See it as "package A" and "package B". What it is opinion of your family and friends? 
"Plan A": If you can trust them, I would stick my team.
"Plan B": Are you really sure, that the new offer is for real and enduring (No a startup which is shutdown in some months)
Other pro and cons are overtime, travel time, hardware and "goodies" like lunch or education.
Press F1 for help or google it.

I am in the middle of a job switch right now.
I have been almost 7 years in this company. I was not so good paid as in other places and it was very stressfull from time to time (industry automation = PLC, Robots and so on). But... the company has fully trusted me, I could manage my own time, I was allowed to handle with customers on my own (for important or very expensive matters I had to ask though), work clima was very good (all between 25 and 40 years old and with a nice team feeling), extra hours account without deadline (I even had 4 months vacations once, when my GF ended studies and we made a long asia tour).
During this 7 years a customer tried to headhunt me a couple of times. I would have earned 20% or 25% more, but I was there 4 years as extern and I didn't like the clima, the ingeneers were always overloaded, flat rate hours, vacations must be consumed in the year or get lost and more and more and more
I am now changing because I bought a house and got married, and my current job is 90 Km (one way) far from home. That means: I have set my highest priority to "Family".
I would say, if new job gives you better quality of life and it is important to you, then it is worth the risk. Being somewhere where your evolution has a top or you are underchallenged it is not so nice.
My father taught me to set an own deadline and start two lists everytime I had a very important decission to make. One with "pro's" and the other with "contra's" but always with facts trying to avoid the "what if's", fill them honestly during a time with every little aspect that comes to mind and then, when deadline comes, have a look to both lists and decide according to the lists.
It has helped me a lot.
It is difficult to tell you what you should do, this is something you have to decide on your own. The only thing I can advice (according to my own experience in the last months) is... take you time to decide, then (no matter which decission you take) do it being consequent with it and don't looking back.
Good luck ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

I don't know. I am one. <grin>
As for the first message. I try to aim for both. And have quite often hit it. More pay and a better environment.
Next one might not be though.

Nothing, I didn't make any critic.
I just told that we are all in the same age-range. And IMHO it usually is easier to connect with people that is in the same age. I actually have good friends that are older than me. But I find it more difficult to make private things out of the job enviroment when age differences are big.
With my older friends I go have dinner, concerts, theater or things like that. With my younger friends I go trecking, paintball, cart-driving and other activities where the older usually say "I don't feel like doing that"

I used the afternoon and evening to assemble a new T-Rex 450 helicopter. On this picture [^]´you can see a AR7200BX mounted on the side of the carbon frame.
It's a combination of RC receiver and 3 axis gyro and stabilisation. Basically it's just a microcontroler that takes input from the receiver and the 3 axis gyro and then calculates what values to send out to the servos. You can even do a software update over a USB cable.
This little box makes up between 30% and 50% of the price of the helicopter. I know there are microcontroller based solutions for multicopters. They essentially work in a very similar fashion, but have to generate totally different outputs. Does anybody know where to look for something like that? Up to now I found only a project where you have to solder together your own hardware and don't get access to the software. That would be ok if I only wanted to save some money, but I do also want to take a good look at the program.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

One of the projects for multicopters you mention is the MultiWii - it's got it's own site somewhere around. Pretty sure the MultiWii code is just C also, no need to monkey with uController asm. (but dont shoot me if I'm wrong, it's been a while)
There's a couple of really switched-on guys over at RCGroups.com - Dave1993 sounds like he more than knows his stuff, here's a thread he started:

If you think the AR7200BX is expensive then look at the top of the range Spartan Vortex!
I'm sure what you are asking could be done, There is a micro version of the Naze32 controller that would fit on a helicopter and could be programmed to stabilise a CP helicopter, this would take a lot of time/effort and I myself would prefer to be flying than spending even more time in front of a PC.

Hi Sergey,
Did you mean to post this in the Spam & Abuse Watch forum?
Also, you better avoid posting exact links to questions and include spam terms; your message was picked by the message moderation feature for review (I approved it). Hence, it's better to post a link to the list of questions of the member instead of the questions themselves, then it does not need to get reviewed.

I think there is a bug. At the moment of posting, the page title showed "Abuse Watch". Because of your comment, I cannot remove it.

Hey, Sergey, you might be interested to know that this message popped up as needing moderation -- that's probably what caused your trouble yesterday.
This user has already been reported in Spam and Abuse and is on his way out the window.

It seems as a bug to me: I thought I clicked on "Abuse Watch", but the page title also showed "Abuse Watch".

Good; I already found the appropriate report.
As to the "message popped up as needing moderation"… It sounds troublesome. How can you see it? If this is a problem, it needs to be reported as a problem, or a bug.

It only means that the automated spam filter was unable to decide if you post is or is not a spam...It had some words that can be part of spam but not all the content fit the pattern of spam...So in this case the filter asks us CPians to decide...
(And probably that what happened to you, that someone decided that your post is a spam and caused your account to close)
I do not think it is a bug, but more like the beginning of the learning curve of a half-intelligent filter ...
You can see the message moderation page here: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Moderate.aspx[^] (in most cases it is empty)
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Thank you, but this is not what I reported. Unfortunately, I don't know how to reproduce the problem, so there is not much to discuss yet.

Spam filters are in place and doing very well now a days. Whenever they detect something suspicious in forum messages, that message goes to message moderation queue. Link to the same is visible just above the article moderation link (Not visible when there are no messages that need attention).
If you report that message as approved,all is well but if you report it as spam,that message will be no more along with the poster.

Thank you for the explanation. At least it explains why valid reports can get into the moderation queue; it can happen if you quote the part of spamming content in the report, right?
Anyway, this is not the problem I addressed. I only complained that my message got into this forum, in some wrong way.

It can also happen if only including a link to the spam message because message links are generated using the begin of the subject. If the subject contains suspicious words the report message may be detected as possible spam. This happens also when the link is used only in the href section.

That may be indeed a bug with moderated messages if you are sure that you have posted to the spam forum. But all messages I have moderated so far has been posted to the correct forums.
