Do we get a choice of what we do? I am interested in testing and security only not so much feature building and front-end work. Also, do grad students qualify?

I some times look at the career section for startups and alcohol seems to be a common theme. Either kegs or stocked fridges. I wonder if we will see 420 friendly companies in WA and CO in the near future.

I've noticed this and RideJoy is filled with dummy accounts. What happens when someone wants to use the service and tries to get a ride from one of those dummy accounts?

I am not a fan of Codeacademy. I don't see how one can learn from typing in a field box. It would be better if they had you build out a functional project kind of like Learn Rails by Example.

What is it that you want to do exactly? It seems like a lot of people lump "coding" and "programming" into being a Software Engineer or a Software Developer. I am a Front End Web Dev and I can guarantee having a CS degree would be beyond ov

Truthfully it depends. Some people pick up on stuff quickly. Just come up with an idea and start building. I find that the best way to learn. If you get stuck just Google.
