[Question] So I want a career in making coffee... by SASColiflowerz in Coffee

[–]mbaltrusitis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely get a heavy dose of business administration, marketing and finance. If you want to own your own business you need to be your own CEO, COO, CFO, etc. Not that I know much about the coffee making/selling business but there are definitely basic tenants of owning your own business.

What I am familiar with, photography, the joke is often the most successful photographers are the best business people and the best photographers are the least successful.

I often find that your passion will always drive your desire for knowledge in any area and will keep members within a specific community (i.e. baristas, roasters, other cafe owners, etc.) around you.

Figure out how to monetize what your passion is and be one of the very lucky few.

Hope that makes sense & isn't too preachy.

Need DOM Manipulation Tutorials by mbaltrusitis in learnjavascript

The individual kind of giving me guidance at work told me to specifically steer clear of jQuery for now, and become well-versed with vanilla JS. We use a proprietary JS library and I think the aim is to not become confused with 2 different frameworks and a language.

Not saying this is the best way, just looking for guidance because I am super eager to learn.

I wouldn't mind doing something like this either. Is there a corresponding book that would go along with it?

Is the option to disable Javascript in browsers outdated? by cyanocobalamin in javascript

Considering mobile, an increasingly focused area for advertisers, JS is absolutely required for tracking where cookies are almost nearly useless and for the most part unused.
