Comprehensive Beginner’s Guide to AngularJS
Last Saturday, I gave yet another talk on getting started with AngularJS and with good success. I found myself wondering though, along the way, why is it that we keep needing these “getting started” talks with Angular? What makes it so complicated? Why do we need endless “basic” tutorials? I think the answer lies in […]
Read More33mThe A-ha! Moment of being a game development beginner
Every programming paradigm has a peak point, the point of no return that I call the “A-ha!” moment. It’s the moment where you get “it” and “it” is no longer confusing.

Instead, I’d like to […]

Algorithms are a pretty interesting aspect of coding. Of course, they’re not solely part of coding, as the definition states: Algorithm: a set of rules for solving a problem in a finite number of steps, as for finding the greatest common divisor. But as a developer, I see algorithms as they pertain to developing systems […]
Read More8mThe Wild West of Working On NodeJS In Production (and why it’s fun).
NodeJS is a lightweight technology that no one has yet conquered and shackled in the prison of “Best Practices”. When coding a new app, there’s no list of frameworks to use, no service containers to worry about, no definitions, no injections or ejections or what have you. When you start a new app, there’s app.js […]
