The dead end of Russian software engineer?

Покритикуйте, пожалуйста :)

Ex-USSR has got a great school of engineers. Russia is the 3rd software outsourcing country (market) in the world.
Russian (let’s use the name, though I’m Ukrainian, for instance) engineers are very educated and think out of the box.

We got OOP gurus, Java buddhas, UI Picassos, Haskell Lamas, agile addicts and tech team management professionals. Even some good business analysts.

This leads them nowhere. Most of them don’t have a decent area to apply their superior skills.

Now on free CDN

Thanks to Dreamhost, now running on CloudFlare CDN.
WP Super Cache happily supports it.

BTW CloudFlare got a free plan, and it’s easy to set up so that it doesn’t interfere:

  • Add a cdn subdomain to your hosting;
  • Add your domain to CloudFlare;
  • On CloudFlare, disable CDN for all subdomains except for cdn.
  • Set up your site to serve static content from cdn.*. Do it by hand, by mod_rewrite or whatever — I am using WordPress “WP Super Cache” plugin here.
