This week we were joined by by the amazing designer and “pixel perfectionist” Allison House. Allison has worked with a number of big web/tech education companies like Treehouse and Code Academy. We talk about (roughly in order):

News’n'Links

• Prism
• Other podcasts Chris likes

Q & A

• How do you get better at Photoshop?
• How often should you change jobs?
• Should you stick with what you know to get work done, or always be learning?
• What are the new layout methods and when can we start using them?
• Do we use CSS grid systems?
• Can you transition pseudo elements? (not really, yet)
• What is the benefit of semantic markup? Why is HTML5 even a thing?
