Imo, it is both off-topic and inappropriate.
Moreover, I have not seen your name in any of the topics on this list or

There are many channels out there that would be beneficial to your

which the subject made pretty clearly, use common sense and ignore such mails if
they don't interest you.

Moreover, I have not seen your name in any of the topics on this list or 


hadn't seen yours either, at least Rawat is a real name. and for the record he 
has
posted 2 more messages to the list than you have this year (your massive 
contribution
ammounts to 7 posts since Nov'07) ... Rawat's first post started with the words
'Newbie Problem' so he's indentified himself as a beginner and therefore it's in
everyone's interest that he do alot more reading (and asking questions) rather
than replying to other's questions with the limited knowledge he has atm.

remembered it in any reply, as opposed to many others who take time from 
their busy schedules to give something back, free of charge. This does 
not inspire much confidence in your qualities or determination.

He's looking for a little off-list help for which he is apparently willing
to offer some kind of compensation ... plenty of other's have done the same in 
the
past, some of us occasionally even take people up on their offer and I've 
actually
earned more dollars that way than you've posted words to this list.

Seems to me you either have a pathetic grasp of the english language or you
can't be bothered to read.

questions) rather

than replying to other's questions with the limited knowledge he has atm.
You must really have nothing better to do than to look up statistics on 
posting behaviour. Slow day ? :)


I stand by my point though. Had it actually been an advert, which it was 
not, a post count of 9 would not inspire confidence in his qualities as 
a determined support engineer.

earned more dollars that way than you've posted words to this list.

Seems to me you either have a pathetic grasp of the english language

It seems daft to judge someone based on their contribution to a public  
voluntary mailing list, especially if you just look at the numbers.  
Most job ads we get on this list come from people who've never posted  
before, but that doesn't make them any less worthy of a look if you're  
in the market.

--end


So, I thought that I might also utilize similar help against humble 
payments.


No, it is not my school homework. I don't study - I mean, not any more. :-)

I am a surviving dinosaur of DOS/GWBasic/ Pascal/ Fortran/ Cobol/ 
dBASEIII/ foxpro and unix days when windows and Linux were not born. I 
am (was) a master of procedural languages but then my ratbrain couldn't 
grasp 4GLs if you know that early 90s term.


I then learned HTML and bits of Perl, Java and Javascript, but I get 
scared by their vastness and can do only elementary half page coding in 
them.


I work by freelancing - bidding and getting jobs on net sites, getting 
paid for them. My own areas are Translation, Transcription, MS Office, 
Excel, HTML. But, nowadays nothing is working in isolation. e.g., go to 
that site, extract 200 pages of data, only this-this-this fields, save 
that in csv file and open that in excel, do such and such processing on 
this and this field of the data and arrange the results in such format, 
convert that to pdf and send the pdf to me. whoosh!


Stumbling blocks:
- foxpro 2.6 has been rendered obsolete even by its makers. I had never 
even looked into its Visual counterpart.


- perl is manageable, but PerlScript doesn't work in Firefox.

- PerlScript is working in ie, but greasemonkey ready scripts and ff's 
wealth of extensions don't work in ie.


- I have been told that JavaScript is not able to save things on hdd.

so on. Wherever I start, something comes up that stumps me and I loose 
another project.


I was surprised to see PHP becoming increasing popular for web related 
work. Clients are mentioning php by name. I thought that I could manage 
it with my Perl/ CGI bits of knowledge. I installed win WAMP Server 2.0 
and everything else is working fine but php refused to work on my box. 
Even if it starts working, i wouldn't be able to become a master of it 
overnight. I inquired about command line processor or javascript like 
shell of php, but seems there are none.


Why not ask for unpaid help here?

Well, the usual culture in techy ng-s/ ml-s is NO-SPOONFEEDING. If I ask 
questions here, members would surely help me but would ask me to read 
such and such webpage or manual and tryout this and that command. When 
the client is sitting on my head through the other end of chat window 
threatening to cancel the project and even forfeit expert guarantee 
amount committed by me,

2008-08-19 Thread Stut

Sorry for the top-post, and please don't be offended by the following...

Much as you would probably like to think it's a good business model,  
bidding low for projects and then expecting other developers to help  
you for even less is not sustainable. I appreciate your position but  
you need to understand that freelance PHP developers charge what they  
do because that's what the market will pay.


I've recently taken on 2 PHP contractors and even though there's only  
20 GBP difference in their daily rates one is miles better than the  
other, to the point where I'm having to check everything the slightly  
cheaper one is doing and I've found a number of killer bugs that would  
have caused major issues had they gone live. The point I'm making is  
that you get what you pay for and you're kinda illustrating why.  
Unfortunately the general market out there doesn't value quality over  
it works so the gap between the excellent and the downright awful is  
pretty small.


The bottom line is that you shouldn't be taking on work that either  
you can't do or you can't afford to sub-contract. Appealing to the  
community for cheap help is just not cricket!


You wouldn't go broke on not getting such amounts - every penny  
counts when you're a freelancer, as does every minute. Some will be  
able to afford to lose a few dollars here and there due to non- 
payment, but others (in fact the ones likely to take up your offer if  
you can find any) probably can't.


I hope you take this the way it's intended - as some friendly advice -  
and not as an attack of any kind. I applaud anyone who's embarking on  
a freelance career since it's a pretty risky route to take, but you  
need to approach it in a sustainable way if it's going to be a  
success. If you can make a success of freelancing you can do very well  
out of it so I wish you the best of luck.

I would be bidding low? Where did I say that?

Currently I am not at all bidding on those projects as I know I wouldn't 
be able to do them. Once I know that I will get help where I get stuck 
doing them, I would very much bid. And bid high as well.


 and then expecting other developers to help you

When you say expecting others, it sounds as if I have invoked some 
11th commandment that php developers must help me. Nothing like that. 
It was an offer to help me on email against tiny gesture payments that 
would at most fetch a glass of beer, just like your friends give you a 
tiny treat when you help them out in something.


  for even less

again. even less implies that there is some high rate at which a php 
member would help people, and I am pleading to him to help me at a rate 
lower than that. Nothing like that. Firstly, there is no rate for 
helping in this ng. It is all free. Secondly, I don't think anybody here 
bother to negotiate payments with anyone against help. I thought someone 
would help me and would get a tiny unasked payment. As I quoted, Java ng 
is already doing it. May be, php ng would also do it some day.


 is not sustainable.

no problemo. Then I wouldn't be able to do it through php. I would start 
using java or other languages in which somebody could help me.


I appreciate your position but  
you need to understand that freelance PHP developers charge what they  
do because that's what the market will pay.


They can continue charging that. Where am I coming in picture? I can't 
afford their rates so I can't use their professional help. If I get 
help, I would bid against those freelance PHP developers in the same 
range and market would absorb me also.




I've recently taken on 2 PHP contractors and even though there's only  
20 GBP difference in their daily rates one is miles better than the  
other, to the point where I'm having to check everything the slightly  
cheaper one is doing and I've found a number of killer bugs that would  
have caused major issues had they gone live. The point I'm making is  
that you get what you pay for and you're kinda illustrating why.  


I understand quality. I don't intend to do shabby job for my clients. I 
need php veterans, that is why I posted this thread here.


 Unfortunately the general market out there doesn't value quality over
 it works so the gap between the excellent and the downright awful is
 pretty small.

No, no. Worry not on this account. One can't make-believe in code 
development. It either runs or doesn't run. Nobody can create a fake 
code that gives appearance of running and producing output but actually 
doing nothing really.




The bottom line is that you shouldn't be taking on work that either  
you can't do or you can't afford to sub-contract. Appealing to the  
community for cheap help is just not cricket!


Nobody is appealing. Nobody mentioned cheap rate as if seeking discount.

There are freelancer somewhere. Of course, several regulars of this ng 
must be doing freelancing elsewhere and earning good money.


But I am sure that this ng has several veterans who don't do 
freelancing. They are here helping other just due to their passion for 
php and due to their helpful nature. If they start freelancing, they 
would also earn good money, but freelancing needs its own commitments 
and overheads that they might not feel like bothering about due to their 
existing commitments. I come handy for them. I chase the projects, I 
bid, I commit, I interact with clients. The php veteran here wouldn't 
need to go into all that. but he would just give reply to my one or two 
emails, may be jot down 5 lines of code and send to me, and he is done. 
Remaining work is still upon me to finish and to feed to the client.


So, the php veteran still has his existing free life, and he just spend 
5 minutes for me. I thought that some of you might find it worth giving 
a thought.




You wouldn't go broke on not getting such amounts - every penny  
counts when you're a freelancer, as does every minute. Some will be  
able to afford to lose a few dollars here and there due to non- 
payment, but others (in fact the ones likely to take up your offer if  
you can find any) probably can't.


Tch. I was just telling that even in the worst case when all your fears 
come true and I run away with your $20, you will still have all you 
have. The purpose of writing it was not to confess that I would do it, 
but to say that I wouldn't do it as it would make me loose your further 
help.




I hope you take this the way it's intended - as some friendly advice -  
and not as an attack of any kind. I applaud anyone who's embarking on  
a freelance career since it's a pretty risky route to take, but you  
need to approach it in

I have not kept up on this thread -- too lengthily and too confusing.

If you need help, just ask.

If you need paid help, I charge $50 per hour.

Oops.

Apparently my length of freelancing hasn't been enough to teach me 
the difference between OFF_LIST and NOT.


But, to drive my point further home, I got underwear older than most 
of you. :-P

You might want to charge more so you can afford new underwear ;)

There is such a thing as too much information you know. I'm going to be

Uh doodyou might want to do a little shopping once in a while. I
think I may be the 2ns oldest on the board and I buy new underwear once
a year whether I need it or not.

Lovecraft! nice one :-)

Hey Tedd, not sure I needed underwear info but it got me thinking,
we could start using it as a metric for hacking experience ... my guess
my guess is I measure about third of a pair of Tedd's Y-fronts, 1/3TYF ;-)

I'm assume they have to be Y-Fronts if they're that old, lol.

@Stut: good points about freelancing, it's also worth noting that a freelancer
charging 'top dollar' will probably not end up costing anymore than someone
charging half as much because they generally get the job done in half the time 
and,
as Stut pointed out, they're liable to deliver stuff that you can rely on rather
than have to pray it works.

I only took a few psychology courses in university so my ability to help
you is limited. But I guess it's better than nothing... even if my focus
was on the rather generous portion of girls in those classes compared to
the stingy numbers experience in my comp sci courses :B
