About the author.

I’m Joel Spolsky, founder of Fog Creek Software, a New York company that proves that you can treat programmers well and still be highly profitable. Programmers get private offices, free lunch, and work 40 hours a week. Customers only pay for software if they’re delighted. We make FogBugz, an enlightened project management system designed to help great teams develop brilliant software, Kiln, which provides distributed version control and code reviews, and Fog Creek Copilot, which makes remote desktop access easy. I’m also the co-founder of Stack Overflow.
