You're de-skilling yourself by remaining outside the market-place. What's going to happen if your project fails?

So far its very succeessful, so much that in a few months I might just close it to new participants or have a queue of them.

As for what I will tell the interviewer then I am not bothered Spod -- I am not planning on being interviewed for a job ever again, and so far I stuck to my plans -- meanwhile better go brush up your CV with mad skillz you have Spod.

To be honest, I can't think of a better way to spend a year. Lucky bastard.



You're Spod? Crikey

WS, for the extra £5 I'll be anyone they want me to be...

[WageSlave]

Oh, right then, so you've really spent 12 months wan-king your savings away.... very industrious..."

AtW, everyone knows that I'm Spod so what's the difference?

You're Spod? Crikey

[The Late, Great JC]

And how exactly am I de-skilling myself? The best way to learn skills is to try to do a very hard project that stresses all aspects -- I have certainly learnt about .NET and performance optimisation more than I would have otherwise.

Anyhow Spod, you can feck off -- your pityful digs have no effect on me and I am only posting this to express my contempt at someone who is too much of a coward to post under his own name.

You're de-skilling yourself by remaining outside the market-place. What's going to happen if your project fails? You're going to turn up at an interview and be asked "So, you've spent 12 months developing a search engine... Who for? Oh, yourself... Oh, right then, so you've really spent 12 months wan-king your savings away.... very industrious..."

AtW, everyone knows that I'm Spod so what's the difference? The real reason that you posted a reply is because sad as it may seem, other than Mr Patel at the Off-License, this is the only social interaction you have.

It's exactly because I get this reaction from you that I post my pityful little digs...

Spod - In "Another pityful little dig" mode!

It's a damn shame we have this immediate ticking off in the mind about how people sound. On the other hand, how many people really want to be operated upon by a surgeon who talks broad cockney?

The only thing you can't do is work as part of a team you sad social reject.

Good for AtW (that's three) I'd say. Us sad social rejects should stick together.

Teamwork! Pah!!! If the biggest projects I have ever worked on are anything to go by,

useful outcome = k * 1/ (number of people involved ** 396,473,782)

I have no idea what atw is up to, whether it works, whether it will ever make money, whether or not it total bollux, whether he is a totally deranged reincarnation of Rasputin, but have not the slightest doubt it is worth 10 million crappy things that can possibly result from teamwork. Spit!!!!

PS Spod??? But there are no posts by spod! Aaaah! DJC is spod? Is this what you found out from your gif bomb? Are you sure? From the little he does say, I would have put DJC a few IQ points above and many feet (by now) above spod.

PPS Why not ask the question on the Ebay developer's forum or is that too obvious?

[AtW]

Looks like Arsenal fan there -- or is it Man Unt?

[MarillionFan]

You Invented!!!!



Freddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quick question what is SKA?

Its God.

[Chico]

Super Killer Application aka the next big thing

[boredsenseless]

If I could make SKA, I can program anything else.

Sorry

Quick question what is SKA?

It still doesn't change the fact that you are slowly but surely de-skilling yourself.

And how exactly am I de-skilling myself? The best way to learn skills is to try to do a very hard project that stresses all aspects -- I have certainly learnt about .NET and performance optimisation more than I would have otherwise.

Anyhow Spod, you can feck off -- your pityful digs have no effect on me and I am only posting this to express my contempt at someone who is too much of a coward to post under his own name.

Ebay

Anyone actually done any programming on this. I had a look at the SDK and was wondering what type of software you could knock up.

I also got a password finder for the Access databases for Turbo Lister. How does Ebay interact with this - or is this a purely read only situation.

Ie. Lets mess with the Ebay Fees structure maybe?

5 Minutes

ATW you've blown it. I would have given you a twenty quid for the solution if you'd knocked it up for me. Think of it ....£20 - you're first money as a contractor!!!!

[The Late, Great JC]

I've done that.

I've even drawn the schematic diagram, laid out the pcb, etched it, assembled all the components, powered it up, debugged the hardware and written the embedded software.

and got home in time for tea.

3 months later.

Threaded could've done it in 5 minutes - and that's without the need for his time machine!

Right, off home via the pub.
