As a software developer that mainly builds internal web applications (frontend and backend) with ReactJS, I've just started looking into improving my code with Typescript. I've seen it being praised far too much to not give it a

When I first picked up Unity3D to play with I was very frustrated as well. The more I used it the better of an understanding I got. I am still far from an expert but I was able to make some interesting projects to play around with at home

Coming from a similar background (front/back web), I also find Unity3D very enjoyable. My latest project was attempting to create a relatively simple VR horror game on the Oculus Go. I was able to create something pretty neat but ult

Sounds like a dream. I went from private office to WFH (2 years), and now back on-site in a cube farm. My focus, productivity and happiness went from high to very high, then all time low. The cubes I sit in are a mixed environment with d

I've actually begun doing this now, but the company has decided to eliminate all future remote jobs (our department was the experiment I suppose). I would like to pass this journal keeping idea to anyone else remote. It likely would

I'm on my 2nd week back on-site after being remote for nearly 2 years, it's been a tough transition. On-top of getting what feels like a large pay-cut (1 hour commute, car maintenance/fuel, etc) and having to deal with a cra

You are not alone. I haven't used LibreOffice in a few months but my last experience left me very frustrated. Unintuitive UI, glitchy/missing icons, etc. I figured it was just because I was more adjusted to MS Office having us

I work close to IT (being software) for a company ~400 people. We were doing a security audit and this is one of the things they tested. USB's were loaded up with curious sounding files that when opened alerted our IT department. It

I played Everquest some as a kid but when Everquest 2 came out I could not stop playing. I spent every extra minute I had playing that game to the point it nearly cost me my wife and kids... it was a low point in my life. The game offered y

I was a bit surprised by this as well. As a heavy ReactJS user I tend to avoid from the jQuery stuff. jQuery was ranked "most popular web framework" (48.7%) but it was also ranked 2nd place for "most dreaded web framework&qu

We had to pay $299 for the enterprise license to distribute iOS applications internally to just our staff[1]. This circumvented the App Store entirely and we used MDM tools (AirWatch) to distribute. Was this avoidable? I'm genuinely

I was gifted an Oculus Go for Christmas and typically use it to play games and watch VR YouTube, etc. I've always thought it would be cool to do some of my programming work in a VR space. Just picked up this app to try it out after y

Am I happy about a price hike? No.. but it still beats the hell out of cable which I found myself paying $100+/mo to watch mostly commercials. I couldn't take it anymore. I agree that the Netflix content can be hit-or-miss.. usua

Picked up an Oculus Go for Christmas as my first experience with VR. I've got to say its really neat. Really enjoy watching high quality 3D videos or playing some games that quite literally take you away to amazing worlds. Probably my

Fair enough about it not being in the spec. It does appear to be a part of Apples' "Human Interface Guidelines"[1], although these guidelines are pointed to native applications. It was just an unexpected regression that occu

I created an internal application for our company to use that is essentially a directory of staff members. I do most my development in Chrome but the bulk of the users are on iOS (Safari). I always find little nuances that I need to tweak

Its a sad state of today's food products. Honey in particular is often fraudulent containing syrups and sugars to add to volume while still being marketed as "Pure Honey". Worst of all, it is getting harder to detect the auth

In my experience, Nim was the more enjoyable language to write. I had initially written an application in Golang that effectively keeps our DNS records in sync with CloudFlare across ~100+ machines (A, AAAA, CNAME, etc). The application wa

My college experience was rather disappointing. As someone pressured into going to College (Mom was a school teacher), I gave in and attended a 4 year SUNY University (Oneonta, New York). I knew college wasn't cheap so through high s

Found a typo if it hasn't already been pointed out - "Prioritze" is missing an "i" in "..tize". This is under the heading "Track Your Team's Performance. Get Results." BTW - Excellent job.

Interesting thought, but would require a lot of validation to ensure that the location submitted was in fact an ISIS base and not the submitters ex-wife's house. I would imagine that a large amount of people would quickly abuse the to
