Are you creative, and do you have a passion for writing great software? Blue or white color, the above is what really matters.

  2. Nastalgia in order on Geocities Shutting Down Today · · Score: 0

    We don't need Geocities to remember what the web looked like in the 1990's.
