nothing wrong with that, but CSS-tricks is a wordpress blog where he writes about, ykno, CSS and what hes good at to sell himself as a developer, and then puts effort into his layout and implementing his skills into his landing page.

Patricia however is selling consultation as an RoR ENGINEER with a presscustomizr wordpress template after stating she doesn't "just know html and css". like where the hell is she showcasing any of her skillsets, wheres a blog talking about one of her projects, maybe a gem she likes or one she made herself, wheres the link to her github or heroku (as an RoR "engineer" wtf, you need to know Git where's your github) wheres a blog talking about a function or device she built, and if I click consultation and fill out the twitter bootstrap form is she gonna refer me to presscustomizr.com or is she gonna refer me to Bloc

I dont know a sane person that would hire a Ruby developer that didnt have a github.

Don't be fooled by the snake oil salesman, seriously, patricia either fell for or is just a part of a for-profit marketing scam and this sub/YOU are their target.
