InitialDigital – Andy Newman. Learning To Code – Week Three. January 11, 2015. Monday saw our return to Makers Academy after a two week Christmas break. As well as the challenges set by Makers I spent some time on Codewars. This was good exercise, not only does it challenge you to code some interesting topics, when you’ve got it working you get to see how cleverer people have also solved it – so you can scaffold you’re learning pretty quickly. Which is my first learning point…. The added aspect of this w...

InitialDigital – Andy Newman. Learning to Code – Week Twelve. March 26, 2015. Finding Work is Hard Work. After the adrenaline buzz that was weeks 10 and 11. Working on our final projects, an easy week 12 would have been very welcome. However that’s not the Makers’ way! Week 12 was hiring week where the code coaches take a step back and the career and hiring side of the team (Ruben and Will) to kick us into shape for the job market. Our ‘Unfair’ Advantage. Code On The Beach. After a more subdued Friday ni...

InitialDigital – Andy Newman. IPhone 6 vs 5: 3 design features Apple got wrong. December 17, 2014. I upgraded from a 5 to a 6 at launch 3 months ago. I like the 6 but don’t love it, for three key reasons;. The iPhone 6 feels flimsy. The iPhone 5 was solid. Mine has bent – by the volume control – see the photo below. The material of the casing feels too malleable. The metal casing of the iPhone 5 made it feel armoured, the iPhone 6 feels flimsy. Learning to Code – Week One. December 13, 2014. Keep it simp...

I was in a team with Matteo, Jack, Hannah and Marcin. We’d all expressed an interest in working with beacons, but to be honest, none of us actually had much idea what a beacon was. We thought of plenty of ideas, such as;. There were lots of challenges with this;. How would we know that people arrived / left a party? So we bui...
