    That used to be the dream: corps hired you to work on the thing they needed that you were good at. Now, though, they just want everything for free and just acquihire to reassign you to whatever makes more money.

      I think the real old big dogs like Microsoft, Google, and IBM still have a lot of dedicated developers for big projects like the Linux kernel. I doubt they bother that much with smaller projects though.
