Joel Spolsky is an idiot

Joel Spolsky is a "software developer" residing in the New York area who have lot of readers for his blog. However, he only writes stupid things or day-to-day doodling. In one of the latest posts he lambasts simplicity and says everyone wants features. Yes users are often clueless but this is no idea to include stupid things nobody really needs. Joel, let me ask you something. When you sell a lot and lower the quality of software as a whole, don't you feel ashamed?

Joel should change his mind or not write.

Paig, it's quite simple, you and Joel want different things. He wants money, you want quality software. To make money, you need to release new versions with new features, to convince people to give you more money. If you want quality software, you refine the important aspects of your product, instead of adding more stuff all the time.

asad6352000: I worked hard and diligent over many years, then company in US realize potential and hire me. You must do same thing if you want to achieve results. However you must be intelligent, otherwise not apply.

Puterman: However, those who just want money and do stupid add-ons are shameful and should remorse. Just because you can get more dollars do not mean you're right to do whatever. Unfortunately today customers just misunderstand.

Good day, sun shines!
There have been times of troubles when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in large starting capital.
Now, I feel good, I begin take up real income.
It's all about how to select a correct partner who uses your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, and shares the profit with me.

You can get interested, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:
