I changed my username to @iosparkletree. The "io" stands for input-output, and to me represents the balancing of the universe. The "sparkle" is because I love unicorns, rainbows, glitter, and such. The "tree" I wanted something earth-based, and bonus: it's a data structure.

[Stephanie Frost @iosparkletree]

Even though I made the above changes to my practice a while ago (last spring?) I still relish in the glory because that change made me better at my job every day since then. :)

happy moments at work! Every time I encounter a Hibernate LazyInitializationException, I'm like, "bring it on!" because because I've learned how to deal with those errors: use NamedEntityGraphs. Come on compiler, throw me another!

[Stephanie Frost @iosparkletree]

The NamedEntityGraph uses javax.persistence.EntityManager, which you can wire up in Spring. To do that, I had to move the database credentials from a properties file into the Spring config. This required the use of Maven's resource filtering, adding another layer of triumph.

I hope that people will find some love in their hearts and stop with this bigotry. :(

Though, the Ecological Approach is focused on Education whereas Cognitive Stigmergy is more general.

[Stephanie Frost @iosparkletree]

To be fair, my advisor already gave it a name a couple years earlier, the Ecological Approach. https://t.co/FIZoco7FJr
