   I walked away from mine only after 8 years. It was difficult realizing it had to go. Taking something that was a part of your life for so long out behind the metaphorical barn with a rifle is tough...

   Yea...I have an Aldi just a stones-throw away from my house. I was mailed a "grand opening" coupon for first time shoppers. I skeptically took the bait. It was a sad, awkward experience. Weird knockoff names for popular brands,

    I write software, both professionally and as a "side gig". I spend a decent amount of time behind my house doing yard work and general maintenance. I don't really look forward to those (non-IT?) activities, but when I am do

    I really like the fact you are looking for feedback early in your development loop. Also, I notice your favicon is the Vue.js logo...nice choice! I signed up and will be using this over the course of a few days. I'll post back here w

    I think having the skills to understand business goals combined with the ability to design and develop solutions where you're flexible about what tech stack is used is much more valuable to businesses. Very well-said, and needs to be

    Just a note on your video - I scrolled right past it without realizing the embedded video was there. I scrolled all the way down to the bottom of the page and thought "what...no video showing what this is?". I suggest a little mo

    Eventually I could feel my skills stagnating. Yes, I was able to do more impactful work, but keeping up with high-level industry tech changes became difficult as I was spending more time on a whiteboard than at a computer.

    This exact thing happened to me as well in High School "woodshop" class. The entire class and even the teacher called me "kickback" for rest of the year. I don't think any of us realized at the time just how close
