Take this opportunity to practice presenting a topic to a less advanced audience.
Instead of looking down from on high and calling other people stupid you could try to make your material more accessible to your intended recipient.
You'll have to talk to all kinds of people in your professional life and just calling them stupid won't cut it -
@jeeper yes indeed

With modern editors I feel you get more value from the longer method names.
Document.getElementById() is much more intuitive to read and understand for the next programmer who you hand the project over to compared to $(#) -

Maybe you're just not a very excitable person. That's okay too

@wvitguy the book is very opinionated. A very good read to be sure but don't read it as a definitive guide. Think about the general principles it discusses and do what makes sense to you
-
Boy scout rule: leave things cleaner than you found them. Those classes probably weren't always so neat and orderly.
Just do this from now on as much as time permits: every time you need to edit a class or script to add or remove something spend 5 to 10 minutes cleaning up and improving its structure.
As an added benefit this will keep the code more fresh in your memory as you continue to build -
@Kryptic The base estimate is always the average, yes. However, I calculate the standard deviation based on the 3 estimates and add that to the average once, for every degree of significant uncertainty.

"low" uncertainty means "use the average value"
mid is 1 deviation.
high is 2 deviations.
and here is the code used to calculate the estimates: https://pastebin.com/0F4y2gRK
Do note that "standard deviations" are more precise the larger your data-set.
I've found however, that my "low estimates" are always too short, so the "average" number is more often than not closer to the "real low" while the high estimate lands somewhere near the uncertainty groups. -
Sounds like management problem not a meeting problem. Daily stand-up can be very good for planning the day's work

I made a small system for estimating. Give 3 estimates. 1 low-ball (if things are easier than expected). My actual estimate based on intuition. A high estimate (if nothing went right). Then my base estimate is the average of these. From the average I add 1 standard deviation (from the 3 estimates) of time for every degree of significant uncertainty.
This approach has worked out ok for me so far -

@sebastian the problem isn't that your email is insecure. The problem is the implication of your password being stored unencrypted at the site you signed up with

Maybe they want to keep the option of swapping out their custom css with a bootstrap skin later on, so they reuse the class names?

@xalez Java 😁

Honestly that sounds like a perfectly timed demo of one of the advantages

@J4s0n Looks promising. I already have a few angular 2 web apps and Ionic is one of the frameworks I've listed as having potential for helping me publish them as hybrid apps.

@J4s0n How hard is it to deploy a hybrid angular 2 app to google play using Ionic?

aList = range (0,20)
for a in aList:

Why is this not good enough? -
