Pssh... You just need to adjust your setup (filthy mac user). I code in assembly on Windows 95 and IE 1. Nothing works on the computer and nothing loads on the browser. Ergo, no distractions!

I'm glad he does it right. Now if the people interviewing me could do it right, that would be great.

To add on to this, even with the reticence many of us approach Mint with, it has the reputation of Intuit behind it. What can you say to alleviate these fears? (directed at Penny)

This could make for some interesting social experiments. I'd be interested in seeing data that shows how people react to this and use it.

This would probably work. But the outcry would be huge. People don't like paying for things they used to get for free. $2 to $2.10 for gas in lamentable, but ultimately only a 5% raise. 0 to anything is outrageous and a mathematically

No. Not at all. The Browser is my portal between sites on the internet. The Nav is my portal between pages on a site. I want them to remain consistent to themselves. The site has to have a uniform experience across all pages. And the browse

Yeah, they are saturating the market these days. I decided to go for it because I was unsatisfied with my degree path (I was in business), and a scholarship more or less fell into my lap. I filtered the bootcamps based off the curriculum th

I don't know if this is something you want to do, but I have a full time development job with no more education than High School and attending one of those Bootcamps. So technically you don't need any degree at all to break into

First question. What languages are in use? Because I know LAMP, but this might be on Microsoft or MEAN. In which case I'll have found and cleaned up 3 projects and a resume for no reason. All the information needs to be presented upfro

I like the idea. I've used services like this before. I do wonder if monospaced font is really the best route. It makes anything longer than a couple hundreds words a pain to read.

Shorthand is one of those magical things that seems nice to know but looks like learning a different language.

I'm aware of a the cursive version having a font, but I've never been able to find a print version (though I haven't applied much effort to the task). http://www.yuoiea.com/uoiea/index.php?id=255

Exactly this, I always know in the back of my mind that even if I drank the company kool-aid, they would drop me in a heartbeat if it benefited them.

I use Jira. Trello is a cheaper, simpler, and smaller version of Jira.

I can't think of any guides. I picked up most of my know-how through using Linux (Ubuntu, specifically). A couple things for you which may be obvious, but a good place to start nonetheless: / - This is Root. Most of your system fi

moz://a is interesting imagery as a protocol. But I still don't understand how this is any different for them. I just see a new site.

Fair point, I can't plug the hard drive into my tablet.

This looks really cool, but honestly, if I have everything on a hard drive, why would I upload it and re-stream it?

"The table above already shows that birth rates go to zero by 2065." Uh.... This seems incorrect. Sure we can extrapolate the declining birthrate all the way down to zero, but realistically it will level out somewhere since huma
