Yes, it's been a while but I tried that initially. I forget why I didn't like it... maybe I'll give it another shot.

This is great. Beyond side projects, I'd love to see some "behind the side project"-type stuff. Your post here is a perfect example.

I'm really starting to wonder if we're in a "developer bubble." Everyone wants to learn to code. Every other week there's a blog post on "why everyone should learn to code." Last year, NYC Mayor Bloomberg posted his new years resolution was

I actually know exactly what you're talking about and here's what I do: - Put Bootstrap in a folder and import it as a framework in CodeKit. (Just like you.) - In my project folder, I create a LESS file for the project (e.g. project.less).

Maybe I'm dumb, but I can't tell if this is a joke or not. These blurry, zoomed-in photos look like they could be anything. This is either really lame or proof that I'm an idiot.

Anecdotal evidence is anecdotal and I'm a major skeptic of all things, but I'm amazed at hour accurate Leaky was for me. My wife and I pay $119 per month for car insurance and Leaky's magic was within $3 bucks. Wow. EDIT: Might I suggested

I'd love to see you do write-ups on some of the 35+ cool companies you met with. Surely you've seen some neat things. Even if the companies/positions weren't for you, I'm sure they'd benefit from the exposure as would all of us.
