Wow! What a mistake. Thank you for pointing it out. When writing the post I was going to make a reference to Edison and I later delete it. Therefore the mistake. Sorry for that. It’s been corrected.

You lost me at Thomas Edison inventing the telephone. If you get one fact completely wrong I am wary to trust anything else…

It would be interesting to see the kind of productivity they devs have after the “immersion” period.

I think that combination male and female increase the motivation of the experience, no problem about it.Alex, I want to talk with you…by mail or by chat about a Project – Idea that I have for a Website.I am a experienced web developer, pioneer in writing about the Internet In Colombia, since 1994.

In a Perfect World I will code for hours .. days .. probably months … BUT I’m married !! .. so .. I will try to keep it 8 hours per day, no matter my boss want me to code for 20 hrs per day !!! .. But hey !, Fortunately there is a lot of new single developers out there, so I think it could work … But be careful, you can not mix males with females for 40 days … without some significant “distractions”

Thank you Alberto! I don’t know the details about the salaries of Eric’s team, but I would assume that he has deep pockets and money wasn’t a significant issue.I would guess that he paid them the equivalent of several months of work plus very attractive stock options.
