Measure or estimate? What ways? Honest question, because virtually all AI discussions _convieniently_ become vague a few steps short of actually answering the question.
Willing to relocate: I can fly to work on-site for short periods of time
Technologies: mainly PHP (Symfony, PHPUnit, Behat, Doctrine, Composer, XDebug), and C++ (including C++11 and further), MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MongoDB, git, memcache, Redis, RabbitMQ, Varnish, nginx/Apache, have knowledge and willing to grow further with Java, Go, Ruby. I'd prefer to stay on backend but I know JavaScript, some Angular and React, HTML(5), CSS(3), developed several DOM-heavy Chrome extensions on my own.

Focused on software quality and long-term maintainability, my contributions saved weeks of work by providing complete solutions to underlying problems.

I created shortcode engine for PHP, already battle-tested: https://github.com/thunderer/Shortcode . I'm proud of it because it's well engineered and it is not copied from WordPress nor it relies on WP.
Why clueless and lazy? We know the strengths and weaknesses of PHP and other programming languages. Thing is, while we really do appreciate what others offer it's still easier / cheaper / better (choose whichever sounds good to you) to "import" good ideas from <insert language> than to change whole stack.
Please help @chrisblizzard or @dweekly or anyone in charge or at least tell me what happened:
I can't access FB Developers site (can't browse any app, read-only bugs section - can't subscribe or comment). Can't give you app IDs, but can you look at userId: 100000522453817? I'm getting response:
"App creation failed Our automated systems have temporarily blocked you from creating new applications. If you think this is an error, send us your feedback."
I didn't get any mail with information or something, just blocked dev account and nothing else. I'm a developer and such problem directly affects my workflow.
Even in financial / tax software it is possible to create an abstraction in which you can safely write English code and move all specific terms into some i18n module. Of course if you are not clever enough to do that it's not that bad to use /required/ language, but in this case we talk about strictly technical tool for database modeling, so no excuses - it definitely needs to be translated in order to be accessible for other GitHubbers.
