made it solve some interesting problems. There are other reasons too, but

more time learning something else when C++ is not practical.</p>\\n\\n<p>I
|

1397

see a ton of Rubyists talking about Elixir and Node.js as somekind of wholesale

replacement for Ruby. I understand that the two newer systems provide interesting

interactions with threading systems. That does not seem like a reason to dump

1400

a whole language, a language with multiple independent healthy implementations

started learning Ruby a few months ago and I bought myself a Microsoft Kinect

remembered how much it tends to get on my nerves and how much I love Ruby,

so I thought &quot;<strong>Why not write some Kinect stuff with

|

1652
|

little bit of history first.</p>\\n\\n<p>I am a 32 year old with
|
|
1653
|
+
no college education. I currently work at a dead end job in a warehouse putting
|
|
1654
|
+
away boxes and making deliveries. I have always loved computers and have been
|
|
1655
|
+
making websites for friends and family for years. I never charged, I just
|
|
1656
|
+
did it for the challenge and to learn something new. About 6 months ago I
|
|
1657
|
+
a friend turned me on to Reddit and shortly after I discovered r/webdev. At
|
|
1658
|
+
the time I was messing around with PHP and Wordpress and had never heard of
|
|
1659
|
+
Ruby or Python. After a few weeks of hanging around on r/webdev I discovered
|
|
1660
|
+
Ruby and the Rails framework. I dived in and have been trying to teach myself
|
|
1661
|
+
Ruby and Rails.</p>\\n\\n<p>Up until a few months ago I had been
|
|
1662
|
+
a little depressed where my life had ended up. When I found Ruby I thought
|
|
1663
|
+
maybe there might be a chance turn my hobby into a career. Currently I am
|
|
1664
|
+
on my second read through of Eloquent Ruby and have done the the Ruby tutorial.
|
|
1665
|
+
I practice and study every day. I try to come up with small projects to work
|
|
1666
|
+
on to try the new concepts I learn and to heIp me retain the what I read.
|
|
1667
|
+
I have been considering signing up for one of the many Rails dev camps to
|
|
1668
|
+
help accelerate my path into the industry.</p>\\n\\n<p>My fear
|
|
1669
|
+
is that I&#39;ll never be taken seriously when I finally apply for a job.
|
|
1670
|
+
Mainly because I have no programing experience and I don&#39;t have a
|
|
1671
|
+
CS degree.</p>\\n\\n<p>So tell me r/ruby... can I make this a
|
|
1672
|
+
reality? </p>\\n\\n<p>I&#39;m not trying to become the next
|
|
1673
|
+
Zuckerberg or create the next Instagram. I just want a career where I love
|
|
1674
|
+
what I do and I have an opportunity to make a small difference in the world.</p>\\n\\n<p>TLDR;
|
|
1675
|
+
I&#39;m 32 no college eduction and I want to be a Ruby/Rails dev. Do I
|
|
1676
|
+
have a chance? Give it to me straight.</p>\\n</div><!-- SC_ON

before I dig myself any deeper into a hole.\\n\\nA little bit of history first.\\n\\nI
|
|
1679
|
+
am a 32 year old with no college education. I currently work at a dead end
|
|
1680
|
+
job in a warehouse putting away boxes and making deliveries. I have always
|
|
1681
|
+
loved computers and have been making websites for friends and family for years.
|
|
1682
|
+
I never charged, I just did it for the challenge and to learn something new.
|
|
1683
|
+
About 6 months ago I a friend turned me on to Reddit and shortly after I discovered
|
|
1684
|
+
r/webdev. At the time I was messing around with PHP and Wordpress and had
|
|
1685
|
+
never heard of Ruby or Python. After a few weeks of hanging around on r/webdev
|
|
1686
|
+
I discovered Ruby and the Rails framework. I dived in and have been trying
|
|
1687
|
+
to teach myself Ruby and Rails.\\n\\nUp until a few months ago I had been
|
|
1688
|
+
a little depressed where my life had ended up. When I found Ruby I thought
|
|
1689
|
+
maybe there might be a chance turn my hobby into a career. Currently I am
|
|
1690
|
+
on my second read through of Eloquent Ruby and have done the the Ruby tutorial.
|
|
1691
|
+
I practice and study every day. I try to come up with small projects to work
|
|
1692
|
+
on to try the new concepts I learn and to heIp me retain the what I read.
|
|
1693
|
+
I have been considering signing up for one of the many Rails dev camps to
|
|
1694
|
+
help accelerate my path into the industry.\\n\\nMy fear is that I'll never
|
|
1695
|
+
be taken seriously when I finally apply for a job. Mainly because I have no
|
|
1696
|
+
programing experience and I don't have a CS degree.\\n\\nSo tell me r/ruby...
|
|
1697
|
+
can I make this a reality? \\n\\nI'm not trying to become the next Zuckerberg
|
|
1698
|
+
or create the next Instagram. I just want a career where I love what I do
|
|
1699
|
+
and I have an opportunity to make a small difference in the world.\\n\\nTLDR;
|
|
1700
|
+
I'm 32 no college eduction and I want to be a Ruby/Rails dev. Do I have a
|
|
1701
|
+
chance? Give it to me straight.\", \"likes\": null, \"secure_media\": null,

need to maintain a state because the app is AJAX based so once a user is on

a page all the rest happens in the background. The main concern is how can

I securely transfer data between the client and the sinatra app without someone

in the middle sniffing the data? And how can I ensure that only authorized
