Just losing weight is fairly easy.
Keeping low body-fat % while maintaining decent amount of muscle is what is really challenging.
I know people who were able to dunk in high school as teenagers and were very explosive. Than they started weight lifing regime, lifted hard for a decade (solid weights on compund movements), still can't really dunk no more, while they should be even more explosive.
Thing is, pylometrics is still nr. 1 for most explosivnes and also olimpic lifting, but not classis weight lifting, strength is not power.
+EDIT: This guy on the video does far more than just DL to achive what he does, he is also very competent at calisthenics, he does one leg hill jums and other extremely difficult exercises ... Claiming this is a product of solely DL is misinforming.
So ... javascript is created by homophobe :(
If you can, go study at college/uni ... It might not be optimal optimal for you, but neither are other options.
I despise Jobs completely. FIXED.
This guy sounds like a douche.
I agree. What is considered left in America is still right in most of Europe.
That's awesome, I quit! :)
Americans seems pretty short nowadays compared to some countries in Europe, where average is near 5-11 and a few over 6'. Still a few short countries here in Europe too.
So, forced kiss and fingering in public is no big deal, huh?
I tried to demonstrate ridiculousness of off-topic ad-hominem attack of posts author by providing more off-topic.
this.
You don't know his height/bodyfat.
Depends on where you live.
"People with money aren't viewed as investors, but crooks."
Well, 90% of them are crooks.
Mostly highschool kids or students with subvention eat there.
Prices aren't considered low and you can actually get a quality meal for same price.
I felt like author points out as being nice and good are exclusive traits. In most cases, however, they complement.
Because most of them are software/computer engineers who also program as one of their skills.
I am a soon to graduate CS student, while I know a lot of theory about algorithms, data structures, parallel processing, numerical methods , architecture etc., sites like codecademy/treehouse/codeschool are great supplement. At university I learned basics of programming in java/C but only used them in some theoretical projects to learn about some algorithm/concept. Those sites are great to get into more practical aspect of computing and if you know basics of CS are a great way to pick up new language/framework/field.
From my observations, nothing from Microsoft is considered cool.
What about front end coding? Putting design into js/html/css? Is that also a domain of a backend developer or designer? I am just asking because I am really not sure.
So if you don't hate shopping you are not a man?
A CS science degree will give you a broader view of computer science field and how to approach solving problems which is great but they do not focus programming/coding in particular, especially mobile. They just introduce you programming as one of many tools in CS. Best you can do is get a degree + work on your coding skills on your own on codecademy or something like that.
However if you want to just learn to code as quickly as possible than just start on a site like codecademy, or my personal favorite, treehouse. They also have mobile(ios, android) courses, but they focus on web. You will probably need both, and other tutorials to really learn. You can get a refferal link for 50% discount for first month in my profile.
Me too, those are great for learning alone.
I use all of those 3: Codecademy, Treehouse and CodeSchool.
I think codecademy is best for starting a new topic, next stop is treehouse because it goes into details and at last codechool, because it cover a lot in a short lesson.
If anyone need 50% of first moth at the threehouse, click on my profile.
People should be educated enough to know what they can expect from a computer - by learning coding they would get a deeper view into those things - not everyone would become a professional coder. And even then, every good professional create even more jobs - you can't do everything by yourself even if you know how too. Also it is for greater good - I think it is a step to happier society with more decent life.
That is wrong attitude.
I think these days is relatevely easy to get basics down with sites like codecademy, codeschool, teamtreehouse and such. At least in web developement. You can get the idea how it all works, how to do simple stuff.
To me, the biggest challenge is to get bigger picture of technology I am using -> once I understand that learning is much faster.
Nice, always nice to see new (and free) codeschool courses. I wish Codeschool would do Android course since I found them a bit more entertaining then teamTreehouse.
Sad to see this.
