   I've been building an app with Sveltekit (ok, two); and I've proposed a talk at THAT conf in the summer. I agree with the author's positive and negative assessments, but really for me the developer experience outweighs the ne

   Really awesome to see this. I've done some conversion work for Flash to PhaserJS for educational games. We had to just rewrite everything as we didn't even have the original source code. Luckily Phaser animations can get a lot o

   I burned out in 2016 and worked really hard to recover. But the honest truth is I never cared the same again. I burned out worse in 2021 after almost 4 years; my client denied multiple PTO requests and I worked 12 months straight with just

   The Thief series. It technically has violence... but I play the game on the hardest settings and the most you can do is sneak up and knock someone out.

   You can't find what you are passionate about, it's not something that gets discovered. You pick it and hone it. Getting experienced, acknowledged by peers, and executing from knowledge all come with time and dedication and you bec

    I went from paper to a tablet for a year (as a challenge), ended up back on paper. My boss got me into using nicer notebooks, and I've been doing it for years (about 6). I then switched to MD files, eventually ending up using Stacked

    I like both, but I'll probably 'move forward' with whichever one has masking working in a non-obtuse way first. With dungeon scrawler there is a pre-set that uses masks, but I've completely failed to figure out how to se

    When I was younger I used to get to play this at Gencon when it was still in Milwaukee. All around a good time and the tech is interesting.

    I do love to travel. I will write your app in Backbone, Angular, or React, or ??? depending on what we're building. It's hard to reply in a mature and productive way here; since you've called what some people do... bullshit

    From a technical stand point I agree. But the unit needs to open a connection to my phone, which is going to require reaching beyond my home network. It's hard to deliver a product to an end user this way, so in these cases the cloud m

    I'd say, yes. I've been able to watch that many people see the ring (they see the camera), and they back right off the porch. It's been awesome in this respect, people simply ring it less. As far as the cloud stuff; I'

    We pulled a Backbone app up out of storage along with some others. Then we wrote a few more versions in modern frameworks. It's an internal comparison app. Two things of note. 1) We always start from the Backbone app, it's the e

    Community here has been pretty negative on this lately. So I'll just add I've been using Angular 2x and also Ionic 2 the last year or so with great success. One real benefit we saw was the ability to take a lot of Backbone code

    It's actually a shame, they failed to remove the obvious hint for this, which is the green x drawn on the hand drawn version of the puzzle.

    I'm going to cry foul. Lines like "has a umd now. whatever a umd is.... " Stack Overflow copy pasta developers. If you're an associate level developer; the project should be setup for you. If you are above that, you
