Does he really charge $1000/hour or is it a joke I didn't get? http://hire.samsoff.es/

edit: explanation http://soff.es/one-thousand-dollars-an-hour

By that rate and the 800-hour figure, Cheddar would be one of the most expensive apps ever (utility vs cost).

The best sentences on that page are

> This rate is designed to weed out less serious clients. Serious clients generally have more exciting projects. I'd rather not freelance. I need to focus on Cheddar.

I guess now that he's no longer focussing on Cheddar he can lower his rate.

He works full-time at Seesaw now.
Thats funny. You must not work in the 'apps for government agencies' space. :)
I imagine in that space most of the money evaporates into the machine, instead of going to a single person.
