Yeah I'm a developer. I don't want to apply to the, but I'm really curious. Or rather, pretty angry at my self that I don't get it haha. Still can't figure it out :( It's not UTF-8, ASCII nor md5/SHA1 or any hex. Am I missing something?

It has no hierarchy. First, I would centre your name, address and information and draw a line under them. I would then create sections: Projects, Experience, Skills, Education Then I would have a table (hide the grid/border) and be consiste

Rails is definitely the way to go. In fact, I would go far and say it may be the most popular framework with startups these days. Knowing how to design themes (I'm assuming you're a HTML,CSS,JS wiz), learning iOS and knowing Rails is the ul

H1-B is a lottery. It is not guaranteed at all. There is a set number of visas issued each year. Google "H1-B lottery". Check out the latest Bloomberg article on it. Last year, on the fifth day when they received a specific number of applic

Nothing. Just applied to mine in fact. But: 1- H1-B Is not guaranteed. It's a lottery (literally). and 2- You have 60 days after graduation on OPT to find a job. For many that I know (particularly not in the tech field), they are really sea

I'm about to graduate from Virginia Tech. You're absolutely right. Also, I'm an international student; 7 others applied to Tech from my high school. All got accepted. Virginia Tech tries really hard to get international students and it used

After mastering screen, I switched to tmux. It's a lot easier to configure. It's also a lot nicer to split panes etc... Definitely recommend the switch. You might be dreading it, but two days into tmux you won't regret it. It took many week

No, check out the current W13 batch. Not all are SaaS. Some are hardware. But they're real products that people want to use, and I'm assuming the founders are pretty bright and promising.

It's pretty good quality I think (learned that the hard way). Now that I checked, I got 3 responses now. I guess I shouldn't have complained having to wait 12 hours for a good response. Posting questions at 3pm EST spoils us, expecting resp
