Good. Now that I have your attention,
Learnemy is hiring a developer and here are 6 reasons why you
should join:
- Learnemy has a purpose for the society
http://www.blog.learnemy.com/kpi/ . I have a big vision.
- You will be treated with respect, and like an adult. No monkeys
around here.
- You get to make key decisions in the startup.
- You get a competitive salary.
- Flexible hours. I respect the maker’s schedule.
- You get to operate like a founder but enjoy the stability of an
employee.
The codes for beta are written in rails, but I'll ditch them for a
suitable python or php developer.
If you are reading this, you probably want to see details of the job.

PS: Kitty dies if there are no replies.

My thoughts exactly. The natural move is away from Rails and onto Groovy/Grails ;)

But it is a good question. I find people's salary expectations are all over the shop. Everything from thinking that "aspiring to 4k" is perfect for developers (surprising, seems many devs put ^themselves^ in this pidgeonhole), to others who are realising we're all competing with a global shortage of good devs, and the sky is the limit.
Immediately makes me think we need some way of crowd-sourcing the community's views and actual experience. There are salary comparison sites out there (like http://www.salary.com/ and http://www.payscale.com/ ) but I haven't really checked them out to see if they have good data on local conditions and the specific job roles we are talking about.
Does anyone know of a suitable salary comparison site? Even if it is short on local data, maybe we can direct a community effort to get the data in. Key for me would be that it needs to represent both sides of the equation - the employer and employee expectations and actual salaries. In the absence of an existing site, maybe unleash a surveymonkey, eek-eek?
Thoughts?

i can only reiterate how great this approach worked for us using angularjs + restful json backend (both with rebol+cheyenne and nodejs+express)
im saying this after dealing with rails/merb/sinatra stuff for a few yrs.
maybe we should come together for an angular + express hacking workshop…
cake, django, rails/sinatra devs should come with examples and we could live code it on the projector.
we can also try to drive the same frontend with each other's backend written in php/python/ruby. how about that? :)
it's really time to step to the next level!

Not to mention that client and backend can evolve relatively independently of each other.

put off people who may be the right passion/product fit but don't code
in rails. :)
And... +1 for workshop!
How do workshops like this work? Do you guys use an existing app, rip
it apart and build it up or more like building a new thing from
scratch?

the angular mailing list actually has very good examples of such isolated little problems.
ppl usually post a jsfiddle page which showcases the logic of a technique / trick / pattern.
one latest example: http://jsfiddle.net/bluejade/EnRPc/30/

I realized that perhaps I shouldn't be so concerned if a developer is
based in Singapore or not, since I'll be communicating mainly via
Skype anyway. So yea, friendly programmers in the Southeast Asia (so
our time zone don't differ too much) are welcome to apply for a full
time job with Learnemy.
Repeating myself, Learnemy is hiring a developer and here are 6
http://www.blog.learnemy.com/kpi/ . I have a big vision.

around here.
- You get to make key decisions in the startup.
