Working on a group entry (carnival management), and a solo entry (Unstable: The Horse Story) this weekend for #ldjam. https://t.co/GXlyuQxkXh

Ludum Dare theme is "Unstable". Un. Stable. terrible. Amazing. #LDJAM

Started looking into #vuejs. Been working with React on/off for a couple of years and just not in love with it. I'm reading Vue is more OOP, which fits in better with my dev style.

Summer means I have a full-time team of student developers. #agile #scrum adoption has been smooth. Learning #es6 and the latest #react.

February is kicking off my team's migration from javascript/jQuery to #react. Leveling up our JSON-powered micro apps for online courses.

Eight years ago I wrote a JS/Zend social game framework. Finally getting back to making browser games again. A new #javascript game framework begins tonight. #pbbg

Using GitHub's new package manager for work and personal projects. Great so far, but awaiting yarn support.

Improving the product development process is as much about improving team morale as it is about improving the product.

Watching my junior devs (and students at OSU) grok our latest #javascript framework is quite exciting and rewarding.

Sometimes I wonder how many of the post-Rails frontend-first web developers out there are completely unaware that you can build an application that lives on a server, talks directly to an SQL database, and sends fully rendered HTML to the client.

Working on the CI/CD pipeline for a new library. Interesting, and a lot of ground to cover in the coming weeks.

Everyone needs to hear "The anti-CEO playbook". I would love to work with @hamdiulukaya / @chobani, and it doesn't even matter the role. Cannot be overstated how important healthy work/community/culture is. #tedtalk https://t.co/QfKRCzlkSP

Working on a @sketchfab custom viewer to allow per class annotations on a single model, improving access to @osuecampus's 3d model collection.

There's this on-going trend in entrepreneurship. If your life wasn't hard, your works count for less. We diminish the contributions of our parents and it's unfair to them.

In many cases, they survived so you could thrive. Not everyone has to have the bio of Shawn Corey Carter.

I've been using #scrum for roughly 8 years; but now I'm a certified Scrum Master through @Scrumdotorg. Thanks to the excellent workshop @Agile_ity, all three @OregonState participants are certified.

First #WordPress plugin submitted for review.

[Nick Breslin @devbreslin]

First version of my #WordPress analytics plugin for forms tested in Safari and Chrome, so far. Compatible with Contact Form 7.

[Nick Breslin @devbreslin]

Glad to see more folks using web analytics and digital ads, though attribution and tracking remains a problem. #webmarketing

Sublime Text 3.0 released a couple weeks ago. I love all the improvements and polish. https://t.co/0Rep2bs7F8
