My Failure One (or rather many times) that I've failed this semester has to be in my Programming class. We get lab assignments almost every week, and when we don't, we usually get a big project. And from the very first lab assignment, I noticed the challenge that this class was going to be. The Professor, Joshua Fox The Great, has a rather interesting philosophy: he doesn't teach everything we'll ever need for our assignments or projects, just a good amount. If there are any specifics that we need (or as it is in most cases we don't need but still want to use) that's up to us to learn, research, and implement. And no, that's not a complaint. He is arguably the best instructor in U.F, let alone the CISE department. (Sorry Dr. Pryor) In every assignment, there was always that time when I thought this was harder than I had ever expected, after (surprisingly) cruising through Programming 1 without a problem. Yet, after an increasing amount of time with ever...
The Good 🙂, The Bad 😕, & The Ugly 👹 The Good 🙂 For me, some of the good moments were when I made videos. Whether it was the Secret Sauce video, or any of the Elevator Pitches, it was always fun, which is also why I put everything I had into it. If you have watched them, you'll realize that, excluding the first one, I put some thought into how I edited the videos. I'm not saying the editing is good, but it's there: background music that fades in and out, custom thumbnail, custom end cards, even a little effect when I made the joke about Wells Fargo in the second pitch. Or in the secret sauce video, all the cuts from one person to the other, making it seem like real interviews, the special screens for the voice recordings (which by the way costed a fortune). That's what I do. I enjoy it, whether it is a lot of work or not. The Bad 😕 I don't think I've had many bad experiences, but if I must choose, I would say it was anytime we were assigned ...
Who I am My name is Carlos Valencia. I am a Comp. Science major in the I.A. Some of my talents include analyzing information (sometimes too much), learning fast, flexibility in working environments, and different languages. I want to become a software developer, be it an independent one or in a tech company. I would hope that, if this business was to be launched, it was a catalyst for my career as a developer, and I would also hope that one of the big techies saw it, and tried to make their own version of it, because that means it’s working. What I offer I offer a better way to manage mobile banking, investments, and finances in the form of an app that acts as a global portal, like Canvas is for schools. From the app, you can access all your accounts, even if they are in different banks. This can standardize mobile banking, giving all banks access to the same features within the app, and making all bank pages easy to use. By doing this, security can be increased. If the por...
