Comment Check you contract ... (Score 1) 545

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 ...

Tasmanian Dept. of Education Wants Anti-Virus for Linux, OS X 396

An anonymous reader writes "One of Australia's largest government technology buyers, the Tasmanian Department of Education, has gone to market for a security vendor to supply anti-virus software for its 40,000-odd desktop PCs and laptops, as well as servers. But the department's not just running Windows — it runs Mac OS X and Linux as well, and has requested that whatever solution it buys must be able to run on those platforms as well.

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 ...

"...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...
