I recently re-did my personal blog. My goal is to write about topics that are of interest to me mostly for my own learning and knowledge. Hopefully it also helps others but my goal is write and share. I don't care about comments or soc

holy smokes. GA4 is the biggest pile of horse shit I have come across and even though Google is bad in general with UI/UX, GA4 takes the cake when it comes to "could it get any shittier". They took a decent product (UA) and c

I agree that it is more of a political issue at this point because the middlemen are way too powerful and would fight tooth and nail to keep raking in the moolah.

Never pay anyone without an invoice. Never. If these freelancers don't know how to setup an invoice, it is honestly their problem. Having said that, I always tell them to go use a free tool like invoiceninja.com or you can send them a

One issue could be that most of us don't really understand what it even means to be autistic or on the spectrum unless we know someone personally in family/friends. For example, I personally have seen autism mostly in movies and

Sorry, there is no such thing as "I will code and someone else will sell" when it is just you or even a couple of you. You have to sell/market as well. You know your product and market the best. At least you have to believe t
