@dcuttridge@nixcraft Absolutely agree. We're at a point where even M$ has to agree that Linux is the OS of choice and it's time to stop trying to shoehorn Windows into being something it's not. Now if WordPress could die in a fire and be replaced by something better architected, I'd be truly happy.
It is with great sadness that I share news of Joe Armstrong's passing away earlier today. Whilst he may no longer be with us, his work has laid the foundation which will be used by generations to come. RIP @joeerl, thank you for inspiring us all.
Any client that hires you for your skills/expertise then proceeds to tell you how long they think the project will take or that "it's something simple" is a client to avoid. Don't allow anyone to devalue you or your profession.
