Technical Know-How - Continual Forgetting

Image
Yesterday, I met with a friend of mine from a previous company where i worked for 3 years as an Angular developer.  He at a new company now but still working with Angular as the primary tech stack.  I found myself trying to recall a bit of what I knew about Angular... and totally drawing a blank. I was a full-time developer in this technology as recently as 2.5 years ago, and I found I couldn't even remember what the code looked like.  Would i even recognize my own code if i saw it? Similarly, I talked with a friend of mine who is working to learn software engineering, and I told him that I very much enjoyed Vue and found it to be "the most fun" out of the frameworks in which I've written production code: KnockoutJS, AngularJS, Angular (2+), React, Vue, and Ember.  He asked me what makes it the most fun.  I could think of a few things that gave me that impression and gave a passable answer (dynamic attributes, terse syntax, v-if and v-else in the template, etc.)...

Much to be Thankful For

I'm in Wichita now for Thanksgiving with my whole family in the car.  The whole 3.5-hour drive--with 8 of us in the car--as well as the large Thanksgiving dinner and hangout time afterward have all been delightful.  The kids are consistently kind and considerate to each other and express sweetness and joy throughout the day.   My wonderful wife is such an enormous blessing to me.  My heart is full of love and gratitude.  Christine is the best wife and mother I know, and it just floors me to think that I get her all to myself.  How in the world did i ever get this lucky?

NG-Conf: My First Tech Conference

Image
As i write this, I'm in Salt Lake City Utah preparing to start Day 2 of NG-Conf--a  3-day tech conference that attracts hundreds of developers from around the country to learn the latest trends and best practices for development using the front-end Angular framework.  Here are a few thoughts: 1. The technical aspects of this conference are top-notch.  After watching something like 15 different keynote speakers on Day 1 using thousands of slides and several multi-media presentations, I couldn't identify even one technical glitch or delay due to technical issues.  This is remarkable. 2. I find myself frequently trying to assess the skill level of the room to see where I fit in.  Obviously, this should't matter too much, but I often wonder how I measure up in my industry.  Many of the speakers were moving through their subjects so quickly that I had a hard time following them.  Was that unusual?  Were most others feeling the same way or were they...
