I have a super hard time reading. ADHD and all that. Getting started with a new tool is hard, but I power through it. Sooner or later it gets easier.

I like what a friend of mine who went from Ruby to Python said... "Python is easier to understand, harder to love." For me personally: * I like Rubygems & Bundler more than Pip * I find the split between Python 2.x and 3.x to

And it is sometimes worth interviewing with a company that sounds interesting. One can't predict how an interview will go beforehand. I've been pleasantly surprised by some interviews that I had expected would be completely unin

Gotcha. Maybe the one example I am remembering is a special case, or that person simply didn't work out after three weeks.

I'm often curious about the theory, or at least the "How do I do X?", bits of programming. What helps me is picking something I'm curious about, and then figuring out how to be curious about a smaller piece of it. Latel

When I started exercising, it made me hungrier. But my crappy eating habits made me sanna stuff my face with more crap. Developing better eating habits, then adding exercising, works better for me.
