   Thanks for the incredibly helpful advice! I definitely want to participate in a hackathon within the next couple of years. The experience seems grueling but extremely rewarding (for most people). 1. It seems like a good idea is to keep func

   I guess I assumed that most younger (or just beginning) iOS developers had built apps prior to getting offered positions. Right now, I would love a part-time job or an internship (that pays, because I wouldn'y be able to survive without mon

   First of all, thanks for the advice. I am not necessarily planning on dropping out, but I want to keep myself open to any potentially wonderful experiences. I also really enjoy school (mainly the CS classes), and I truly understand how bene

   Thanks! That's a really cool tip! There are so many interesting features that Gmail (and many other Google products) has to offer. My favorites are everything that goes on behind the hood.

    It seems like jacquesm's situation was a random encounter, and not as much of a pre-meditated action.

    I have very little experience. I went through 4 units of Udacity's Python "Building a Search Engine" class and loved it, but I stopped after that. I completed the first assignment for the Stanford CS193P class on iTunes U. I understand a lo

    Thanks! I knew of this book, but for some reason, I never decided to take a look at it. My current main thought is to start with Big Nerd Ranch's Objective-C Programming book, and then to me onto this iOS-Programming book. Does that seem li

    I like this idea, but my main concern is that it would become an idea buffet for developers/teams. People with original ideas that post on this board may become the next Winklevoss. How would the site protect intellectual property?

    Yeah, I was thinking along the same lines after a bit of reevaluation. I just wish that I was thoroughly exposed to trading at a much younger age. Thanks for the input!

    At first I thought it would be cool to call this "Adventure Time," but then I realized that you might receive a few lawsuits.

    This would actually be an incredibly useful service. I would probably jump on this if I wasn't already busy.

    I am also 18 and I am just starting now. I had to test drive a few different languages until I found what I am really passionate about (developing iOS apps). I am still in the VERY early stages but I know that with A LOT of hard work, deter

    Thanks jamesjguthrie! I'm actually new to Java and I'm starting off as a beginner so this course will unfortunately not work for me.

    Thanks! I'm looking for a video series to teach me though. Knowing myself, I know that visual and auditory stimulation is the most efficient way for me to learn.

    This is a really great point. Two things that come to mind would be a huge improvement in the gaming industry and with video conferences. I can only imagine a world without observable lag. That would be fantastic.
