Even if you’re not into toys, this one, I guarantee you’ll be drooling for… — And that ladies and gentlemen, gender-fluids, non-binaries, furries, aliens, and superheroes — just making sure I’m covering everyone here — is what we call a timeless French expression, and it’s a perfectly legit way to draw you into a story. Specifically, this story. The good news is — for the…

What point is PyScript trying to make? Pure genius or another useless fad? Let’s find out… — What happens when software engineers get bored? Well, that’s a trick question. Software engineers never get bored. Proof of that is the gazillion programming languages, libraries, frameworks, programming paradigms, hacks and unfinished GitHub repos out there. The latest on this exhaustingly long list of software engineering attempts born out of…

It’s not “easy money”, but it’s there for the taking… — Yes, the title is meant to grab your attention. Having been a software developer now for over a decade, but being familiar with the web business for nearly two, I am jaded enough already to know that the only message that really gets home is the one about money. It’s…

But it sure as hell looks good! — Couldn’t have come up with a more cryptic title, could I? I call it an intriguing, mysterious title. And because you’ll love my story’s content, and because it comes with great pictures, you’ll decide it wasn’t clickbait after all. In fact, what will likely happen, is you’re heading to the…

Flat beer, flat news, and a flat paraphrasing of a Bonnie Tyler song… — Yup. This week is kind of a flop. When even MacRumors ends up recycling year old rumours provided by other rumour mills, that also turned out to be false the first time around, you kinda know it’s a slow news week. Very much like a flat beer. You’re still gonna…

And guess what? They grow on trees! How cool is that?!? — Have you heard the story of the 101 Dalmatians? I bet you have. But have you heard the story of the 101 frogs? No? Thought so. They’re also pink! All 101 of them! How about that for a plot twist, ha? 😁 I regretfully must admit something. I am absolutely…

We pay for content, not for ads. Figure it out… — Who here hates ads? Everyone? Great. Glad we established that. Who here pays for services that have no ads? Many of us? Indeed. In fact, more of us pay for ad-free access to the internet than we realise. Do you think Netflix would have become as popular as it did…

And thanks to Google I/O 2022, we have proof… — OK, I sat down, did some maths, and I have an interesting number that I came up with. As soon as I saw the highlights of this year’s Google I/O, I immediately had a feeling of a sort of deja-vu. Then it clicked. Google and its hardware line has now…

When everybody hates on the good ol’ if…else statement, I’m going to show some love for it in every language I know! — This is my public love-letter to the if…else statement. At this point, I’d have to grow a few more arms and legs to count the number of Medium and LinkedIn posts thrashing the otherwise reliable veteran of conditional programming. I remember when I first saw it in C. This. This…
