Yes, this is a huge issue. I'm from India, specifically from one of the places ranked top in 'Cities with least cost of living'. Some of my friends with two year experience are paid less than 200$. Yes, the cost of living is low, but still the amount they receive is peanuts. And they work usually 12 hrs a day. It's really bad!!!

I love Camus too. The man who taught me to find beauty in the world around me

Amen! Plus I want to finish all the books I bought this year.

About programming/work - I want to learn a little bit of Haskell and want to change my company, I also should make sure the code I write from now on should be Test Driven to some extend

Thanks for the link. Still the presentational components have to be 2-way binded, right?

I have been working on polymer based projects for some time(8 months).

My opinion is that, polymer is good for specific use cases such as- Creating leaf level components, Reusing components around multiple projects.

BUT....

Building complete applications in Polymer has been a painful experience

I have at times encountered critical 'library bugs', which haven't been fixed yet, we had to use hacky workarounds and forked repos with fixes. Check 'p1-backlog' in github

Less control over elements because of two-way-data binding, I guess I should use redux with it. But I'm still a bit confused about certain aspects of adding redux into the mix

The application end up really heavy

I wish I had a bit more control over vulcanize

@nverba Hoi mate, Any pointers about using redux with polymer? I have been using polymer for some eight months now. I tried to implement redux in one of my components a couple of months back. But I couldn't finish it, because of the humongous refactoring work.
