I have very limited info about Uruguay and I appreciate it if someone could help me and provide more details about the situation there

Why do you think that the cultural capital of a certain social group is completely isolated and detached from their income level or past history of economic affluence or wellbeing?

What I find from my observations and unbiased reading is that rich people or people with a good track of generational prosperity have better chances to instill in their families the values of entrepreneurship and taking initiative while in poor or less fortunate families this becomes paradoxically difficult to achieve despite the seemingly urgent need to act on.

So, poor families especially the ones with a history of poverty and hardships spanning many generations back are hit on so many levels whether economically, socially or culturally and your thinly veiled attack on minorities communities and the insinuation that their culture product is the reason behind their economic hardships are not really helpful.

You would think he would put his money where his mouth is and convert all the diagrams and vector graphics into HTML/CSS but deep down he knows it's just ridiculous and excruciatingly impractical.

Someone should introduce this dude to the novel concepts of "figures of speech" and "metaphors" as he's completely clueless losing the plot.

So, I say embrace progress and let the market decide what technologies stay and what to leave behind.

Calling for deliberate stagnation for the web is intellectually disingenuous in light of the Great Web Depression during 2000 - 2005 and the following recession 2005 - 2008 right before iPhone 3G & Chrome launches followed by NodeJS and the HTML5 debut.

For all people worried about the seemingly neck-breaking rate of progress, I assure them that we will sooner or later hit some roadblocks that will slow down the progress and usher in a new era of stagnation for the industry as whole, that has been the case all along for all business and scientific, literary activities, that is the cyclical nature of human activities, but to do it on purpose and to have the audacity to advocate and brand it as a respite or out of concern for the well-being of the developers community is dishonest and totally unacceptable.

Have you tried any of the following alternative in your quest to land a job:

1- Theme marketplaces like Envato.

The competition is really fierce but you could make it and establish a name and sharpen your skills and be up to date when the latest trends and movements in our profession.

2- Kickstarter campaign to crowd-fund a technical project that you're passionate about to showcase your technical skills and expertise and as an opportunity for you to reboot your career.

Shame that these people didn't go "organic" and searched for the real deal in living in a real commune and not that synthetic one.

Your downvoting won't stop me or any other dissident here from speaking our mind and exposing the hypocrisy or ridiculousness of this type of cheap advertorials here.

Keep downvoting me, it's a badge of honor to wear on my chest :)

We call it أنجاجيه from the French word Engagee meaning engaged but this is only reserved exclusively for teens/high-schoolers who are BFFs or very close and not for every acquaintance but as you grow up you abandon those bromance/frat stuff and get tired of it.

However, holding hands incessantly and crossing fingers and stuff is frowned upon and could raise some eyebrows or suspicion in people around you.

Wasn't there one in the South during the antebellum era?

Hope that was of help to you.

Back to our subject, the pay scale that this business owner proposed is not actually socialist much less communist. It was just a communitarianist approach with centrist leaning on the right-left spectrum but these Limbaugh bots just freaked out like useful idiots that they are when they heard about this more egalitarian, considerate, humane compensation scheme barking at the business owner.

This is really pathetic and it's really disheartening to know about this silly reaction from these brainwashed people.

Finally, I must congratulate this brave guy on his ethics and I wish him all the luck even though I might have some reservations or concerns regarding infusing the workplace with political messages and using business ventures as political conduits to spread these messages about certain social causes but after all I support his decision of seeking a flatter pay scale and doing what he could to close the income inequality gap between the poor and the rich even on a micro-scale like what he did inside his organization.

As we say here, the dogs bark but the caravan moves on.

He was asking for it by shunning modern and progress in web development and instead endorsing everything that's reactionary and antiquated in the field and his latest outcry hopefully the last would be just a blip on the radar and we would be moving forward nevertheless.

Cars are in a whole new category and there are a lot of tangibles and bells and whistles that symbolize or embody a car brand where in the smartphone world it's all about smoke and mirrors and how to market your overrated stuff as the latest shiny thing to attract as many gullible people as you could to hand you their wallet.

So, no cars can't be compared to consumer electronics in terms of brand loyalty or user experience.
