The boss is a really nice guy, lets me have off any days I need and vacation plan is awesome...most the time.
But when there's a dead line he's an uncompromising SOB that demands it be done on time and right. If I get behind he makes me work ungodly hours for little or no pay and feeds me junk.
As long as I keep him happy he treats me good and stays off my assuming that everything goes right that is.

That is what I am planning to do next year - work for myself, and why not?

Not at all, it was easy getting up in the morning, by all accounts.

I couldn't afford to pay them much though...
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

Myself? I wouldn't worry about paying them.
I would simply allow their models to pleasure themselves with my . . .

Looks like we all made some jobless uni-voter jealous.

Are you saying you'd do some pro-bono work for them?

And they have contacted me in the past. Although I have good job security in the current job.

PHP ???
No, Just kidding...
I would like to work for myself (which I was doing couple of years back), and as a backup plan: Microsoft.

It's not all PHP at FB. They've done some interesting stuff with C++, if that is your thing.

Yes, They have converted some PHP code to C++ for speed up things...also that converter they have made is also open source.
I am not against the PHP, it is proven now. Facebook with 500 mil users and 60k servers (that more than eBay) is using PHP without any problem. but the syntax style will give me headache. also it is interpreted so I cannot sell my stuff easily (not in India, otherwise you just sell one copy and everyone gets it, it has to be compiled with Obfuscation).
Every time I looked at your profile, you are in different country...

Facebook is much more than just a PHP website. They don't store and process billions of image files with PHP and MySQL.
Also they didn't just convert some PHP to C++. They wrote a serious converter that takes PHP and writes C++ which is then compiled.
There is Objective C, C++, Java, Ruby, JavaScript, Python and more. I wouldn't bet against there being some Scala in there. Not sure if they use any Microsoft languages or frameworks outside of client libraries though.
They made Cassandra, Varnish and other projects. Check out their github page github.com/facebook.
p.s. I'm no fan of Facebook the service but they are a serious engineering outfit with some impressive technology behind them.

You can bytecode compile it very much like how ASP.NET compiles down to IL. It's just generally not free to do so, as such most people don't.
