Do the bike companies have API's as well or how'd you manage to get the data?

I had a similar experience. I was asked to do some coding, got hung up on one of the questions.

Right on the spot I was told I wasn't a perfect match. Not directly saying it but definitely implying it, they said they needed someone who can actually code.

I guess having deployed multiple projects and code to show for it isn't worth anything if you can't code a variation of fizz buzz.

The hiring practice is a little off. If anyone ever asks me for advice on job hunting, I'll definitely tell them to exhaust all networking outlets e.g. programing meets, hackathons, friends of friends, before applying directly.

where are you located?

"or any other nasty way Vimmers have to use because of our archaic, ingrained keystrokes.”

This is where I stopped reading. If you're trying to convince me to use sublime try to be less subjective.

ZipRecruiter is a good one. It has some useful features that I haven't seen in other job board sites. Some features include, total number of candidates that have applied, including AND in the search query, and a few others. Worth giving them a look.

The main reason I asked, and why I'm a little skeptical, is I see a lot of places (in the Los Angeles area) that require additional knowledge in a myriad of other technologies; MySql, JavaScript, Html etc. along with Ruby/Rails or Python/Django.

I apologize for sounding brash, but this sounds a little too good to be true, almost DeVry ITtech ish...

Ooops. I don't know why I said the 15" maxes out at 8GB. What I meant to type was.. "My wallet maxes out at the price of 8GB's". The price on individual 8GB sticks are astronomical.

Its a delight using the 13" with a riser, external keyboard and trackpad. Lions new features, (full screen, swiping between desktops) really helps with productivity.

What you should consider is, the 13" maxes out at 4GB of ram where the 15" maxes out at 8GB (8G upgrade is around $50 dollars from amazon).

It all depends on you, do you want a light effective machine, or a powerhouse of computer power at the expense of weight.

My initial thought was...

If it has a .Count() and a .Remove(), it should have a .Clear()
