Let’s Hear it For Guide Creators (Yay!)
This week is Creator Appreciation Week (formerly Developer Appreciation Week, but expanded now in scope). Historically, I do focus on a developer but this time I’d like to do something different and send a...
Overthinking What Makes for a ‘Banger’
OK, not those bangers. (Although I am now hungry. Dangit.) No, I’m referring to ‘Banger’ in the song context. And more specifically, I am wondering what makes for a ‘Friday Banger’. Yes, yes, I...

Defeated by the Nap
The time is 10:45 pm, and I still haven’t published anything for today. This is, in fact, the moment I decided to just jump into the post and see where it took me as...
Home Again
As predicted, I am behind in my writing schedule. This means I’m writing today for today. I’d rather be writing today for tomorrow, but I suppose it isn’t the end of the world. The...
