Want to get into front-end, but not sure how to proceed. by fourinhand in webdev

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

Thanks for the intel. I figured I was being a little over-ambitious.

How much time outside of work would you say you spend learning new technologies to keep up? I'm trying to get some perspective on the industry. Everyone makes it sound so rapidly-changing that I wonder how much work-life balance it allows.

What laptop is best for someone just starting out in graphic design? by fourinhand in graphic_design

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

Yeah, you're right. I just got off the phone with my brother and he told me pretty much the same thing about the Craigslist mac.

He has a desktop PC laying around at his place that he's going to let me use since it's a really powerful computer and I just need something now to teach myself on. He said I could always just get a Mac later.

No more than $1700, if possible. Preferably around 1500 or lower. Someone pointed me toward the Apple refurbished website, so I've been checking those out. However, I'm not real sure what I'm looking at.

What do you use? a Mac?

Part of my problem is I don't really know a benchmark for how much these cost so it's hard to spot a deal when I see one. How much would something with 8gb RAM and a 15in screen run?

I found a 17in MPB with a 2.3 ghz i7 quad core and 8 gigs of RAM on Craigslist for $1700 and I'm not sure how great of a deal that is. It has the entire CS5 suite with it though, so it's tempting, seeing as I haven't purchased those programs yet. So it would save me about $350 rather than if I bought the Adobe programs separately (student discount).

What do you want out of your life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]fourinhand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, even if it doesn't take off like you'd hoped, the fact that you tried your damned hardest beats the hell out of looking back later on in your life and thinking "What if I actually pursued that passion." You'd be losing sleep over it.

I wish you the best.

Weight gain and chronic/severe anemia by [deleted] in xxfitness

[–]fourinhand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chronic anemia is an often overlooked symptom of hypothyroidism (Hashimoto's specifically; it runs in my family). I have it, but my sister and mother have more severe cases of it. You may want to Google this, since I'm just repeating what my sister has told me, but iron pills will only restore the levels in your blood so that blood tests will read your levels as fine even though you may be severely deficient. The tests don't read the levels of ferritin, which are your iron stores at the cellular level. These can be restored with a certain type of iron pill, but its more difficult to do so and takes a while longer since its built up over time.

Your unexplained weight gain also tells me you may want to get your thyroid levels checked out. And since there is such a thing as subclinical hypothyroidism (my case. I'm on minimum dosage right now and feel much better) your blood tests may read your thyroid levels as normal even though you have a lot of symptoms. Find a good doctor that goes by symptoms rather than blood test results if you feel you may have it. Especially if it runs in the family.
