I recommend Appear.in http://appear.in


I second appear.in

Several times now I've been in a group chat where someone's audio or video isn't working so we go to appear.in and everything works perfectly


I'm writing what could potentially be a competitor to appear.in and I also recommend them :P .

They're definitely the cream of the WebRTC crop right now.


Definitely agree. If you're thinking that you're missing out on life then make the change, go down a tangential path. Do not go through life bitching & whining that you didn't make the most of an opportunity.

Take the sabbatical and go to Europe for 6 months. If it turns out to not be what you expected, so what, you've learned something and grown.


The only real expectation that I have is that I'll come out of it with tons of experiences. Who knows what'll happen or not happen.


Why not ask this question to the jHipster team?

The contributing guidelines are here:

There will always be someone who does something better than you, regardless of whether it is related to programming or not. Some people have more of an aptitude for a particular skill than you but that doesn't mean you're a failure, nor is it something to get depressed about. Rather than dwell on the knowledge that someone is better than you at something you enjoy, use it inspire & motivate yourself to improving your own ability.


Interesting article, but annoyed that it doesn't feature Norway in the country comparison. The Norwegian start-up market may be small, but it is growing.


As did I, though I started with a Commodore VIC-20.


When I was 7 my parents gave me a Commodore VIC-20 and after tiring of playing games, I wanted to make my own. Started out with copying game listings out of magazines in basic, then moved on to assembly, pascal, and then C.

Fast forward 30-ish years and I've been a developer for over 20 years coding games to enterprise applications and everything in-between.

To me its more a calling rather than a concious choice to be a programmer, like joining the seminary. now I spend my time mentoring younger developers and tinkering with new languages and things.


Similar path: I'm 30-ish as well and we had a C-64. Starting playing with it when I was 4 or 5, copying code out of code books before I could even really read. Also making lots of simple programs that would flash colors and fill the screen with "I AM AWESOME!".


The university of Liverpool has a number of decent online programmes in cooperation with laureate international. I'm currently on the MSc Web sciences & Big Data programme.

This looks very interesting. Are you a UK resident?


Something must be wrong, I get the Ubuntu default apache page.


Exactly.


The Summit in Dublin. 4-6 November http://summitdublin.com/

Was a great event last year, Elon Musk attended as well as a whole host of great speakers.

Food Summit & Night Summit were also part of the programme and a lot of fun.

Highly recommended.


I was in Dublin for the last summit and I have to say that it was a great experience. Highly recommend it. Also node conf europe is interesting http://nodeconfeu.com/#welcome


Looks amazing, I want to go.

Shame I cannot afford it at the moment. *sigh

Djangocon is always on my hit list of tech events to go to.
