I am a certified PADI scuba instructor. Probably one of the funnest things I have ever done.

The two I can think off of the top of my head are Paul Hudson's web site https://www.hackingwithswift.com and the old Ray Wenderlich site which is now called Kodeco https://www.kodeco.com/home . Another good

Basic interface design. If you require data to be in a specific format, then only give the user those options as input. The country code example is easily solved with a select field whose values are proper ISO country designations. This art

Loved this show from the first episode. I have now gone back and watched the series twice now. I don't want to give away the end for those who may stumble upon it... but how it captures relationships built around a passion is so spot o

Just my experience with living in Texas, there is a major individual independence vein that runs through a lot of folks here. In NE Ohio, sure... there were those that didn't follow the norms, but for the most part attitudes were very

I grew up in Ohio. I moved west the year I turned 30. I always felt like the West never made sense to me. Through his words, I feel like I got some understanding. Fantastic writer and a definite loss to American prose.

There are "new model" institutions that are doing that. I got my BSCS from Western Governors. Tuition covered everything. Books, certifications, etc. Any material I wanted beyond the course text was either available in their digit

It totally screams of another "Confessions of an Economic Hitman." It will be a bestseller, be proven fake, and then quoted a million times.

I wouldn't say that it was SPA specifically. I think a lot of the issue is that a11y standards as described by WCAG and Section 508 can sometimes be extremely vague. When you start getting into "exotic" components, say things

Either that or "Backend for Frontend." I only heard this term recently at work the other day from an adjacent team to mine that uses this pattern: https://medium.com/mobilepeople/backend-for-frontend-pattern..

I do it on the side as a hobby myself and am also a full-stack web dev. I should say I’ve never released an app to the App Store, they are usually utility apps that I find useful. Will it burn you out? No idea. My hobby has been coding long

I just have to say thanks to beej71 for making this guide. I'm doing my Masters in CS right now (I'm predominately a web developer... js, java, etc) and only used C++ one time in my undergrad. Your guide was my go to resource when

I love the "in person collaboration" line... only to show up to the office and be stuck on zoom calls all day with your distributed team. I DO think that in-person collaboration can happen with RTTO, but when everyone is on zoom a

I absolutely agree. Sadly, though, I see way too many companies making it harder and harder to negotiate. When I was brought in full time, I tried to counter and was told "This is the offer, take it or leave it." They even went as

I have been pretty convinced it is tied to commercial real estate. I'm sure shareholders are not happy knowing that some companies are sitting on tons of unused office space. But recently, I've thought it also has much to do with

Being typecast as the "front-end web guy." I thought for a long time not having a degree held me back, so I got my BSCS. Nope, still pegged as the FE web guy. Working on my masters now, talk to some folks around the company about

CS6200 is awesome (currently in it myself this term). The projects alone have been an excellent exercise, mainly because I come from a web development background. The papers we are reading are very interesting. Prof. Gavrilovska does a grea

This book turned me into a rabid RAW fan... which in turn lead me to Discordianism. That journey then led me to Rev. Ivan Stang and the Church of the Subgenius. So pretty much, RAW and Robert Shea directly made me the weirdo I am today.

I live about a block from Waugh Bridge (mentioned in the article). It is not unusual to have 10 or 15 neighborhood locals stationed at the bridge at dusk to see the bats as they leave for the evening. During the warmer months, when bayou in

It very much does. I just graduated with my BSCS from WGU this past July and while reading this was thinking to myself "WGU is already doing something similar to this." Some classes do require projects + lengthy papers, others are

I’ve returned to B/X (with a splash of BECMI) and AD&D. 5e is already a money sink for terrible releases that require way to much time to make playable or just lack real content over all. Add to that having to buy the books all ove

In the 90's and early 00's, my hometown had a great coffeehouse community. I joined various computer clubs that met at them, a 2600 club, and learned a lot about software development and computers in general from some old school g

I had Bell’s in 2015. Got home from a week in SF. Cracked open one of the bottles of wine I bought while in Napa and was really upset with how bad it tasted compared to how it tasted while at the winery. The next morning it was already havi

I've actually suffered form something similar for many years. I was recently talking to a mentor of mine complaining about this and he asked me "What is it that gives you paralysis and causes you to abandon projects?" It real
