Comment on Hackers: Intern for the Summer, Get Paid for a Yearparent

Because its a shitty deal. A good developer wouldn't take it.

Plenty of smart people will take unpaid internships because they really like the company and because the position fits their lifestyle in between school years. You just implied they were subpar developers.

The two lowest-paid positions I've taken (obviously not counting the zero-salary founder role) were the two most lucrative --- in straight up dollar terms --- in my career to date.
