• I pushed out a new template, called it grayArticle

• Added some fancy-ish css examples:
  • a perspective Card
  • a Card that flips
• Removed falling snow from front page - Happy New Year again, everybody!

I stumbled upon this resource and would like to recommend it: https://freefrontend.com

The resource is clean, inobtrusive, and useful. Just look at this speech bubble and a cartoon face! Done only using CSS:

Alternatively: USB drive does not read.

Unblock, Defend, Reduce, Assault. In that order.

I have todo lists that are hundreds of lines long. It gets ridiculous, especially considering that I'm likely to perform the task and only cross it out much later, as the execution of the task was independent of whatever was written in the todo list.

I actually have a [personal policy of "no todo lists"], see that article for an extended explanation as to why.

Why 3? See [small numbers of items for mnemonic lists]. 3 items will fit nicely into memory. Any more than that, it gets problematic to remember, much less to perform.

I've worked pretty hard to be where I am now.

The pandemic has created unique opportunities for me. Taking advantage of them has demonstrated my operational agility and decision-making skills. Having succeeded in addressing the challenges of the shifting landscape, I have emerged from the world-side turmoil, stronger than ever, ready to tackle channelges many times my own size.

WasyaCo, a company that specializes in software innovation, announces the addition of AI-assisted writing capabilities to its arsenal of creative and development tools.

Check out type76 on github to see what I am talking about.

Key points:

• It's free
• Produces ASCII animation that can be recorded as video, or played back interactively

Timing of sync needs to be set manually. This thing doesn't work with other voices.

Mozilla's built-in voice is ugly and barely usable, in fact, not useable.

I recommend... https://www.naturalreaders.com/online/ for voice generation

And you can record audio output with blackhole.

Hello developer, you've probably landed on this page because you were looking for how to format date, on linux.

You can get the same info as below by issuing this command in the terminal: man date. It's a little boring to read, but the built-in docs are always there for you. Regardless of that, here is the syntax of the command. Note the plus sign before the text in quotes (I didn't make the rules, the linux conventions are old but consistent).

Among other projects, Nexenta required building a front-end component to one of its storage adapters. Nexenta plugs into Swift, a component of OpenStack, to provide object storage to the OpenStack cluster. The Nexenta Horizon Dashboard is the User Interface component that allows admins to install and monitor it.

We implemented the dashboard in agile, iterative manner over the course of one month.

• Improved the template engine of email campaigns. Previously as a trial, there was one possible template variable: name. With this update, any and all template variables can be used. By passing in a dictionary as the context, all key-values are used in templating. Template structure no longer has to be defined at all, and the structure can be different for different email campaigns.
• The homepage has been translated to Spanish and Portuguese.
• Added Terms of Service and Privacy Policy in Spanish and Portuguese

A small update on paper, but it took a comfortable amount of time to implement, not too long, not too short, and the update is already being used in production. The update is:

• Implemented email campaigns functionality in PiousboxCRM.

This round has been led by a serial entrepreneur and venture capitalist, who wished to remain anonymous. Other accredited investors have joined in to provide operating capital to the company.

In the CMS (or the CRM), the email sending functionality has improved. Now it’s possible to select from-email when composing using a template.

I spent way too much time on this not to share the solution. : ) You can find the tl;dr at the bottom.

The problem appeared to be a lag, but since none of my components are top of the line, I wasn't sure where exactly the problem was. Was it the Intuos tablet, or something else? I suspected the software, Krita, and spent some time tinkering with it, configuring caching, and adjusting rendering configuration. That didn't help.

• Deployed 2.1.0 of ish_manager, which was a patch changing some specs and continuing on removing Sites, Cities. All specs pass in this repo at this time.
• ish_models@2.0.0 received a patch update, now maps have default labels on creation - this helps to not skip rendering of e.g. newsitems if any are present.

1. Minimal moving environment - you can move in a 3d environment, on desktop and mobile (different mechanics)
2. next_js is wired in, although caching needs to be reviewed
3. A lot of things are newly broken! But these are steps in the right direction.

Creek Enterprise is in construction space: they manage multiple construction projects, and each such project can have hundreds of subcontractors submitting estimates and invoices.

To manage invoices and the work done by the subcontractors, Creek uses “Subcontractor Management Tool”, or SMT. The previous version of it was written 8 years ago, and while robust and reliable, it was getting obsolete and in need of a redesign.

Throwback to Dec '18 - such a long time ago! When I produced this flyer.  

And this was done around the same time:

I thought this topic is clear, but I've run into this again very recently. Since so much conflicting information is going around, let's iterate once again on what the priority codes should mean. I'm drawing this originally from Jira definitions  - I think that's where i saw it first, and it is the most sensible.
