2. I think you'...I wasn't in the ALT.NET...<br /><br />2. I think you're right<br />5. I found this article a little funny, but<br />I also agree with some of the things said there...<br />(more cultural things)Yaron Wittensteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06995467775915610146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5406531700761063414.post-14843067946243395302012-01-04T18:54:17.826-08:002012-01-04T18:54:17.826-08:00You were at the Alt.Net?
We should have met there....You were at the Alt.Net?<br />We should have met there.<br /><br />2. Isn't that just a subset of ifttt?<br /><br />4. Great stuff indeed, if I were developing in .Net I'd use it.<br /><br />5. Meh. Not everyone really "chooses .Net". You choose a lot of things when applying for a job ... but if the super cool startup of your dreams were using .Net, that would be a silly reason to ditch them.<br /><br />Regarding what was said in the followup link (http://mattswanson.org/corporate-stereotypes-and-why-microsoft-could-kill-your-startup-career/) about working at Facebook/Google - this sounds true to me. I think everyone joining a large company at this stage would learn a lot about their proprietary stack, and too little about open source tools. That's actually one of the reasons I left Google - I want to create a startup some time in the future, and the best to learn is by doing, tweaking with the OSS stack, not learning more Google-fu.<br /><br />The worst part about learning proprietary stuff is that it's impossible to find on Google. Yes, even in Google, whenever I faced a problem, I couldn't search Google for the solution or ask it on Stack Overflow ... that was agonizing for me. I'm so addicted to the Google+SO combination.ripper234https://www.blogger.com/profile/04249942902466482054noreply@blogger.com
