First, tell them about the concurrency proposal and see what they say, they could adjust your salary to keep you inside the walls. If they don't, don't wait, they think you are not important in the company and your loyalty will never pay.

Man ... I don't know where you worked (country) but in my French contract it is specified that everything I create in the company is owned by the company. Seem fair to me, they employ you. In fact I wonder if you are not the one who made a mistake by making the company stuff opensource without their consent ... But as I'm really not sure about this, I agree with previous comments, contact a lawyer ...

How can I filter all useless comments and leave only the comments answering the damn question ...

You think that people who makes themselves human bombs talks during interrogation without doing things forbidden by Geneva convention ?

I never used it because I don't have TB of content but XBMC seems to be be something that could get your attention.

I like it, it's clean and l like the logos going with the articles. Nice job

A good developer is someone who produce good code not someone that knows the latest language.
Experience is supposed to take you the upper skill level, making you more valuable than any guy out of school or a junior.

Learning the basis of a language is fast, acquire experience is long. This new guy will make errors that the older guy would not do thanks to his experience... The time the junior fixes all the bugs your senior developer will be able to teach him tricks on this new tech.

The technologies doesn't change a bad developer in good one. The real question to accept the salary raise should have been "Is the guy as competent as my senior".

The guy should have been raised compared to another Junior hired, not 30% over a senior... You must be hell of hurry ...

You forgot that Japan is 5+ years in advance with the rest of the world in mobile technologies...

Google is not the first... They are just the first to communicate on it. Nokia and Samsung have their own devices ready for at least a year.

"...The devices would also have two phone numbers." If we talk about GSM, devices have no phone number, SIM card is identified on netwok and associated with a phone number. Unless the SIM card is dual IMSI, there is only one phone number. As far as I know, a SIM is using only 1 IMSI at the time, something is missing or you'll still have to power off a VM and start the other one...

Damn I hope you're not serious !

Reminds me a book dealing with the subject of regeneration : "Rollback" Robert J. Sawyer

I don't have much knowledge on antenna stuff .. but there is as well a notion of validation on handset side. And the black hat would have to hack the server side of the whole solution, there is a list of allowed resellers you are allowed to use the service with.

A SIM card provider was working (last year, I quit since then) on an antenna you can plug to your SIM card to "upgrade" your phone. It would make any smart phone NFC compliant.

It already exists, in France in Nice. Project was launched last summer in production. It requires both SIM card and mobile compliant with NFC technology (Near Field Communication). But it's the very beginning, mobile constructors don't provide any list of devices compliant yet. You need to be very close to the terminal to have the transaction initiate, no way you can have it done from your pocket. And everything can be locked by your operator in no time OTA (over the air) if you loose your phone. For the moment, this service is provided by your bank, it's not available in the services of your mobile operator ... yet.
