Be prepared, and ask specific questions. When know your mentor, your goals, and your problems, it's easier to figure out how they might help you. Also, take notes and follow up.

I think Gary Vaynerchuk can give you some help:

After banning it and getting dizzy from watching some bad Prezi presentations, you'll want PowerPoint back.


Prezi focuses too much on transitions between the slides and I really don't like it much


Happened a couple of times here too, just hit back and go on.


With all these online courses going on, the recruiting will change. Not now, but it will.

I'm really into this kind of teaching, and I hope it helps the poor, cause there's lots of job openings but not enough talent.

This is just one step, a big one, but not the hole solution.


I agree, it would be amazing if some forward-thinking recruiting firm went by your codeacademy score, stanford online course mark and SO rep.


Double awesome!


Brain tumor.


From what, and how is that worse than wearing a bluetooth headset, or having your phone against your hip/thigh all day?

We have a looot of radio waves around us all the time


No only a keylogger, but a "soundlogger" would also work.

Checking long posts on news sites or blogs just to make sure it is the writer would be interesting, but boring and not worth it.


For interesting research here, see: Keyboard Acoustic Emanations Revisited, Li Zhuang, Feng Zhou, J. D. Tygar

http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~tygar/keyboard.htm

    "We examine the problem of keyboard acoustic emanations.
    We present a novel attack taking as input a 10-minute sound recording of a user
    typing English text using a keyboard, and then recover- ing up to 96% of typed
    characters. There is no need for a labeled training recording. Moreover the
    recognizer bootstrapped this way can even recognize random text such as
    passwords: In our experi- ments, 90% of 5-character random passwords using only
    letters can be generated in fewer than 20 attempts by an adversary; 80% of 10-
    character passwords can be generated in fewer than 75 attempts.


Now that would be magical - visit a website and start making comments, after a period of time it'd create an account for you with no input at all.

Now, visit it from a different browser or computer and make another comment - it would log you in as you again, somehow.

Errors would likely make it unpractical, but it'd be an amusing demo for the unaware.


PR, link bait or whatever you think about it... you gotta agree it sure is a fun way to promote change.
