@bereachad oh and btw, I wouldn't use the name for verifying, at the very least attached a primary key of a unique number to each user. There are many bugs and security holes made by using the name as an identifier

@bereachad
oh no we use GUID
its just an example, we don't actually use name
Where do you guys take classes?
David Castner
@davidjcastner
oh okay perfect, just double checking, I might of made that mistake when I first started
Montgomery County Community College
James Peruggia
@bereachad
what do they focus on there? Java or C++, where I went to college it was a C++ shop
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
Java shop
We have a several MCCC students and some Delaware County Community College students that I'm aware of.
One person finished freeCodeCamp front end and has a job now. One person went through Udacity and has a job now.
It's a wide range of students xD

holy crap ... free code camp is 2080 hours? I had no idea. That's an entire year of full time work...
If I can set aside 20 hours a week it will only take me two years
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
For some things is a great overestimation imo.
You already have coding background. Some sections you are gonna FLY through.
Robert Marcy
@Ryzilynt
so it is 2080 hours equivalent? they dont require that many hours be logged?
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
No. They made educated guesses about how long each section would take. Average case (maybe leaning towards worst case). Then added up all the sections.
you don't even "need" to do all the sections to get the cert if you have background. The "get the cert" page will say what sections need to be done.

seems like a pretty cool oppurtunity
Robert Marcy
@Ryzilynt
ok, so far i'm up to section 60 ... where is everyone else? how far do i need to go to catch up?
Robert Marcy
@Ryzilynt
ok , up to 81 , calling it a night
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
All over the place really. Some just started. One finished front end that I know of. I'm close to finishing frontend. I'm not sure where David is. I'd say most people are probably in the big JavaScript section though.

@Ryzilynt
I think I'm almost finished the cat phone app. Someone already sent me brownie points for helping in chat , what can I buy with those ? :)
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
Ha! They add to your total points in the upper right of your screen and fill in that block on your profile page.
@MontBot will do that too xD
thanks @Ryzilynt
MontBot
@MontBot
lilyheart sends brownie points to @ryzilynt :sparkles: :thumbsup: :sparkles:
Tho I've been meaning to change it from brownie to cookie... cuz it's a cookie pictures xD (Or @SimplyPhy was gonna before he was swallowed up by his new job :laughing: )
MontBot likes to sleep a lot however and you have to wake them up if you want something xD The web address is in the header message of the chat room. Someday I'll move them over to somewhere where they can always be awake. montbot.herokuapp.com
I'm off to get ready for school!
