And likewise I've only worked at two places where everybody was on-board with version control. Three if you count my freelance business. Usually it's the front-end developers who resist until a lead or manager evangelizes/for

The Apple I was just a board and you could connect any ASCII keyboard to it. The Byte Shop probably had a standard one they sold with theirs, though.

A 27" 2560x1440 screen. One of those cheap IPS panels that came out of the box with a couple dead pixels. It's on a monitor arm from Monoprice. When I get home, I hook my 11" MacBook Air up to it. Portable when it needs to be

Would you believe I was once chewed out by a co-worker for studying design instead of focusing 100% on back-end development? The full-stack label is important to me because too many developers are eager to pigeonhole themselves, and non-tec

Yeah. People were still walking their dogs. My wife & I went out for a calzone at 12:30 and the place was packed. I don't think a single person I talked to online or off was "afraid". We were just staying out of the way, and with the T
