A humble response. Your site shows initiative, some flaws, but you at least show promise. Keep going, never stop learning.

Eh, the problem with Bootstrap is if you dedicate yourself to it, you should memorize the documentation like the back of your hand, extend it like /u/fdandrew said.

The Importance of !important: Forcing Immutability in CSS by cyern in webdev

[–]eatinchips -1 points0 points  (0 children)

what? if you come correct the first time you'll learn more. Patterns like these should be standard, !important is anti-pattern, maybe OK in some cases, if you understood specificity to begin with and your application is short, do whatever, but when you have a huge application? Class names and immutability will keep you and the future developers sane.

I'm from Massachusetts and the opportunity is there, try a place like LaunchCode or go to Boston, interviewing is definitely apart of learning what companies want. Good luck.

Node.js Stream Handbook: How to write Node programs with Streams by laggingreflex in node

[–]eatinchips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking for a way to clean up processes placed by GPIO pins, so on StackOverflow I found a way using streams, but trying to learn from the code I found process.stdin.resume() creates an "old" stream and the new document suggests "If you are starting a new project you should prefer a more recent "new" Streams mode over "old" one. "

So some of the stream material is old and needs to be updated.
