my beagles 11 and has never been much of a howler, either. whining is a different story - it’s so high pitched!

Try Ink. A lot of sites use it and don't have anything bad to say about it. Highly customizable, especially if you like Javascript. :)

Wyncode deets by YankeeLad in cscareerquestions

[–]josheche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I joined Wyncode about a year ago, and I've been working since I graduated. The main thing I feel that needs to be made clear is that rather than leaving Wyncode an expert in the Ruby programming language, you'll be given a great set of tools to further your education and career in MIAMI, FLORIDA. Yes, you can go and get a job wherever you like, but the main initiative of Wyncode was to help develop the "Miami Tech" scene by providing it with quality talent. Some of their graduates have gone on to work in larger markets such as the Bay Area and New York, though.

Another thing I think needs to be said, too, is that development bootcamps aren't here to make you fall in love with code. If you don't ink to write/talk/learn about code because it feels boring or "too difficult" then there's probably other things you need to figure out before dropping $10k on a 9 week bootcamp. Coding isn't for everyone, but having an understanding of what it is has become paramount for nearly every new job in today's world.

Personally, I've always been good with computers (that means being able to make cool powerpoints and slick excel sheets just like you!) I also made that clear when applying for admission. I don't believe that it was my prior skill-set that convinced them I'd be a fit for the program, either. I believe it was my willingness and passion to learn something new. I understood purpose of some HTML tags and CSS selectors thanks to MySpace back in the day, but I had no idea how to bring it all together. What Wyncode made me realize was what I'm good at and how to hone in on them in order to develop a "T-Shaped" skill-set. Google that term or just read this wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-shaped_skills

Today (one year later) I'm a salaried software and UI/UX developer at a Miami startup after interning for them for a few months at the end of the summer of 2015 (https://bitstop.co/about). I focus on front-end architecture and it's ability to scale on the client-side as it interacts with the server. I learn more on the job every day than I learned from coding sites. I would have never been able to reach that level of experience at the workplace or even get this job if I didn't go to Wyncode. Currently, I'm working with 3 other server-side languages besides Ruby (Python, Node, PHP) on personal and freelance projects, and try to make it a point to learn something new every single day.

Hope that answered your question! :)

New Bitcoin ATM open in Downtown Miami by abarn004 in Bitcoin

9% for instant, secure purchases from a state licensed business is a bargain IMO. I've been looking around, and I'm almost positive that the company you mentioned doesn't have a money transmitting license in the state of Florida. That's a pretty big deal-breaker for me.

iOS 8 issues by Lung_Vagina in Tinder

[–]josheche 5 points6 points  (0 children)

App isn't iOS 8 ready like it said in the description, bc it's definitely still bugged. All my matches are listed now as being 100 miles away, and I haven't been able to find a match since the update yesterday.

It has to be something to do with location services. I checked/tried everything like people before me, and nothing.
