You write well-crafted HTML and CSS.

You’ve built complex web applications using JavaScript libraries/frameworks like Backbone.js, Ember.js, and React; and more importantly, you have a deep understanding of what they do and how they help.

We’re looking for people who want to join a team that cares deeply about user experience and a relentless pursuit toward making things better, simpler, faster, and/or easier.

Come join us! For more info contact [email protected]

I'm so numb to this kind of pain...

Even logging in is orthogonal to session.

How about "authenticate"?

I want to change that. Are you in FW, D or in the middle?

And the elevation of those preferences to a dogmatic self-identification is a Really Big Problem. People and interactions over tools and process.

There are valid specializations for programmers. There are application developers, systems architects, UI engineers, operations specialists, cryptographers, scientific programmers, etc. You don't care that your doctor uses the Acme Scalpel 4000, you just want your gut cut.

I'm tired of these posts.

I'm tired of an industry where it's assumed that using technical tools is the skill, rather than understanding and applying technical concepts.

I'm tired of "I'm a .NET developer" or "I'm a python developer". I want a world where we're not tied to a particular framework, where people hire expert technologists and business analysts regardless of what framework they used at their last job. Where managers truly value people and interactions over tools and process.

The inhumanity and subsequent waste of it all is really piling up, and theses posts only reinforce the ignorant and shallow perception that the tools make the professional.

yes, it is a joke. and a teeny-tiny bite of prophecy.

and, by the way, the tweet is correct, i had said it before. http://twitter.com/mhinze/status/2485789965 - months before this brouhaha.
