Python for first programming / web development job I think that it is particularly difficult to get your first job in your favorite technology. With 3-5 years of software dev experience, you may find yourself more attractive to those few Python employers out there, particularly when they see your enthusiasm for Python. |

How old is “too old”? Glad my experience was encouraging to you. I'm forty now, still really enjoy programming, and no longer have a junior salary. Hope it goes well with you. |

What are the advantages of Maven when it comes to single man, educational projects I'm curious about the close vote here. This seems like a completely legitimate question to me. |

A programmer should concentrate on at least how many languages? @Den I didn't learn Python to get a job at a cool Python start-up. I learned Python because Java is lousy for many small tasks that can be easily automated with a scripting language. |

Is Ubuntu workable as a laptop for an IT consultant? @GlenPeterson Well, sort-of. I'm no longer a consultant, I work at a smallish tech company now. I have been using Ubuntu professionally for 9 months now, and its been a very positive experience. A nice aspect of working here is that at least 30% of the devs use Ubuntu here, so there is plenty of support for Ubuntu issue. |
