Yea it's maybe little of an overkill, worked with my own bcrypt functions in php, done some cryptography in python and used it on a few live working "casemanagers" for a few companies. Idk, maybe I remove it. Quite funny how you question my skills because I just installed RoR and posted about it?

Installing RoR and posting about it has nothing to do with questioning some of your skills, maybe do 'levels' of your skills (proficient, good at it, something I know a bit but I have little experience and something I touch once in a while).
It's just my own opinion but I think if was looking for someone to work for/with me I would question their skills when they put something so complicated to know in their 'main' (?) skills.

I don't like that whole...
PHP SKILLS: 67%
HTML SKILLZ: 100%!
CSS SKILLZ: 85%
...sort of thing. If you're not [B]good[/B] at something, don't put it on/in your portfolio.
It's easy to come across as conceited if you rate yourself 100% for everything, and like you said - if you don't rate yourself high enough, it could potentially make you [i]less[/i] employable. Plus, they're just arbitrary numbers; they mean absolutely nothing.

Plz specify DPI so I know how many pixels of C++ you have
I wasn't speaking of quantitative but qualitative:
-What I master
-What I'm good with
-What I love, but still need more experience
I think this is a great way to show your major and minor skills. This could be beneficial if a employer checks out your portfolio, "Oh, this guy wants to know more about php and mysql, we could give him frontend position and train him to help us at backend".
Of course you can't just start to write bullshit on your "love" skills like "It would be awesome to work with brainfuck".

How safe is it to assume that most people can play a h.264 video in their browser?
[QUOTE=Giraffen93;42842917]How safe is it to assume that most people can play a h.264 video in their browser?[/QUOTE]
If you include a fallback flash player(flash can play h.264) then pretty safe.

Whats your target audience?
I had a discussion with a friend few days ago. I used some css property that isn't supported in IE8. The website is for a game we are working on. He got kinda mad when I told him I don't care about IE8 users and told me I'm acting as if I don't want the game to become popular.
I explained to him that the majority of gamers use either firefox or chrome and have it updated to the latest version. The majority of gamers use an operating system that has IE9 or higher as default. There is no reason to make a website compatible for old browsers if you know your audience.

added a link to the vimeo page in the end, but most major browsers seem to handle h264, even android

old people, students
most have it updated so it shouldn't be a problem

I can say, personally, that because I use Firefox on Linux I can't view it in the browser. If you offer an easy way to stream to an external player, or offer WebM or something else more open I'd be able to watch no problem. Then again I'm probably a corner case that you can just (rightfully) disregard :v:
Working on a one-page website landing page over here: [URL="http://vm-0.cyberpew.kd.io"]http://vm-0.cyberpew.kd.io[/URL]
Actually the first website that I'm creating by myself, so I personally think it isn't too bad.
Now that the actual design itself is done, I'm going to split up sections of the one-page style with this jquery plugin: [URL="https://github.com/peachananr/onepage-scroll"]https://github.com/peachananr/onepage-scroll[/URL]
However, have not quite figured how to do that yet. :v:
Anyone see anything I could improve/any flaws that you see?

When he says h.264, thats the video encoding. webm is just a container for the video/audio.

The copyright font should be smaller, it stands out too much if you ask me.
Also I'm not sure about that kind of gray, it doesn't look appealing however I don't know what you could do to fix that.

video is live, should work for everything

A bit more work on my portfolio but I have a question.
How should I display my level of skill, the way as I have it now or in a complete other way?
[QUOTE=RusselG;42848230]When he says h.264, thats the video encoding. webm is just a container for the video/audio.[/QUOTE]
Yes but generally (from the wikipedia page) "A WebM file consists of VP8 video and Vorbis audio streams" which does not include MPEG-4 encoded video, which my browser can't decode. Personally it make no difference whether I see the video in the browser or an external player, and in fact I usually prefer it in my own player where I get a correct color representation and good fullscreen support.
tl;dr I only mentioned it because someone asked

I like it, however, I'd brighten the grey content area a bit more. It looks a bit dull compared to the colorful elements.
On a related note, what do you think about Daala?

i never really got the point of frameworks
it's fun to code, why remove half of it?

[QUOTE=thejjokerr;42854856]Time is money for a company, if it's just your hobby then you're right, you dont HAVE to use a framework, coding is fun.

That's a [B]horrible[/B] attitude for an employee to have. You should always want to work as efficiently as possible, because if you're not doing that, you're wasting the business' time and money.

Because nothing you write on your own will be even remotely as high quality and battle tested as something like Rails that has been around for 10 years and has contributions from over 3500 different people.
Frameworks provide a system for you to build off of so that you can focus on writing your application instead of the boilerplate to support it. They are also nice because they promote/enforce conventions which is [B]very[/B] useful to have when you are working with other developers.
Coding is fun. Writing a user login system 100 times is not fun. You're needlessly reinventing the wheel and I guarantee that the quality of your work is suffering because of it.
