Re: He made the front page of digg!

I wrote that more than a year ago, and it was popular then, but I guess it's had a bit of renewed interest. That's been my most popular article for a long time, followed by the consultant one (it's #2 when you google for "Consultant").

But reading digg it was nice to see that I'm a security wannabe:

I enjoyed the consultant article as well. As someone who sells my own software I found myself nodding my head at a lot of what you wrote.

I particularly enjoyed the part about the amount you charge being in direct relationship with your workload.

I have that same problem. If I release a popular piece of software, I can get bogged down in support and sales questions seriously stepping on my development time. I end up charging more so as to get less customers for the same (or sometimes more) money.

Good job!

Heh...I swear you could come up with a rock-solid proof of the (non)existence of a deity, invent cold fusion, and publish the grand unifying theory all in one article and snarky commenters on the web would still call you a moron.
