Development

I had the idea to write a post about the editors and IDEs I have used over the years. These are the ones that stood out to me and why. Screenshots included!

There is a current trend I don’t understand in web design: websites that offer dark mode but bury it somewhere in their settings. As a user of dark mode, this is a horrendous user experience.

There was a time when all websites were multi-page applications, but that has changed. I wanted to know what users and developers think about that and so I asked.

I’m excited to announce an all-new version of Feed The Dev! It is now an aggregate website for development and technology news and articles that combines sources from all over the internet into a single, easy-to-use website.

A couple of weeks ago, I bought a license upgrade for the Mac editor BBEdit despite not using it all the time. This is why.

When I write code, I tend to use long, descriptive variable names with few abbreviations. This is why.

In the past several years, there has been a lot of hype about how blue light from screens affects our sleeping patterns. Turns out, it’s not that bad.

Scrum cannibalizes so much of my programming time that I sometimes forget I’m not a manager but a programmer. That is especially true since I started working part-time.

According to BNN Bloomberg, Google is now giving websites a choice: let us train our AI on your content or be delisted from search results.

Apple is forcing Patreon to pay its 30% App Store tax for every subscription done through its iOS app and I think it’s abominable.

I installed Fedora on my PC to try out as my daily driver. I loved the experience except for a few irritations that eventually got me back to using Windows.

Turns out most websites use dark patterns to manipulate their users to perform actions they wouldn’t otherwise do.
