The programmers who attend a full-time job here, how did you get to your current position? With what prior knowledge did you apply and which other achievements helped you to pass?

Yours truly, Anonymous.

USD10k per year. I'm in one of your outsourced locations in Asia. Nobody gets overtime pay and everyone whines but shuts up and work lest you're replaced from the hoard of fresh grads.

>Dot.Net doesn't have it

.Net does have it to a degree. In 2.0 90 Types and 1145 type members are marked obsolete, but are left in for the sake of compatibility. But they don't sacrifice correctly implementing features for the sake of backwards compatibility.
