I'll stop there

2018-10-24 06:23:54 UTC  

@YourFundamentalTheorum haha I like the sigma algebra one but don't get the epic one? It's a true statement if f is 1-1 and onto. Not sure what else.

2018-10-24 06:24:54 UTC  

@ThisIsChris epic means an epimorphism

2018-10-24 06:25:01 UTC  

which is literally defined by that equation

2018-10-24 06:25:12 UTC  

so f is epic

2018-12-15 23:02:36 UTC  

So this Julian Von Abele's phsyics QCI theory of physics- anyone think anything of it?

2018-12-15 23:12:01 UTC  

@Jonaltright I'm thinking of buying the book to support him, I don't really know what his theory is. I did take a physics class in college so I hope I can understand something of it 😁

2018-12-15 23:15:05 UTC  

Yeah I saw people doing that. I'm sure they'll suspend publication once they see an uptick in sales though :(

2018-12-15 23:16:39 UTC  

Hopefully he makes out ok. Doxxing has been devastating for me

2018-12-15 23:18:48 UTC  

@ThisIsChris Physics classes can be harsh. I took some to fulfill return requirements for a computer science degree. Are they actually useful in your career?

2018-12-16 03:39:01 UTC  

@Jacob Some intro to physics is a "now to know" but not "need to know". The main use in my career has been to better understand some calculus concepts, since the beginnings of calculus and physics are tightly connected.

2018-12-16 03:40:09 UTC  

😳

2018-12-16 03:40:21 UTC  

you actually use calculus in your job?

2018-12-16 03:40:39 UTC  

I heard programmers don't actually use it

2018-12-16 03:56:30 UTC  

I'll DM you

2018-12-16 04:25:41 UTC  

based

2019-01-01 17:45:04 UTC  

Hey, has anyone here changed careers using a 'code bootcamp'? Or is anyone a front-end web developer? I want to get a new job as a web developer this summer.

2019-01-01 19:06:58 UTC  

I’m currently trying to do that. Just going off of free courses online as of now

2019-01-01 20:59:59 UTC  

Cool @VinceChaos. I've been doing that for a few years now, but wasn't really taking it seriously. Now I'm doing a code bootcamp. What courses are you doing? Codecademy? W3Schools?

2019-01-01 21:15:17 UTC  

@NuclearReactionary Khan Academy, the Odin project, SoloLearn, and another that I can’t remember the name of rn

2019-01-01 21:15:31 UTC  

I use w3schools as a reference

2019-01-01 21:15:51 UTC  

Learning form multiple so I don’t miss anything and get different teaching types

2019-01-01 21:31:09 UTC  

Upskill! That was the last one. I really like using that one if you want to learn full stack

2019-01-01 21:40:10 UTC  

Nice. I haven't heard of Odin Project, SoloLearn or Upskill! I'll check them out!

2019-01-01 21:43:51 UTC  

The bootcamp I'm doing rn is $200/mo. but it's self-paced. I'm hoping to finish it in 3 months and then start applying for jobs lol

2019-01-01 21:44:14 UTC  

Oh yeah these are all free before I go for something like that

2019-01-01 21:44:21 UTC  

What’s your camp called

2019-01-01 21:44:58 UTC  

Treehouse. They have what they call a "TechDegree" for front end web development.

2019-01-01 21:45:26 UTC  

There's also one for full-stack if that's your thing, or iOS, too, I think.

2019-01-01 21:46:42 UTC  

A friend of mine is a web developer and he says the projects in this program are representative of the real world, so I'm confident I'll get a job when I'm done

2019-01-01 21:49:39 UTC  

Nice I actually did hear of that one maybe I’ll spend the cash

2019-01-01 21:51:23 UTC  

If you do, I can refer you for a discount, I think

2019-01-01 23:32:14 UTC  

@NuclearReactionary @VinceChaos vast majority of new front end devs in my experience now are coming out of code bootcamps, good choice!

2019-01-01 23:34:28 UTC  

starting salary at my company for fresh code camp grads is around 65-70k

2019-01-02 00:50:36 UTC  

Good to hear @ThisIsChris ! Do you know anyone that did Treehouse, specifically?

2019-01-02 00:53:17 UTC  

@NuclearReactionary I know a lot of people who've used Tree House to learn tools, myself included, but this is the first I'm hearing of their credential.

The main thing I would look for from a bootcamp graduate is do you have a portfolio to present? Most code camps spend a lot of time getting you to develop one.

2019-01-02 00:54:06 UTC  

Ok. Yeah, Treehouse does that. And like I said, a friend of mine said he thinks it represents real world work.
