Re: The money motive
"Debuggering code is difficult. It is very difficult to get people who are "giving" their time to do that."
Very true this. End of the 90s, I was top notch to debuger things in C and some other languages ... Used to even spot mistakes that would compile differently and therefore give different results on different systems ...
The Irony is, the then Paris area market thought that only lowly paid juniors should do coding and therefore I had the same salary for years ... No raise.
I then quit development entirely to become a highly paid consultant ...
I'd like to think I'll retire and start debugering again :) Would be cool.
