There is currently not a trial option, but it is a 30-day money back guarantee, so if the service doesn't work, you can just let us know and you'll get a full refund. Python/Django work yes, but currently no on the data science.

Same thing as I mentioned in my other comment. Freelancing is sometimes a good fit for people in your position. To help you get on your feet, I created a website called FreelanceInbox.com that is designed to help freelancers find quality leads without having to spend time a lot of time searching.

Have you considered picking up freelance node.js work? I run a website called FreelanceInbox.com that is designed to help freelancers find quality leads without having to spend time a lot of time searching. You could probably handle small projects and develop your skills that way.

Cool story, way to try something you are interested in!

This is the only organizational tool I use and it is awesome! Never been one for saving things to say Evernote or Pocket, but because the drag and drop is so intuitive and easy, I use this everyday.

It looks like it charges $.50 on top of Stripe. When you work with Stripe you still have to write a little bit of code to request the charge from your backend. SnappyCheckout looks to be a wrapper around Stripe (and Paypal) that takes care of that extra code you would normally have to write.

Some insightful comments. I think another habit of successful entrepreneurs is knowing when to give up and when to power through.

Interesting perspective on kindness. Worth a read!

It's interesting, but your chances of getting a job are very dependent on how well you perform during the 30 minutes they throw small algorithmic questions at you. This isn't to say that alone will get you a job, but if you bomb that part of the interview, it's basically over.
