Speeding up

Recently I have problems with speeding up. There are quite some things to do. Projects, things to check out, learn - neverending list. How do you solve them all the fastest? Not like when you're rather reading the page numbers in the book instead of the content.

Monthly contribution

We had our monthly contribution night. Nice little gathering, new and old attendees. Great discussions and finally managet to contribute my dev module back to the community.

Facebook authorization

The more I read the management book the more I realize it's witchcraft. Also it seems we're all dumb chickens waiting for managers to tell us how to live and die. We cannot deal with stress, emotion, challenge or basically any real life situation. Only revealing fact is that managers don't tell anybody the truth. Just like in Ibsen's Wild Duck, we keep our naive happy life.

Rules

I had a little affair with Rules today. I was so deep inside of it, I never thought I could go that far. And nobody hurt. Being gentle and take a lot of attention pays back.

Tax

It's amazing how chemistry works. It's the time of the annual tax admission. Funny, only one time a year, usually half an hour. And I swear I have a low temper. And the only reason is to collect all my hatred and agression to that half an hour I'm filling out the tax papers.

The social game

I was wondering about what could I do, and maybe found something. It's a social game, and funny enough, it's just like any other social game. But I hope I can add a little twist to that.

One of these lazy days

Usually lazy days should be good, but today I felt too much distracted so I ended up doing a lot of little things.

Entitycache, you unbelievable

I was on my battle to find a calm coffee bar in the city center - just one indicator how naiv I am. Managed to read almost all the weekly articles.

Conway's game of life in CoffeeScript

First I've met the game of life theory at the uni on a class named: computer science in biology. It was fascinating, the first micro program that actually seemed to be alive. Tonight I finally got a few hours to implement the code.

Maybe AngularJS is not for everything

In the last couple of nights I was reading the AngularJS documentation. I was planing to 'Angularize' the time reporter app. Lately I've read so much about it that I've got the impression it's for everything. Now I'm backed up a bit on that.

A really productive activity logger

I was wondering if my daily time cutter idea was good or not. Should I continue it or not. It already took couple of hours and still a bit clunky. Making the UI is really hard. So if the dynamic visuals is the part that makes developing the app a hassle then probably I should change on the idea. And then it struck me.

Daily report cutter - part II

It's always nice to come home after a tired day, sit down, make a tea and do some CoffeeScript to calm yourself down. It's like really your first frozen girlfriend. You do whatever you want and you even can peep under the skirt and it's still stable.

First round at converting to CoffeeScript

I've spend a little time last night converting the plain old JavaScript code to CoffeeScript in the daily-time-cutter project. It was quite fun, so let me share my experience in a short post.

Let's try CoffeeScript

I've been always interested in JavaScript - so it's getting even more when is about compilers. I've been keeping half an eye on the competitors lately: Dart, CoffeeScript, GWT and TypeScript.

The idea of a daily time cutter UI

It's either faith or satan - but usually if you're working you have to make reports. It really makes sense, I see the reason of course, but hate it too. All the complex idea that I managed to build up in head is destined for fading out under fragment of a second - when I need to think about how much time I've spent on what.

PresJS prototype

Yesterday I wrote about my ideal very-fast presentation workflow. As a quick recap the idea was to do no presentation at all. Making the research actually could be converted to slides. Let's see the prototype then.

The productive presentation tool

I took many presentations in my life. There are definitely various types that makes big difference sometimes. There are thorough, walkthrough presentations where you explain a topic from A to Z. There are the bullshit presentations where you need the zero to hero graphs and many fancy extras. There are always creative ones of course. However I like to craft my slides as simple as possible.

Damn simple 3D tutorial

One of my idol is my grandmother. She was a very great mathematics and chemistry teacher when she was active at the school. She taught to me the love of numbers. I remember we were solving geometric examples, equations or some fun math problems in our free time. And I miss it sometimes. So today I decided to write a little 3D engine.

Some thoughts about RequireJS

Being keen to learn about the new JavaScript libs I was wondering how useful RequireJS is. The library is defined by the following:

One hour game initiative

It's Friday again and I'm like a plastic chicken. What can you do with a dead brain? Well actually quite some things. Back in high school when we drank our first beer with my best-friend we tried to measure how drank we were. Do you know how? We went through the basic calculus theories. And when you're dancing in a public fountain almost naked chanting math equations you realize there not too much correlation.
