The book Refuse to Choose by Barbara Sher helped me get through notebooks. I could only ever get a few pages in one before switching interests. This is the book: https://amzn.to/3OQxX4J I started with these, and got through

I was introduced to Pascal’s Turtle Graphics back in the 90’s. I thought it was cool but never had a real use for it; x,y seemed easier for some reason. I started drawing SVG’s for a laser engraver and suddenly I wish other languages had th

I'm working on an application where you share your business idea with an AI which evaluates and ranks ideas. It scores the idea, explains why it scored the way it did, and offers suggestions for improvement. That's double meta in

For me, the most rewarding part is to help people. I love getting a random email saying “thanks” for a few sentences I jotted down that saved someone else time or money or made their life better somehow. My most valuable example actually ca

What about software? I was thinking about this last night. Should I use a license agreement that gives my proprietary software to the public domain when I die? What about my open source software that I can no longer maintain? In my case, th

True for me too. The costs for cloud services _seem_ like they’re higher to get started _and_ I worry about the cost runs you hear horror stories about.

At the end the author talks a bit about passing his own stuff on to others. I’ve often wondered if I could or should do the same. I don’t have anything that has a big community behind it but I’ve been making random stuff for a long time. Ma

I’m 47 and I’m not sure if I’ve had a midlife crisis, which probably means I have not. My adult kids, however, joke that I’ve had one a year for as long as they’ve been alive. I’m what the late Barbara Sher called a Scanner. I keep a Scanne

I wasn’t a Good Reads user but Amazon purchased and then shuttered my favorite music discovery site, Amie Street. They simply redirected the site to Amazon’s MP3 store. This happened back in 2010 and I still miss the ability to discover and

I like the article and I believe much of it, but I’ve been chasing personal passions for more than 25 years and I haven’t had a side project I’d call successful, at least not in a financial sense. So, there’s something else to that part. I

Another good example of this might be the transition from http to https. Granted, that's not actually the domain name but most people probably wouldn't make the distinction. Although HTTP URL's still work on most TLDs in most

I’ve only really used Apollo on Reddit. The official app never stuck for me and I don’t have it installed. It’s one of the few apps I only really use on my phone, so I don’t have it bookmarked or anything. At this point, I’m burned and so I

That’s the opposite of what we need. Bikes should be unencumbered by all that crap. Helmets are a good idea and may save some money but it would be better to make those free as part of the deal than to regulate them. I don’t understand the

I’m going to disagree. Even code that makes sense when read is easier to read in human language reading through comments. Especially if you’re looking for an area of code you’re not very familiar with. Comments are basically free in most la

How do you do it? I used to do this too, with automatic software on my Android phone. I stopped when I switched to iPhone because I couldn’t find anything to do it. Android has been hitting these API’s as well.

I’m a veteran dev but I’m new to Go… The following quotes seem to indicate that “auto” is not the default. At least, not if you haven’t run some command to set it at a default (and I’m not seeing one). > If the $GOROOT/go.env file i

I would probably call these integration tests. I came across this interesting tool for similar tests the other day. It lets you request websites or API’s and then search the return for a string. It’s more for checking uptime, so I dunno if

I can relate to this. I actually finish a lot of stuff. I mean, it’s not all polished, it’s just simple, documented, and released. Then, crickets. I either suck at marketing my stuff or I’m scratching itches that only I care about. Examples

I'm surprised to see this from Instructables (Autodesk). If you right-click the back button you'll see that it did four redirects and you can click the 5th to get back. I highly doubt this is effective at anything.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. Adding “of your organization” would clear that up.

Why require me to setup an organization that is public? I just want to try it out and that was a non-starter.

Nice work. I was just looking at that other Lua game engine outlined in that post about simple coding. The first thing I wondered was how to handle resolution. It wasn’t clear to me in the docs for that older game engine. It’s one of the ea

Just a small note… Making my programming hobby into a job has resulted in a wonderful and rewarding career for me. I’ve now been coding professionally for around 25 years. I go through waves, but you’ll often find me coding in my spare time
