Why do you think you're having trouble? Presumably you know at least 1 language well and can build shit? Are you looking for competitive jobs and are you trying very hard? In my experience a lot of people get jobs through networks so

Wyatt, You're story is inspiring of course and I have 2 questions if I may. I've had similar issues although I have a lot of support; mostly chronic un(der)employment; substance abuse and briefly was quasi-homeless. I finally have

This is a big deal but a terrible way to point it out. I had that iMac until recently and it rips, that's a big boost for a tablet. That said it's like saying, iPhone has more computing power than NASA...In 1963.

Good point. I hate DRM but I couldn't articulate why I didn't have much issue with this. It's a rental, you don't own it. I bought a book that was DRM and I can't read it. It was Barnes and Noble and they cancelled

Well Indians are over represented in tech so you're views don't matter. Double because you're male. But yes, rather rediculous. Totally agree. It's like survelience and terrorism. Just a stupid excuse to gain Goodwill w&

Those are terrible. The grimace one wasn't terrible; so I thought, "hmm, this is likely the worst of what is a totally trivial problem". The problem is trivial but it went down hill quality wise. I would say honestly, a new
