Do you charge by the hour?
By the yard, it's easier that way.
The company that I work for have an offsite learning allowance which allows us to essentially get paid to learn something.
I've been taking a Udemy course on NodeJS and I have learned a ton. I'm excited to have this new skill in my pocket.
Congrulations
Skills go stale if they aren't used. I've written programs using JQuery and Cordova, but I only barely remember how.
So you postulate that skills are more like cakes than like biscuits?Quote:

This post does not appear, and you are not reading it.
Biscuits ("cookies" in American) go soft instead of stale. There is no pastry involved with biscuits or cakes in the civilised world, as you well know.Quote:

Putting cakes and biscuits in the same container is therefore prohibited by international convention for what I hope you will consider to be very obvious safety reasons.
This was the definition McVities used to avoid VAT on Jaffa cakes. There was actually a court case about it that has established the definition of a cake vs a biscuit in British law.
Personally, I think it's a huge miscarriage of justice. The definition of a biscuit should be that it's cooked twice, which is literally what "biscuit" means.
But the law is, of course, an ass. Which way too long a post for post race, should sufficiently set up Shaggy to say something about ass-biscuits.
Of course it went to court over how a tax would be applied.
Hurricane season is over. Thank the Lord.
HA! I don't live in the civilized world. I live in Idaho, and in a desert, at that. Everything loses moisture out here, even dust.Quote:

It tells me Invalid attachment.
The forum software is probably having trouble figuring out what kind of attachment it is.
It's a bun, isn't it? They get invalid if you sit on them for too long.Quote:
