Whew. It’s been a little too long since I’ve done one of these. With the semester starting things have gotten super busy for me! This morning I was able to help a fellow Coalworker with an issue regarding WordPress that was solved by using pre_get_posts (tutorial coming soon). This is significant for me because a year ago, I had no idea…
I still remember 9/11/01 really well. I was a teenager, I was taken out of class & brought to my mom’s job/my grammar school, and my friend Amy & I refreshed CNN.com constantly. I knew the world changed, but didn’t have the perspective to realize how. That’s why what I remember most about 9/11 is the respect we had for…
For today’s 100 Words, I’d like to deflect to the Organizers of WordCamp US. It’s sure to be a great event with lots of amazing people, and the first one outside of San Fransisco. If you can come you definitely should. I know I’ll be there! WordCamp US 2015, held December 4–6 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, has opened a first round…
I’ve been a little off since getting back from California. Between all of the summer traveling I did and then getting sick the first week of the semester, I’ve been having trouble focusing and getting things done. This weekend, a long weekend, I’m home in Scranton. I’m hoping I can use the extra time to get back on track and…
Last week, Wisdm Labs published an interview I did with them and I think it turned out great! One thing that struck me was Namrata, the interviewer, asked me 4 questions that were specific to me. One was “If you weren’t a Front End Developer, you would be…” I chose photographer. I really enjoy taking photos and just bought the Nikon…
I’ve decided just this morning that I’m going to start each day with an educational video that’s less than 5 minutes long. A couple of years ago I spent a weekend with a group of friends when I realized they all knew way more than me about things not in their professional field. Since then, I’ve been listening to podcasts…
Being sick sucks. After the very, very busy summer I had I suppose it was bound to happen. I came back from a 10 day trip to FL/CA in which very little sleep occurred, got a root canal, then went out for another sleep-deprived weekend that included a 21 hour day (a great day, by the way – if you have…
What a week! I just got back from sunny California, where I went to Disneyland, the d23 Expo, and the Burbank studio lot, as well as visited with friends at CigarPress 2015. As I will not be able to sum all of that up in 100 words, expect another post or two. My 2 Months with the iPhone got picked up…
I just wrote 1700+ words about the iPhone. That post will publish tomorrow, so keep an eye out for it. I did this using iA Writer on my iPad flying down to Florida. It was a pretty nice experience, given I got the QODE Keyboard Case by Belkin. It’s great. I strongly recommend it. The other great part of the…
Last night while reading a new book on my roof I witnessed smoke coming from a building several blocks away. “Something is definitely on fire.” I snapped a few photos and told some friends and family. One friend was on a scanner giving me updates while I also checked social media. All-in-all it was a pretty interesting experience. No one…
