I vaguely remember seeing the homepage of a quantified self nerd that showed all his live stats - ecg, hydration, activity and stuff like that. I can't seem to find it though. It was absolutely beautiful. Then again, like the other arguments made here, I don't know what one can do
I haven't been able to wrap my mind around the whole 'flat' concept. Could someone please explain what 'flat' really means. The only thing that I really notice about flat design that stands out is the color scheme and the don't-care-about-layers philosophy.
I had the same question - I study in a system that emphasizes on rote and knowledge rather than on understanding. I graduate with a bachelors in CS in a few months and am extremely unhappy with the education I've gotten. I plan on taking a year off and studying on my own - starting CS from scratch really, taking a couple of Udacity/Coursera classes and possibly finding a job/internship at a startup near where I live, hoping that it would lead to something of an epiphany or a life changing experience.
