This is my variation on the "Hiring Developers" theme. And this is what happened when I posted it on Joel's Business of Software forum. Before you get too excited and mad I refer you to ZOO(1) and ZOO(2).
Read my article, read the comments and then decide what you think about it.
Or may be you might wanna do it the other way round. Read the article and decide what you think first, then see the comments various people made and compare your thought process to that of other common people.
I particularly need your negative comments and criticism. They are my means of self-improvement. Usually when people don't like you or don't like what you say they walk the other way; they ignore you. Please, if you don't like what I think on this topic (or other topics) be kind enough and let me know why. I'll be grateful if you do that. Don't worry, it's very difficult to get me mad or offended. You see, I am pretty much used to negative criticism :-D so I've got over the "I'll get you for that, you son of an internet witch" phase.
Warm Regards
