Am I the only one bothered by all this "per hour" talk? What prevents a 50-NIS-per-hour consultant from telling you he worked for 4 hours on your problem, which it actually took him just one hour in his lab? Or a 200-NIS-per-hour consultant from finding your problem in 10 minutes, because he solved exactly this problem a week ago or wrote the necessary code already? So how is the "price per hour" a meaningful variable when comparing two consultants? -- Nadav Har'El | Monday, Nov 14 2011, n...@math.technion.ac.il |----------------------------------------- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |Cats aren't clean, they're just covered http://nadav.harel.org.il |with cat spit. _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
