OK, I think I see what's happening. There's some other software that overrode the *.dev cert. I'll remove that and see if it works. Thanks for your help!

Very nice! What was the most challenging part of doing this? What lessons, if any, did you learn from this that you think others could benefit from? Anything that will help you with your software development skills?

There are some training plans out there to get you from "couch to pullup". The trick, essentially, is to start from the top and lower yourself down as slowly as you can. After a while, you start to use resistance bands to reduce t

In addition to what you just said, it's significantly faster to sign than it is to type/text, not to mention the nuances of face-to-face communication that can get lost in a text-based world!

I loved the original Guild Wars. There was a decent solo storyline, and then you could play with friends. I've had a hard time making friends on other MMOs... One thing that instantly turns me off is micro-transactions. I'm happy

This is essentially a negotiation, and I can't distill all of negotiation theory into a few hundred words, but here's a bit of advice. Two (and a half) things: 1) This is more of a "how to approach the conversation" piec

I don't have a lot of specific advice for you. It sounds like maybe code isn't clicking as much as you think it should, and that's stressing you out in a negative way. You shouldn't be stressed out like that about your j

"Lonesome Dove" is one of my favorite books of all time. Like others, I put it off for a long time, but I recently read it last year and completely fell in love (contrary to McMurtry's aims!). If you have any interest in west

There are tons of CLI tools that might be useful. Personally, my go-to side project is to build a MUD (an online text-based multiplayer RPG, totally free. To play around with a popular one, type this in your terminal: telnet avatar.outland.

This post is great. I love MUDs so much. I fell in love with them in the late 90s when I was finishing up high school. My favorite MUD was A.V.A.T.A.R., which I think is still around. (Update: I checked. It's still there!) The best par

I think it might help to actually formulate a goal, like, say, run 5K or bike 100 miles or do 100 pushups at once or something, and then build a workout regimen that will get you to that point. In my own experience, I've found that &qu

Personally, I use tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment. But more practically, I think the right thing to do is use an opinionated formatter (like Go's gofmt or similar) and enforce that across the teams that you work with. Life&#

Above all, it's about consistency. Make a schedule and KEEP TO IT. No exceptions. You can build rest days into your schedule, but if today is leg day, don't skip it for anything except illness or injury. I personally run at least
