I'm a "recent" grad looking to get my first full-time position. Please do not contact me if you're looking for 10+ years experience or if you want to fill a senior role.

0X1A | 9 years ago | on: Node v7.5.0 Released

I don't keep up with node end ES version compliance but is there a scheduled release that'll target all ES6 features?

0X1A | 9 years ago | on: Announcing GVFS: Git Virtual File System

Just to make sure I have this right, this has to do with the _amount_ of files in their repo and not the _size_ of the files? So projects like git annex and LFS would not help the speed of the git repos?

0X1A | 10 years ago | on: Announcing Rust 1.8

I haven't quite looked but is there a timeline for when compiler plugins will be stabilized? Interested in using serde but would prefer using macros

0X1A | 10 years ago | on: GPG signature verification

Got an error: "There was an error parsing that key. Check that the key is valid and try again." Cool.

Edit: It seems to like my key now...?

I've been signing my commits for at least a year now so it's nice that they added this. I think it adds another layer of author verification other than maybe SoB.

0X1A | 11 years ago | on: Rewrite the OS, Change the World

The writing in this leads me to believe that this person knows very little about how operating systems work, or what they even are.

0X1A | 12 years ago | on: How GitHub No Longer Works

It's very easy to be a part of the the problem when you're not contributing to a solution. It's also very easy to say a lot about nothing. I mean that in that you source no projects that have gone the way you described.

0X1A | 12 years ago | on: Fix Ubuntu

That is completely subjective. A lot of people hate Unity, the same way people hate every DE that exists. So much so that some do not even use a DE. Using a DE as an argument for Ubuntu's advantage is weak as they're usually ambiguous. I say usually because it tends to be that Unity, like Mir, isn't really adopted into any other distribution in official repositories. Even more so after Mir's release, since it'll be dependent on it.

0X1A | 12 years ago | on: Actualvim – Sublime Text 3 input mode powered by Vim itself

The point of vim and its key bindings is to not have to use anything other than the keyboard (and keys that are not too off from the home row), so it's not the best of both worlds at all. Having to click on something forces someone to use their mouse, breaking their concentration and wasting time on clicking on a tab.

0X1A | 12 years ago | on: There are 10 types of good programmers

I would more than likely fall under the second type. Growing up relatively poor my family didn't have a computer, and neither did the majority of other family members. It wasn't until my mid teens that I finally had access to a computer and at that time MySpace was popular amongst friends so only thing I got into at the time was HTML and CSS. It wasn't until years later that I picked up a lower level language. At times I feel jealous of those that had access to a computer at a young age and were exposed to learning a language, but in the long run that doesn't really matter as long as both types can do the same thing. I didn't grow up writing programs but that doesn't mean I'm slow to pick anything up.
