   There are a LOT of recent bootcamp grads in SF. If you don't have a hookup, getting noticed may be difficult. Not sure about NYC. Recommendation: until you can afford to be choosy, go where you get the most attention in your career

   In the USA, or at least in California, the employer does not pay the unployement benefits to the former employee. The benefits are paid by the state, which in California is http://edd.ca.gov . The employer pays for unemployment

   I don't see the point of a Smart TV. My TV is a 40" monitor for my Chromecast. I don't know what value a Smart TV could offer me.

   +1 for yoga. I started lifting earlier this year, and doing it properly never clicked for me. I tried yoga and really liked it. Have been going regularly for about a month now.

   I used Sidecar a lot when it was fixed pricing. When it went to the variable marketplace, it became more of a pain. Eventually I stopled using it.

    That being a software developer at a technology company trumps being a developer at a company that has technology.

    I like using https://gist.github.com for making random lists. It is so easy to just drop stuff in there.

    I'd say that people tend to dislike crappy managers. No one (rational) actually hates a manager that makes their life easier.

    If there were a tree swing at a hotel, and someone died in the process of using said swing, I would expect that to be a legitimate liability.

    I was a tech recruiter for 9 years. Filled hundreds of tech jobs at startups. The only thing employers really care about is hiring employees that help the company do one of three things: 1. save time 2. save money 3. make money No rati

    I work in an office, and everyone on my team is remote, including my boss. I might as well be working from home most of the time! But I like going into the office :)

    That's one big reason it's hard to scale a service business. Why maybe a fraction of X when you can make X?

    I was a paying Pandora customer until I hit their limit for the number of stations one can create. I'd made 100 stations, tried to add one more, and it wouldn't let met. Then I went to Rdio, and I've been happy ever since!

    I like pure JS over CoffeeScript (and other something-to-JS solutions) because: - Writing JS gives me a better feel for how the language actually works - I like the line number in the JS I'm debugging to equal the line in my source cod

    Was talking to a Presidential Innovation Fellow, and probably just misunderstood what they were saying, or perhaps the Fellow had incorrect information.

    As I understand it, 18F started off as part of USDS. But the Obama administration wanted the program to outlive his tenure as POTUS, so they tucked 18F into the GSA.

    It's kind of like a grocery store eliminating the name brand items that compete with the store brand. In this case, the store brand (aka Amazon Instant Video), isn't that interesting to me. I might be willing to consider Amazon

    There aren't many places where you could fit a camper van in San Francisco. Not a bad idea though.
