Submitting A PR Without Unit Tests Is Like Having A Manhattan Without A Cherry

I <3 Three.js

Being able to access all of the WSL distros, the powershell, and the cmd from the same place is a super cool feature with the new windows terminal, but you know what’s even cooler? Getting to change all of the colors and fonts so easily. I’m very happy.

CSS, the most toxic lover

Oh CSS,

I have not a single guess

how one can hope to ever

with you win success.

Sweet CSS, 

you leave my sanity a mess

and my div tags all in shambles

while I trudge on with hopelessness.

Bitter CSS,

though you display indifference

as you treat me miserably

to you I will always return, nonetheless.

Then 2 weeks after this, looking at the chaos that is your disorganized, jumbled mess of code angry and disappointed in yourself.

Rinse and repeat.

Am i the only one who does this

I like that a Razor pages app (and really ASP at large) makes organization effortless, but I do not like how complicated a simple project becomes because of that organization. 

Yes yes I know that it’s not made for small projects and it exists for large, enterprise endeavors, but still. Just let me pass data to my pages without 3 hours of configuration.

Out with the old... 

and in with the new...  

Writing mergesort in Scheme makes me sooo grateful for python. And Javascript. And Java. And Ruby. And C#. Heck, I’m even grateful for C, at least it lets you access specific list indices.

Now that I have a degree in computer science, I will insist that I am a scientist and must wear a lab coat and goggles while I work as a software developer.

You’d think after all the time I’ve spent on front-end dev I’d be able to at least write efficient CSS. You’d think.

Alright so I find myself liking C# and the .NET framework. For anyone who hasn’t delved into understanding what it is and WHY it is: .NET is, like all other frameworks, a collection of tools for developers. Except this one is on steroids, and tailored to Windows BY Microsoft, meaning you can make awesome Windows applications without tracking down everything you need. It’s all just right there. 

C# is basically C++ with all of the .NET adapters actively available. You can also think of it like Java but instead of running inside of the JVM, it runs on Windows. 

Microsoft’s documentation is also really well-written for it, which is nice.

BONUS in case anyone is curious: ASP.NET is a framework that extends the overarching .NET to provide tools specifically for web application dev. I haven’t gotten far into the ASP documentation yet so I can’t say much about it other than that.
