From my personal experience, though ive never put a full effort into online dating, it doesnt seem too different now that i have a full time job vs when i was on disability. Granted i do have more to talk about now with work, a house ect, but i used to talk about school and hobbies when i wasnt working. I will say it seems like more professional women are open to engaging conversation but it could be we have more in common now... just my thoughts.

Me neither, except for some soccer now and again. I propose a coding competition open only to PWD. All projects must be done in their skivvies. Now this is a competition i can win! Though rugby is hella fun too.

Is software engineering geeky enough for this club? Anything from AI to Robotics i'm about and can do Windows/Android stuff but trying to get away from the boring work. I have yet to see anyone gush over neural networks or discrete maths gosh! No but really im the only one in my group of friends into this stuff it can be painful to keep in all the time haha. Also saw some Starcraft talk in here, ive been grinding the comp ladder for a little now im back into it and taking a break from the gambit of battle royals flooding the scene. I used to stream sc2 on twitch with a hand cam and such, people were impressed a quad can make diamond in 1v1 with low apm. Was fun and i might get back into it.

Its not so much as the doors inside, but the entrance to the buildings (usually offices) that are heavy glass or metal. I was looking to see if there is a hinge or something that can be attached to relieve some weight but nothing.

Hi all,
Haven't been much of a poster, just a sneaky lurker, but i've began interviewing for work and have some questions for the fellow wheelers and devs feel free to chime in. So interviewing for a job lately, which has led me to notice every office i've gone to has doors that are just incredibly heavy, just too heavy for me. I went back to school for software so i dont have the limitations from being a quad but still find this to be pretty defeating. I'm fairly independent otherwise, and really for software wont need any accommodations except maybe a door man? Any working wheelers have this issue? How did you solve/ come to a solution? Open to any advice! Granted i know a bunch is in my head, confidence, yada yada, but its tough sometimes needing help for simple things and i sometimes feel employers have to see that as added work if they hire me.

It's funny, last week i started building just this app. A yelp based type rating system using google maps to search places and rate them on accessibility. Im working on a few projects so i didnt wanna post about it yet, but as things get together id love some feedback from everyone.

This man. Sounds like you need to work on you,then onto someone else. And lets face it, a girl isnt gonna fall out of the sky into your lap, and if your feeling sorry for yourself, she probably wont even want to stick around long enough. Gain your confidence then abuse that shit to be the babe magnet you can be. im more into boys which complicates things a bit boys, girls, stoves, aliens, its the same rules brotha, fix you first.

It will take time to get your head right, and it probably won't be easy. If you can, it'd be great if you can start a hobby that you enjoy doing, even though at first it can really suck when everything feels so difficult to do. This man.

IQ is no indicator of success in any area of life. It's a rush to find out you're in the top whatever percent... But in reality it bears few tangible gifts. not to mention unless professionally administered(even then) iq tests are meaningless and mostly fake. none, NONE, of those online tests are real

i agree on the wide spectrum but something about the "dev high" sounds exactly like bi-curious where the person normally wouldn't be normally into it, but while riding the high is def about it. i cant dig too deep as im not a dev nor bi-curious, but just an observation.
