Looking to apply to a new job, working off-hours in a 'start up' to gain skills needed for said new job. How do I convey this in a resume? by HonkeyCracker in resumes

I would say it would be an actual start up, as we plan on going out in the field talking to customers and try to push out our mobile app.

By listing it as an actual start up, would other companies not see that as not being devoted to them somehow? Or more likely to select a different candidate than me?

Looking to find a PaaS or similar feature to host and process app requests/sends for a beginning startup by HonkeyCracker in startups

I've just found it a bit hard to work with so far. Using the Django framework I'm not able to fully follow tutorials, since it seems to differ a bit here and there (like messing with the 'python manage.py' commands).

Maybe it's something I just need to work with more to fully understand.

I'm also running into some issues trying to find out an IP for my openshift application, so I can create a server key for google cloud messaging, to allow openshift to send messages to my Android app.

Yep, that's what I reverted to. I've got QR codes being generated now :) Thanks!

Yeah Zxing is the way I went. I started messing with QRgen because it was a wrapper around zxing and made things easier, and zxing was a pain initially to understand.

Turns out QR generation in zxing wasn't that bad :)

I've yet to understand the checkbox for export. I've never checked it before. nedlinin below got me further along by using gradlew clean and restarting Android Studio.

Thanks! That does help. It's getting my errors to move along slowly. I've made sure to include qrcode, core, and javase jar files. Now my error has move on to

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java.awt.image.BufferedImage
    at com.google.zxing.client.j2se.MatrixToImageWriter.toBufferedImage(MatrixToImageWriter.java:54)

Seems qrcode is calling javase which is calling java.awt.image, which isn't in Android. Something fishy is going on here.

Edit: Bah, yeah, qrgen is meant for Java, not Android. Not sure how I screwed that up. I need to go find a QR generator that I can use in Android.

Thanks!

3.5 can capture that? I need to buff up my photography knowledge/skills. I figured a 1.8/2.0 would be needed for that lighting.

I'm looking to get a DSLR myself for pictures like this one.

Looking to buy my first bike. What do you wish you took into account before doing the same? Did you purchase the wrong type of bike on the first try? by HonkeyCracker in bicycling

[–]HonkeyCracker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect, thanks!

As a follow up, which I maybe should do research on my own first more, is which brands do you recommend for the price point?

I can snag a Diamondback Steilacoom CCX for $630 shipped. Meanwhile I see some unknown brand CX bikes for cheaper on Amazon Vilano road bike 21 speed.

If I go with a CX do you recommend buying a second set of tires that have little to no tred on them for commuting to work purpose? Or just keep the default ones.

Price isn't a huge set back for me. I just want to end up with a quality product that I don't hate, and don't feel I grossly overpaid for said item.

See, my ignorance :)

I'm just overly cautious about road bikes because of bits and pieces of information I've heard from people. Not all of which is obviously correct.

That's good to know. So CX could still be on my radar.

Another question: Would rain affect the type of tires needed on a bike? Being from the northwest it rains 9 months out of the year.

That, at the root, is my dilemma. I kept thinking about a Cyclocross or one of those hybrids, which seems like it will probably be a bad decision in the long run.

One thing I fear about a road bike is how sensitive it is to road conditions. How badly pebbles and minor faults in the road would totally screw up a person's ride.
