  • I do not always Git it

    I learned Git on my own by reading random answers on StackExchange and other places; some random articles here and there and a lot of that so I can learn how to make branches, revert things, and just plain learn. Some things have stuck with me more than others but it is partially because I…

  • In need of reading things

    I love to read random programing books and articles. The other day I read a tweet that recommended some nine books if you were into programming and I felt like I had seen two of those books mentioned when it comes to learning about code. One of which was Clean Code. I’ve been wanting to…

    A small recap of WordCamp Sacramento 2018 and some thoughts about next year.

  • Contact forms are odd

    On my site I have two forms. One is just a random one I created and the other is a contact form used for – you guessed it – contacting me. Over time I’ve gotten a few random ones that make me laugh only because of the content they contained. The ones that really made…

    Reflecting back on things for the week and realizing that JavaScript has this super strange hold on me; not sure if that is a good thing or bad.

  • Trying applications

    This week I wanted to change things up a little bit. The week consisted of maybe one or two forum replies, one post read on code, and some Lego City on the Switch. Part of that reason is because I wanted to try using an editor. An app editor. First one on the list was…

    Yes, late for this one. The last week was another slow one. I didn’t do a lot of reading, or researching of things. I am actually pretty bummed by this one because it means that I didn’t reinforce the knowledge. I mean I can learn from it which is what I plan on doing. The…

  • A learning path

    Over the last three weeks I shared a few things I read and sort of learned along the way. This week I, again, focused a little more on support but did dive back into learning things again. What was really awesome was a tweet I saw and it felt like I really was meant to…

    This week I focused more on the free support forums. This was in part because I took a small break from reading about Docker Compose and setting up my local environment on Ubuntu. It was cool to see the environment get built with a simple command. I think the biggest hurdle I encountered was I…
