13 years ago:

Depression, no job after returning from Singapore, no clear direction.

Today:

Web developer, working from home, surrounded by family

My journey from a 20-year career in semiconductor engineering to the world of web development wasn't planned, but it was driven by necessity and a willingness to learn.
It took a lot of grinding, but it proves that it's never too late for a new beginning.
If you're feeling stuck, remember that change is always possible. Keep pushing forward.

Customizing WordPress?

Always use a Child Theme!

Protect your changes when the parent theme updates. It's essential for clean, maintainable code.

Do you use alternative speed test tool besides gtmetrix?

[Sherwin @EngrToDev]

@r0ktech I'm trying to show everyday.

[Sherwin @EngrToDev]

@CodeByNZ I find Ai more efficient.

[Sherwin @EngrToDev]

@KenGuient This is what I'm always confused.

[Sherwin @EngrToDev]

when using gtmetrix, do you use paid subscription?

[Sherwin @EngrToDev]

@CodeByNZ here

[Sherwin @EngrToDev]

@pootlepress My guess has to do with limitations on both platforms.

If existing users feel they want something more on their website and the platform cannot give that..

Confused why your CSS isn't working? 🤔

The Inspector Elements is your best friend for debugging!

Inspect elements, override styles, and understand the cascade. It's not just for pros – it's an incredible learning tool for aspiring web developers.

Ever notice that tiny icon in your browser tab?

That's your favicon!

It's the small but mighty symbol that represents your website in tabs, bookmarks, and even on phone home screens.

It's instant brand recognition & a sign of professionalism.

Don't leave it as a blank globe!

@Pixolomew Yes
