Partner.co is looking for a Delphi dev, but I had problems using their ATS, so you might want to contact them and ask for a way to email your resume instead.

Don't use that, I had problems with that. I received an email for me to schedule an interview and it didn't work. The company didn't call at either of the times specified. Also, the options to confirm, say thanks, and whatever resulted in a mailer daemon error. Don't provide any information until you speak with someone. I think Craig Kinney is the contact for that position.

Do they have to already be in Denmark or will you relocate the right person?

But, you don't want anyone to contact you?

It's a pretty good book, a lot of language type stuff. With low/no code being the focus today (again), look at component based development and generating most of your code. Learning to write all the basic code patterns before becoming productive at app development is a waste these days. If you study all the low-level stuff, you'll end up finding yourself on programming forums fighting about how to shave one clock-cycle off of a 10,000 line module. Also, as you have already learned, ten years will go by and your app still won't be ready for release.

The reason I started using Delphi was the RAD approach. Now with no-code low-code being new buzzwords, where does Delphi stand on that front?

A thousand dollars in U.S. currency.

Isn't it crazy what goes on these days in recruiting? Companies complain, but then won't change their approach. I've offered to take on $150K/yr roles for $120K/yr. Now, I only have part-time hours to assign to Delphi work. But still, companies don't take advantage of the opportunity to find out if I would be a good addition to their project, by spending just a few bucks for part-time help.

Not many intelligent people would.

I like the effort, Jim!

lol How many beers did you have for breakfast?

Would someone please identify the company in Atlanta, GA that is looking for a hybrid (2 days on-site and 3 days remote) Delphi person? Then help them find someone! Recruiters are posting dozens of copies of that job ad. It's like babysitting kids and they are all yelling for candy at the same time.

There is tons of information on a resume. People harvest them by the hundreds, then share the data. Also, some places pay for each resume that is uploaded to their database. Simply... Run an ad and have people upload their resume and you get paid for doing nothing but running the ad and waiting.

That's correct, it's been getting worse for years. Most of the legit ones I know have left the industry. I still know a small number that use the old style approach and are doing good, but not great. They spend long hours doing things manually to protect their reputation, while the scammers get rich scamming.

It means there is a company that is looking for a Delphi developer and there are bunches of shyster recruiters copying and posting that company's job ad in the hopes of harvesting resumes. We need to find someone to help that company, so that they can produce good software and be successful. These shysters give the hiring company a bad reputation and make it hard for quality recruiters to do their job!

Come on guys... Alien abduction is funny. No one has a response to that?

Well... Labor is always under attack from people who can't contribute to a company but still need to make themselves look useful. Programmers are now viewed as labor, software developers not so much. I've seen people from HR moved into the role of UX/UI designer, with no experience or training. Great projects with no barnacles are very hard to find.

OK, so I'm going to contact area 51 and let them know that Jake and Ryan have been abducted by aliens.

Respond asking him to call you and talk about the application domain. That usually eliminates the recruiters that copy job postings.

What up?! You and Ryan have disappeared. You guys still kick'in it?

Anyone know anything about this one: Next Gen It West Pittsburg, PA I don't know of anyone in west Pittsburgh, PA looking for Delphi people.

BTW, I can't seem to get Evisions to answer their phone. I've called at different times during the day.

You're telling me! Oh my, the US is looking terrible these days.

The only thing I know of is a charging order redirects LLC distributions of a debtor. Is there a specific example you can give me other than that?

1. Yep, that's why I brought it up. 2. I have no idea why some shops won't hire with pass-thru taxation. It's a taxation issue and having employees working on contracts won't affect those contracts even with pass-thru taxation. Also, it's not required that an LLC opt into pass-thru. It can be taxed as a corp. 3. An LLC is a separate legal entity, used by both small and large companies. Some of the largest companies on the planet use LLCs. Hiring agency? Why would I need them if I can B2B the contract and just have the client write me a check like any other B2B arrangement?
