The headlines are a bad look for Ethereum, but this is actually a really good thing for the protocol overall I believe. It's a very important stress test for the network on something less risky than pure financial transactions, for exa

Irvine itself may be that expensive, but there are plenty of affordable* options in nearby Orange County cities. *affordable is relative - I'm talking homes in the 500-600k range

* updates requirements.txt from django==2.0a1 to 2.0 * Great work! I love Django and look forward to seeing how it continues to improve.

+1 for APIStar. I love Django but if all you want to build is an API, it can be a bit much. APIStar has been great so far in the one production API I've helped build even if there are a few pain points that come with using such a new f

You're not alone - I feel the same way, and from what I can gather there are lots more that identify with this sentiment. From what I've read, the common advice is just to keep slogging away and not let the terrible interviewers g

I'm assuming this is a fake interview to show off the interview feedback for your platform? If so, I think it looks great and is a huge part of what's missing from the current "standard" engineer interview. Receiving fee

I recently looked at San Diego's housing market and was surprised to see how much more affordable it was than LA. Seeing that they're building enough units to meet demand is probably one of the reasons why it's still affordab

I think savings rate is much better suited as a primary percentage-based metric to track on to see how people are doing. For those who have low to 0 savings rates, we can then look at why that is - and most the most likely case would be hig

As someone who is both an avid Django user and about to be a new parent, this is awesome! Expect a PR or two from me :)

Pretty much. I fit into this category and my anecdotal experience tells me that hiring managers favor contractors for that reason as well as the fact that the money to pay them sometimes is listed as a different line-item on the budget. I t

The housing bubble part of the infographic made me laugh. Saying we’re in another housing bubble because prices have risen dramatically since the bottom of the last crash is laughable. We may very well be, but those numbers are more indicat

This looks great - are you currently working on a python wrapper? If not, I'd be happy to help out there.

perhaps its a new kind of market fit validation - you're only allowed to spin up a micro instance and if it gets overwhelmed, you've validated your idea!

This is fantastic - both in usefulness and in design. Very well done!

As someone who works with Python every day, this isn't surprising. I forget where I heard/read it, but someone made the claim that Python is the "second best language for everything" (paraphrasing) and I couldn't ag

You're not alone in that conclusion - I think you either need to have purchased a home during the last real estate correction or be DINKs (or both) for it to really make sense financially.

This looks really cool and is potentially perfect for something I'm working on at the moment. Thanks for sharing.

I really don't want to sound like a jerk here, but I'm confused as to why anyone would need extra motivation to do their job. Isn't the satisfaction of shipping a feature already enough to motivate?

As a fellow self-taught developer, I feel your pain. I've been there, many times. However, there's no reason that you can't also teach yourself the necessary CS fundamentals required to ace these types of interviews. There ar

In my experience, just do the following: Be generally likable Write decent to good code Connect on a regular basis with current and former co-workers Be aggressive about finding new opportunities (usually through people you've worked w

I think you can use pycharm (and other jetbrains products) to handle version control, but I prefer to use a command line. It's what I'm used to.

Yep, you're right. I just added git to my path so that I can now do it all from powershell, so that's cool!

I just switched from Mac to Windows 10, and I work on a lot of Django projects. I use PyCharm (love jetbrains) + Vagrant and it's working great so far. I'd highly recommend spending the time learning Vagrant - it can be incredibly
