- ChrisMarshallNY 7y agoWell, I have spent the last year and a half "retooling" to be a pure developer. I was a manager for twenty-five years, and did not code full-time. I love coding. I'm a really good manager, but I don't love it. Since I need to hang a coding shingle, I need to have a serious portfolio. These types of projects give me that.
- cerberusss 7y agoDude! Mad respect. Not many people seem able to turn around their career, because it requires a decent amount of effort. One of my office mates is sick and tired of developing business apps but can't seem to turn the ship around. I've made some technical switches (Java -> Embedded -> iOS) and found those to be hard; like you said, you need to have a serious portfolio before someone bothers interviewing you for either a job or a freelance project.
