I'm also doing some Emacs related videos, presenting a single concept each time. I'm a big fan of Doom Emacs.
I am working on moving the interface of my notes app to Javascript (so it can be a PWA). To do this, I need to learn Javascript, so I am learning javascript by writing little games. I present to you, the worst game in the entire world - https://www.lifepim.com/apps/LifeSIM/battle
This is really cool. Not bad for your first game :)
On the side, I'm working on a feature documentary and I'm also exploring some ideas with a friend of mine who is a talented film director.
Most of my spare time is spent with my son and wife. I'm recovering from burnout and as part of the Scandinavian mindset I'm relearning how to have a healthy work life balance.
I've been working on a web app to help political campaigns scale and manage an exploding volunteer network. Helping the campaign delegate tasks, helping the volunteers connecting to constituents, and see statistics along the way. I've seen too many campaigns attempt to run hundreds of volunteers, do crazy tricks with Google Sheets (just to have volunteers accidentally delete critical information), and I've been a vol…
Really cool, I've also been kicking around ideas in this area - anywhere I can see something and what type of campaigns are you targeting (local/state/other)? I know it's not the same, but have you seen https://www.victoryguide.us/ ?
I'm not currently living in the United States so I'm building a software with my mind on Israeli left-wing politics. It had a pilot run and it was great, and now I'm working on getting another customer!
You can find it on Steam or Reddit, search for "Bloody Rally Show".

I'm adding the hotel booking engine to the website. The first hurdle I came across was how to offer fast suggestions to the user when typing a location / hotel name. That's when I found Azure Search ( which is extremely easy to set up), and now I just have to complete the whole process. This whole thing is extremely gratifying because I'm learning new stuff pretty much everyday.
Recently I read a similar example on CS50 course, to do fast search. It is simply a json request everytime a keyboard event is activated. For storage, either store it in memory for instant lookup table or use redis. https://cs50.harvard.edu/college/2018/fall/weeks/7/notes/ look for the example on WORDS

Do you mind me asking which site you tried it on? I haven't had it crash in a while where it produces nothing while snipping. Maybe you found a new way to crash it. What if you try it on this site? (HackerNews as a test) Also your Chrome version and OS might help me debug it.
I ran it against a dev site I have up at localhost:3000... it does seem to work great on HN's homepage, so perhaps the page has to be publically addressable? Running Chrome 74 on Ubuntu Can this do media queries? eg if I have 5 responsive ranges, do I have to snip 5 times or is it smart enough to grab all of it?
It will be smart enough to grab everything but I'm still working out the issues. The extension version only runs once, but for the desktop version it has a list of Device Resolutions to run through (typical Desktop, iPad, Mobile is default) and for the extra resolutions adds more styles to the list of rules by iterating through all the elements again. That seems to get almost all media queries so hopefully I can release that soon.
I'm writing a book that teaches people coding using JavaScript, the book that takes you from 0 (no coding background) to getting a job as a JS engineer. 2 years I ago, I had a hypothesis to see if anybody could learn coding if they tried. To test that, I reached out to random people with no coding background, most of them from underprivileged backgrounds. I figured they have fewer opportunities and are more likely to…
Hi, could you teach me how to navigate hiring phase? I have more than 2 years of JS experience, python, shell and whatnot, still 130k sounds good for me.
I am quite frustrated and fed up of the traffic congestion problems in my city (Pune, India) and so I have decided that I will try and solve this problem.
