SEEKING WORK - REMOTE PREFERRED OR LOCAL OAKLAND & SF

CoffeeScript / Server side JS / Node / Django

Towards the end of my MS CS and I have more time on my hands than I anticipated this semester. Would love to do work on more node / coffee projects, otherwise I have lots of experience building web apps with Python.

This is kind of frustrating. Been waiting patiently for registration and now that its open Ive been unable to complete the form successfully due to timeouts/503s etc. And now Im hearing its sold out as well? I hope that maybe a non-web registration channel is opened to take sign ups that the site wasnt able to accomodate.

skullsplitter | 15 years ago | on: Ask HN: How to tell quickly if someone is professional?

One of my personal metrics for low resolution professionalism judgement is spin off of the classic "wtf's/min" standard for judging code quality.

My own unit is "Yes's/min". I find that when I'm explaining something to an individual who responds with too many "Yes's/min", that individual is usually (of course not always) not appreciating the nuances of the topic being discussed. Having an alarmingly high amount of certainty around a new or just introduced topic, I find, usually implies a lack of professionalism.
