To add another anecdote, I thought I was the only one who thought drivers have gotten worse in the Bay Area over the past few years. The frequency of some driver not paying attention or not following the rules of the road and blowing through stop signs and red lights or abruptly turning into my path without a signal has been increasing, as a driver, cyclist, and pedestrian. Stay safe out there, especially during the winter months.
I'm also hoping the A&B Acoustic II video is similar to the Acoustic I video; the first Acoustic concert video also drew me to go in person.
Side note, Lane 8 experimented with phone-less concerts that went well enough that he does that for his tours now, even naming his new record label "This Never Happened". My friends and I joke that it started with a Mixmag set where a crowd member in the front kept recording video and flash photos, whereas Lane 8 is usually very much enveloped in the music he's playing (https://youtu.be/sWa7GdYiYUQ?t=15m2s).
I've enjoyed his phone-less concerts a lot - it's just tape over the camera, so you can send/receive a quick message if needed, and step off to the back or side if you need to use it longer.
Yes, they sent hoodies on premiere night to the first 509 people that reached the end sign-up page. Very cool of the marketing team and everyone involved.
I'm enjoying this a lot. The explanations are straightforward and the writing and animation style is entertaining. I'm liking the website parodies and the puns in the alt texts. I'm learning new things and the linked resources are good for going in-depth. I'd probably pay for advanced lessons in this style. I'll be recommending to friends!
My go-to resource for practicing is http://leetcode.com. There are a lot of questions ranging from easy to hard and an online judge to check your solution by running test cases. If I remember right, there's also a discussions section. They hit a lot of classic interview questions that help you prepare for those questions that wrap those classic problems in obscurity.
For a refresher on algorithms and data structures, I also like the Harvard CS50 videos up on YouTube. They walk through sorting algorithms and cover the bases of various data structures.
The Nature article that PopSci links to goes way more in depth and is a great read: http://www.nature.com/news/nuclear-power-desperately-seeking.... Also brings up discussion of the need of much more powerful energy sources (potentially nuclear) for proposed human space exploration missions.
This is great! I like being able to see so many different Utilities and DevOps tools being used. But it seems like many of the top stacks don't mention the application frameworks or languages that they're using. Why might that be the case?
LeetCode has a great collection of problems that you can practice with and test your solution in the browser (https://oj.leetcode.com/). The discussion sections were helpful as well.
Thanks for the reply! Reordering in the content form is only meant for reordering schools within the education section, reordering employment positions within the employment section, etc. Reordering entire sections can actually be accomplished in the resume customizer, where they can be moved up and down, or to diferent columns entirely.
A few other users have mentioned the same difficulty, so I now recognize that it is a point of confusion due to a lack of guidance or clarity in the UI. I will be working on ways to reduce this confusion, and certainly the documenting of your experience will help with improving this part of the UI.
Resumes are becoming less relevant than they used to be in some fields, but many other people still need them. Take career fairs for example - you still need to bring a hard copy resume to a career fair. Sure the need might be diminished, but the need still exists.
Thanks for the great information. I've caught some odd behavior in the logs just like this and other users have reported it as well. I'm attempting to recreate and fix this right now as it's causing a lot of trouble. I'm sorry for the difficulty it's caused and I'll let you know when a fix is pushed!
Side note, I didn't manage to integrate bug reporting in time (even though I really should have because there are a couple of good, easy options). For the time being, I can give support via [email protected]!
Thanks! Creddle is not open source and does not have an open API at the moment. I do have ideas on some portions of Creddle that might be a good opportunity to open source in the future. I would need to separate it and package it up properly. But more importantly, I'd want to build the team up so that we'd be able to give enough attention to whatever open source projects might spin off Creddle. I don't want to release an open source project that is poorly supported because I don't have enough time or help.
I think the same goes for an open API - a poorly supported API can be very frustrating to use. If Creddle and the team continue to grow, I think that these two things would come naturally.
So Creddle doesn't natively export PDFs, but rather relies on the browser to print the page as a PDF. At the very least, the site exports the resume to static HTML during this process in order to strip away unneccessary attributes and elements before printing.
It's a short-term solution. If I can recall correctly, I tried both wkhtmltopdf and PhantomJS and was able to succesfully export maybe 60-70% of resumes properly. But I ran into numerous differences with fonts and spacing that sometimes caused weird page or section breaks. I ended up scrapping that method in favor of working on DOCX exporting, because at least there was some method of printing a PDF, even if it was a workaround.
I do want to go back and re-explore PDF exporting, but other requests are taking priority at the moment. I do have guided help on printing as a PDF for a few browsers and OSs in the "Help" section.
That's cool! I'll check it out. I've had one or two other standard themes suggested to me, and I think it could be another killer feature to help make these easier to create.
Thanks! LinkedIn importing is done within the app, which is also why some users were running into issues with it yesterday - so many unique profiles to import (: I've made a few patches yesterday, looking to make some more today.
