I feel like most bootcamps are bad, and the metric I measure it by is how many people actually end up with careers. Sample size of friends, coworkers, and coming across random profiles on Linkedin or Twitter or whatever. Hackbright is the b

If I were you, I would stay at Google but try a different type of SWE. Like switching to mobile or something.

I haven't checked yet, but I'd think you may be able to get access through public library membership.

My mouse progression since 2005 has been MX518 - G400S - G903. I used the G502 for a few days when it first came out, and couldn't stand it because it just felt...weird with my grip. It also made my hand hurt. I'm completely locke

I've done keto three times now. It's the only way I can lose weight and eat healthy. I've always ended up breaking after 3-4 months due to missing Chinese & Japanese food too much.

I'd like to ask what about Swift feels complicated. I'm really curious because I've heard the same thing about Rust, and I also see Swift compared to Rust often.

What do your meals throughout the week consist of? I'm curious to know. I'd also like to know if you think ground meat itself is problematic, or if it's the preservatives and seasonings that are added to fast-food burger meat

I think that poster is referring to STEM as a whole. Software engineering is a small subset of STEM, and I'd argue that it is, surprisingly, both the most accessible and the most lucrative.

The terminology used by modern institutions is vague for a reason. Being too specific is excessively and indefensibly discriminatory.

I'm going to preface this post by saying that I don't have a problem with most of my coworkers (male and female) being Asian. In fact, I prefer it. I'm not Asian, but the majority of my friends, classmates, and coworkers thro

>In the new study, a pattern appeared in infected men: the longer they had been infected, the less conscientious they were. This seems...bad? In contrast with simply being more "outgoing".

Yes, if you read some of the follow-up pieces (or summaries, one is from a book), the victim mostly got their life back on track. No one knows their name or really remembers anything about them. The aggressor completely derailed both their

Even in certain parts of SF, which I'd argue is the most engineer-dense part of the US, you can go into an average bar or club and discover that most of the men aren't interested in talking about code either.

Do you have a link to a recommended parts list? Or a recommendation for somewhere I could go in/near SF to try it without purchasing my own parts. You have me interested. It would be great to experience something similar to the late 90

It was recently cheaper for me to buy an over-the-counter medication through Amazon Prime Now than it was to buy it at an actual drug store in SF. It was like a $5 difference after tax and tip. I was initially going to buy it on the way hom
