Why are you even commenting? And it's Railway not raleway.

Should you be paid equal to someone coming out of uni? I don't think so, the ramp-up will be hard and longer for the bootcamps guys, but this will change as you gain experience, after 5 years the difference in pay should be negligible if you properly ramp up!
I think you voiced the deadlock issue pretty well.
Of course you can do that but you enter another level of negotiation because you are quitting and it might not even count toward the budget at this point. I would not recommend doing that every year as a negotiation tactic either.
I tend to agree with Redwards, and unless you are working in a small company if you do your job correctly it becomes more a political game than anything else.
I'm surprised OP is not aware that's the kind of sending that can raise a lot of red flags, before doing something like this on a new account I would have contacted support to make them aware of this situation.
Specially on smaller senders, reputation is everything.
One preferable idea would be to use notification channels that would reduce significantly the noise you receive from your pairs. I speak at length about the idea here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/channels-best-way-handle-inte...
It's awesome!.. Until you have to deal with the cold start issue. Our first call takes about 1.5 seconds; and then all other calls take about 50-80ms.
Your container stays in cache about 5-10 minutes unless it is called back, there are no guarantees.
This micro service is not called often and for us 1.5 seconds is never acceptable.
Unfortunately I can't agree that you can easily find easily good IOS & Android devs, I'm sure that some that can do it out there, but generally one platform always suffers more.
Has for Cordova issues, from my experience, nothing was so atrocious that writing 2 apps would have been faster.
"Either you use frameworks and everything is just bad or use vanilla JS and everything might work"
I think you might be thinking about games saying that, again I can't agree, if you don't understand what your framework does in your back that's another thing, but you can easily write optimized code when you control your render.
For example Ionic is a very good mobile UI framework for angular. It however wont save you if you start adding random things to the DOM while doing an animation.
The question is also what can you afford. Can you afford to have 2 ios & 2 android devs? Can you afford to build 2 times all the UI features, etc.
For a small company, small budgets, if you have strong front-end devs & designers you are probably going to get a good cordova app & you can move your company much faster.
You have big bugdets? Hire the native devs, get the 100% performance & experience from native.
Angular does not. It's an awkward black box.
I can open the source code of backbone & understand everything it's doing. Using a simpler stack makes the code more timeless, any competent js dev is able to continue my work. Pretty sure you can't say the same with your angular app.
I also think web designer should have a basic understanding of css & html,
but too many time I saw average web dev saying no to a designer because, well they did not care or did not know how to do it. If you start limiting yourself you limit what the designer can create.
Another thing is now there are tools to make PSD to HTML much faster like CSSHAT that provide you with the exact CSS for each element of your design.
Also, designing in photoshop make design iterations much faster. By the time you design directly into html&css a design I could have iterated 2 times & have a much better end product.
I'm not saying Photoshop is the tool for web design, there is place to be taken there, but tools like photoshop & sketch makes design works go much faster.
Why jQuery is so much used even today? It's in big part because of the very low level of entry.
Grunt for most teams is a config file that manage front-end builds, you go at the end of the file you have all the tasks available for that project.
It's easy to understand & it's solid.
Is there a place for gulp? Probably, node.js dev teams will love it, but in teams that are more traditional I think grunt will win.
It's the society (government) that pays for leaves. In canada it looks like this: the parental benefit is 7 weeks at 70%, followed by 25 weeks at 55% from salary on a maximum of 50-60k salary
For me what you say is backwards, but I guess you are right, there is clearly no gain in life for a mother to take the time she need to adapt & connect with her children for a year.
Then again it is the poors that suffer that cannot in anyway take some time off from work. Or maybe it is the argument that you should not pay for others.
I guess you can keep being skeptical
My app have perfect smooth transitions in the chrome browser. yet in the phonegap webview animations are slower & I have rendering bugs I never saw in chrome.
Can't find direct sources right now, but it's fixed in android 4.4, you get chrome

The app is only has good has the html5 app behind it. On android it's tricky, we just did a test run for our mobile app & we have weird issues with a lot is samsung phones while other phones perform perfectly.
We also decided to remove animations on android for all phones below android 4.2 because the browser was to slow to handle them perfectly.
I also saw people with lot's of issues with long list & jquery mobile while looking but since it's a framework that basically can be use by anyone I guess I should have expected that some people would submit unoptimized apps with jQuery mobile.
The homepage look very nice but I had pretty much the same issues as you. ---
Frankly I built my own UI because I didn't like the opaque layer most mobile web framework are doing (exception being jQtouch but it's pretty old). It's not "that hard".
It's also bound to angular out of the box. While that's great for people using that framework, it's a big learning curve for anyone else.
Walmart & target is starting to get more & more in canada & have a very pervert effect on the economy,
while it drive down the price a bit & also make all supermarkets cut costs, which mean trying to cut cost on employes, price they pay food & etc.
Customers win a bit, but all the rest loose a lot.
I really do not feel this is great, it even feel a bit sneaky
I would MUCH prefer they buy the laptop & keep it when I'm gone. A 2-3 years old laptop is no use to me when I leave the company.
Specially since upgrading the air cpu (& being still less powerful) puts you roughly at the same price.
Is that for help mobile browser, it's just weird to me, I just want to see the image and it seems to be affecting my scroll at times.
This is much more valuable than any list of company you work for.
I currently learning it the hard way with a mobile app/framework I created. My biggest problem is managing views cleanup, beside that I find that backbone provide me with what I need to create a simple app.
The other thing is, when you start creating an app with backbone for the first time, you really don't know what lies ahead as far as memory management goes. It's really not something you expect to have to debug that at 3 weeks from launch.
This always comes back to the same arguments, we had this conversation multiple times now. Yes native is better, but you can still build a good quality app with html compatible of multiple platforms, specially if your app is only a text crud.
But in the case of Appcelerator they seems to certainly do not want open technology like html5 to win & prefer selling their tech.
Compare that to something like shopify, it's a much simpler product, maybe an e-commerce idea can be taken from this..
