So you’ve just made an awesome app and you have no idea how to get the word out. This is a problem most app developers have, so you’re not alone. I’ve released many mobile apps to the app store, most of them Android, but still a diverse collection. It has been tough work, but I’ve established myself by getting many downloads, maintaining a high average rating, and getting a few hundred dollars monthly in app revenue.

When a business or a profession grows faster than the labor market it draws from , it suffers a capability deficiency: there simply aren't enough experienced people to go round. It also suffers a leadership deficiency: there aren't enough people with cross-discipline experience to make competent business decisions. When there are more leadership jobs than there are qualified leaders to fill them, people will be given responsibilities they would not otherwise have.

I often find myself working with legacy database tables that don’t have primary keys or auto increment keys. In addition to this, I always find myself needing to get the latest record for a particular set of data in my database. It is never as easy as just calling a max in the where clause. A subquery is often needed to get the most recent record in a table.
