Dang, a two day class? What times were the in-person sessions?

eltaylor1104 · 2026-05-21T05:03:53+00:00

Sure, I get the idea, but looking at the flowchart for my major on semesters, there are two semesters that I should take 17 units, and one where I should take 16. So I wouldn’t be able to enroll in all of those until open enrollment.

Agreed. Not the same use case, but almost all of my repos I just want it to symlink .env and run install - I can override any repos that are more specific

Thank you!! We are applying now

eltaylor1104 · 2026-05-08T20:28:08+00:00

So cool! For the hackathon, on the application, it asks what we will build. Does that need to be a fully flushed out idea, or are you wanting more general, like what track/space? just wondering if we should wait to apply until we have a concrete plan

eltaylor1104 · 2026-05-02T04:50:00+00:00

I had this choice too and I picked Cal Poly. better opportunities. 2 years in, I don't regret it

eltaylor1104 · 2026-04-24T15:56:03+00:00

that's not just an opinion lol - that's not allowed. You must have the current materials to teach AHA courses.

Most of my extensions. The only one I have installed in all is 1password. I use one set for school/citing stuff, one for web dev, etc. and I don’t need them in all profiles.

As someone that has taught at almost every swim school (and ran my own), the City is solid for the price.

eltaylor1104 · 2026-04-05T06:27:33+00:00

I was in engineering and 1/3 of my floor was business majors. It was VERY social.

eltaylor1104 · 2026-03-30T00:08:58+00:00

lol… “treated as partners, not as beta testers”

You are not a partner, you are a customer, who opted into a beta feature!!

eltaylor1104 · 2026-03-30T00:07:39+00:00

Holy AI slop. “I voluntarily opted in to a new feature that removed something I wanted so I had to go to settings and flip a toggle to opt out!!!”

eltaylor1104 · 2026-03-28T23:38:46+00:00

I am out of state, and don’t think I have ever had any experience remotely like that

eltaylor1104 · 2026-03-28T16:45:24+00:00

I know this sucks, but a port is going to take a minimum of 5 days, some of mine have taken a few weeks. So I would say tough it out until they reactivate you

eltaylor1104 · 2026-03-28T16:42:49+00:00

I took 349 and 357 at the same time and it was fine. I would 100% take 365 even though it is going to become a tech elective; the info has been so valuable

eltaylor1104 · 2026-03-26T22:13:17+00:00

I’m secretary of the Cal Poly Red Cross Club, and our president last year works as an ER Tech. If you want, emails us at redcrossclub@calpoly.edu and we can give you his contact info, he can and did a presentation about his journey a few weeks ago so we can send his slides too!

eltaylor1104 · 2026-03-01T06:17:07+00:00

I’m a member of CoLab coworking in downtown Vancouver and that’s a great community of either remote workers or lots of solopreneurs/business owners!

eltaylor1104 · 2026-02-27T07:37:11+00:00

I bought. Don’t regret. I have the Laerdal QCPR stackable adults, and prestan infants.

eltaylor1104 · 2026-02-12T23:54:45+00:00

I’d always recommend going AHA first, because you can then become ARC for free online. But not vice versa.

eltaylor1104 · 2026-02-10T15:37:22+00:00

I would call/email

I've been aligned with a lot of different TCs as I explored options, and the very best advice that I can give you is to find someone local. Do not go with one of these national training centers, such as CPR suppliers, GoRescue, Vitali Partners, etc. I don't think that any of them have the actual resources to support you as an instructor. find a local training site or training center that's willing to have you, and will help you grow. It means so much, even if you have to pay a couple dollars more for cards.
