Having been on both ends of the hiring process (in tech): 1. You don't have to be 100% qualified. Just show me that the skills you have are transferrable. 2. Tailor your CV & cover letter to the vacancy and company. List at least o

Question everything. Not just the obvious things like "how does crypto work", but also mundane things you encounter in everyday life: Why did they react that way? Could I have handled that better? Why was ___ placed in that locati

Dischidia aka String of Nickels/Button Orchids are great if you don't have a green thumb. Mine have outlived even my Tilandsia (both of these are hardy soil-less plants)

Tutorials are all very well, but what we really need is the programming equivalent of Geocities or Diaryland. That's how many of us got started with HTML and CSS - by making stuff and trying to get it to look nice. Ideally this place w
