On my third hip, if that helps clarify matters?

Jake the Peg?

Not sure it was actually a leg.......

[WTFH]

Yes indeed the modal average of legs per person is 2

but not the mean

and unless someone has more than 2 legs the median will not exist.

Doesn't sound too catastrophic to me. Remember, these are averages and the average person has 1.999 legs. Rebrand yourself a consultant and charge a day rate of £1k. Sorted.

Not correct. The average person has 2 legs.
The average number of legs a person has may well be 1.999.

Scooter fluffed the thread, so that much is a given.

He had just come off his job as night porter at the Heathrow Thistle.

You don't get the full picture.

Anybody who has got 25+ Java experience should be ok

[TwoWolves]

You don't get the full picture.

Java development is dead.

You need to be a java developer who puts his code into docker containers and deploys it into kubernetes on the cloud with dev/ops pipelines to get the good rates.

Multi-skills, that's where it's at.

Stone me, this one almost needed the Glomar Challenger to dredge it up.

Germany, UK but also anyone who asks me my rate gets this as an answer and it works. If including expenses then it goes down to around €70. (You need to call yourself a consultant or systems programmer. Normal programmers are looking at around half that.)

I thought they'd rebranded us as systems engineers in europe, in my experience.
but, hey, -a rose by any other name

[scooterscot]

You guys are coining it in. Almost 15 years later and working for less than half of before despite the increased costs of inflation. Greece has faster wage inflation than the UK in the past decade. Talk about a shafting
