Web Development

Haha :P I started here 6 months ago, salaried at ~$40k. However we also regularly have lunches on the office, free fruit, our broadband (up to $46/mo) is paid for us, also yo uget an extra ~$400 for being 'on call' once every 7 weeks or so.

and obviously private medical care after a year

company takes care of us, and give I was earning in sep 2013, a $14k jump in 2 years (going from junior level to mid level) is pretty good IMO

Not bad indeed.

How is Wales for engineers anyway? Any companies around or do they all migrate?

My work pays my entire internet bill (regardless of cost) and cell bill (again, regardless of cost). Though, we have less of the 'free-stuff' perks.

And I'm not really Jr., Mid or Sr. level. I am the only one here who does this stuff.

Primary, secondary and tertiary programming.

Mast

That automatically makes you Sr.

EBrown

As well as security complaining.

Because I'm anal about some of the security stuff.

@Mast Does it though? All it means is that I am capable of working on my own, it doesn't imply my ability to delegate/project manage.

Sr. Level implies the ability to manage and maintain a project.

Whereas I really don't do a lot of that, I am strictly code.

Mast

True.

EBrown

That said, it does also imply that I don't need a lot of management to make the project get done.

Anyone still alive in here?

function runNextMethod(query)
{
    if(nextMethodIndex<methodOrder.length)
    {
         console.log("TimeOut:", parseInt(query.TimeOut));
         setTimeout(func, query.TimeOut);
    }
}

The `console.log` prints just fine, but the setTimeout throws `Cannot read property
'TimeOut' of undefined`

And I have no clue why...

Should I make it a SO question or am I just doing something stupid here?

Q: Server lost it's property

My Node.JS HTTP server handles a GET request with JSON query by invoking runNextMethod. This function gets url_parsed.query as argument. function runNextMethod(query) { if(nextMethodIndex<methodOrder.length) { var func = myDict[myList[nextMethodIndex]]; console.log("Nex...

@Mast: RE wales for programming, lots of .NET, not much else.

And when I say lots I mean lots - my company gave up on finding a permanent .NET dev because there are so many jobs here and had to hire a contractor

Also WRT sr/jr/mid, I';m the only person in my team that actually programs front end web stuff, no one else is experienced in it. I wouldn't say that makes me a senior :p
