We use BitBucket here at the shop. It has a better licensing model as well. However, if your repo is going to be public facing, I have read that GitHub is better for that.

I don't know about Griff, but I use BitBucket because it it's free, and still allows me to have private repos, unlike GitHub, when I last looked.

Oh wow! Finally upgraded my laptop with an SSD and 8 Gig. Build time dropped by 43%! Da*n, technology, you are impressive!
Maybe some more coding in the future, and possibly another article or two because of the additions! Hope you are all having fun. Tried some gin because of some of the posts in here, but can't say I'll ever be a fan  I think I'd get sick before drunk!
That's all for this brief exclamation. Happy coding!

I learned a few programming skills on my own, not on the job, but through my own coding and analysis of source code samples, like .NET, C#, Java, etc. Is it OK to put "familiar with .NET, C#, Java" on my resume. Usually, "familiar with" means "comfortable with", even though some dictionaries suggest it means "to have a good knowledge of".
This issue refers to the section with general skills, the experience section would list the on-the-job skills.

I can't imagine what goes on in recruiters/screeners' heads, but if I were interviewing you and saw the term "familiar with," that would "register" as an ambiguous term, and would make me immediately want to question you in in detail on what your "familiarity" was, exactly.
imho, "have specific experience with" is less ambiguous.
imho, it is always wiser to claim you know less, and demonstrate you know more, than to claim you know more and then be able to demonstrate less.

that's almost a quote from a Bond Film isn't it - Im sure it was John Cleese playing the part, and a repartee between him and Bond was along the lines of 'being smarter than you look is better than looking smarter than you are'

Nah, it means "I read about it in a blog a while back".
If you have experience with something, then say "experience".

"Familiar with", typically means:
Capable of keying in, saving to a file, building and executing "Hello World", in the language mentioned.

If it's just a summary in the form of a list, I just tend to put it in a sentence with a lot of commas!
If it's more detailed I like to try to include the context - e.g.
I wrote a personal website using ASP.Net 4 using C# for the family photo album.
I wrote PooperPig (blah about that) in Objective C, and recently converted it to C++
I wrote DigiTVTimer (blah about that) in Delphi 5.0
If it is "I read a blog about it once" I don't mention it at all.

No. Put a specific # of months/years of actual working with and indicate which language/framework versions. If you can, pick one or two language / framework features you have worked specifically with, for example, threading, Linq, async, etc.

No, a misplaced attempt at humor would have been if I stated concern for the accessibility of Tier 1 technical support for various American companies that feel compelled to offshore that kind of job.
