I want to get a feel for what work at a startup is like. Would anyone who works at a startup mind if I shadowed them for a day? Or does anyone know anyone who they think would be interested? I'm not sure if I'm good enough to be useful, but if I could be of any use I'd love to write some code for you! (I've been teaching myself to code on and off for the past year and a half or so. I'd classify my skills as a strong beginner/weak intermediate developer. I know HTML, CSS, JS/jQuery, Ruby and Rails. I built a few sites before - https://github.com/adamzerner?tab=repositories.
Edit: I'm also considering moving to SF after Fullstack. There's a lot of good tech companies there, and I really like the culture. So I also want to get a feel for what it'd be like living in SF. I've visited before and have done all the touristy things, but I want to get a feel for what it'd be like living there. I was thinking of visiting a hacker house and some co-working spaces, but don't know what else would be useful. Any ideas?
Thanks!
