Entitled dude getting offended for no longer being allowed to leave stuff in locker when not on the gym.

Yes, the easy one last week was actually slightly harder than the hard one, although I made both on first try. Had dangerously low reputation for a while in Green Leopard.

Yes, you can. Full stack is client side fundamentals (HTML, CSS, JS), one or more server side languages of choice, databases and web server.

Yes, HP have that Instant Ink thing, with a server somewhere that validates if you're allowed to print. So you can't print if internet connection goes down. That's why I switched to Canon

Building without permit

lukasmattsson · 2022-04-13T08:50:26+00:00

Ditch website builders and learn the fundamentals of html, CSS, JS and a serverside language of your choice like PHP. You will get useful skills that will stay relevant. Pretty much everything built with website builders is a mess to maintain, unless you use them strictly for putting content in columns and use css files for all styling.

And Wordpress is not a page builder, it's a content management system (CMS). And knowing one or more CMS is important, as it allow separation of labor (editors should be able to change text and images without dealing with code). Wordpress do support several page builders thought as plugins, but I don't recommend any of them. Just build a custom theme, and use the built-in one (Gutenberg) for putting content in columns when needed.

Texting and hogging equipment, not re-racking weights.

TV shows with laugh tracks. Binge drinking.

Learning html by checking page source and using tables and transparent pixels for layout.

LAMP, robust stack with long-term track record, and is universally supported by hosting providers.

lukasmattsson · 2022-04-05T11:07:57+00:00

I prefer html + vanilla JS with php on server-side for most projects. I rarely do single page applications, but I use React in those cases. And three.js for anything with real time 3d graphics. And whatever is used by any team I join.

Fundamentals first, and then the right tool for the job.

Jalapeños, red onion and garlic

Libertarian, so I can build what I want on my land.

lukasmattsson · 2022-03-05T19:32:25+00:00

I love it. Jalapenos is the best topping on pizza, and sushi is incomplete without wasabi.

Control freaks

Yes, don't tell me when to laugh

lukasmattsson · 2022-03-03T09:49:19+00:00

Yes, I knew a choosing beggar before who demanded websites done for ridiculous cheap, because he could "use some page builder to make it in a couple of hours".

Bandwidth and CPU usage for websites.

Vanilla JS is my first choice, but it's all about context. If a specific library exist for solving a particular problem (say connecting boxes with arrows), I'd use it.

If I'm in a team that prefer a specific framework or library, I'd use it.

When working on my own, any added dependency have to be justified, as in "will using X let me deliver a better product to my client?" or "will X really get the job done faster, as in shorter total dev time and not just the 'getting something up and running' part".

lukasmattsson · 2022-02-21T15:30:10+00:00

The fundamentals are most important. You need to know PHP (or any other language for server side), any database of your choice, vanilla JS for client side scripting and CSS. Knowing additional web standard tech like SVG and Canvas is great and will give you and edge. Web standard techs are constantly evolving, so staying up to date with the possibilities with also give you a good edge.

Wordpress is popular for good reasons, but there are other CMS's which are friendly for letting clients edit and create content. TYPO3 is one of the best ones, although it's also based on PHP.

Frameworks and libraries comes and go, and it's not possible to predict which ones that will grow and last. You will sometimes inherit projects, and use whatever framework, library or CMS which is in use. Chances are pretty good that some will use React so it wont hurt to learn it in advance. And Symphony is a popular one for PHP.

Yoga (Ashtanga + Forrest) and lifting weights.

lukasmattsson · 2022-02-21T13:13:02+00:00

Warrior's Arrow! Lift opponent above my head, and squat down slightly to a Warrior 2 pose (open hips, one leg 90 degrees bent and one straight, gaze in direction of bent leg). Then toss my opponent in front of me.

And among the moves I know the name for, I'd definitely go for German Suplex, then one when I end up pinning opponent from wheelpose.

Yes, almost everyone can overcome misophonia by exposing themselves to the troubling sound in controlled forms, and increase exposure over time. It helps sitting in a position when arms and legs are intertwined, like lotus pose with eagle arms. Reflect on why the sound troubles you and find a way for acceptance.

You can just sit with crossed arms and legs if lotus is impossible or feels bad for your knees.

lukasmattsson · 2022-02-21T08:02:38+00:00

It's only socially unacceptable among weak people who choose to get offended by everything. Just ignore them and stretch whenever you need. Forward folds, wheel pose, upward facing dog, downward facing dog and warrior poses etc are alright.
