Why I'm Leaving Microsoft - Paul Mestemaker
http://paulmestemaker.com/why-im-leaving-microsoft
Why I’m Leaving Microsoft. Looks like it’s about that time… after 7 years, I’m leaving Microsoft! This may come as a shock to people who I’ve met over the years, so I’d like to give you all some insight. This past year was a transformational year for me. I had completed my responsibilities to launch the closest thing to a startup Microsoft had to offer. Some random health issues. In short: my very stable and predictable life had become incredibly uncertain and unfamiliar in a short amount of time. In my ...

Miles Davis – blind listening test - Noise made me do it - sound,music and things that tickle your ears
http://www.noisemademedoit.com/miles-davis-blind-listening-test
Noise made me do it. Sound,music and things that tickle your ears. Miles Davis – blind listening test. Down Beat Magazine interviewed Miles Davis in 1964 and asked him for his opinion on some music via a blind listening test, and checked his ability to pick out other musicians based on the way they played. Now, Miles Davis wasn’t known for listening to just about anything – he was very selective in what he spent his time listening to, so he’s definitely got some opinions. On Les McCann-Jazz Crusaders.

16×16 Pixel Art Tutorial. Fire up your app of choice (mine is GraFX2. But you may be more comfortable with Photoshop, GIMP or what-have-you), and make a new 16*16 pixel document. Done? OK, now take my hand and I’ll walk you through the steps of pixeling a frog. Step 1 – OUTLINES. Using black colour, make a little drawing inside the bounds. Now, 16×16 pixels can seem like a very small space, and it is, but it will teach you the first lesson of pixel art, to make each pixel count. Step 3 – SHADOWS. One nea...

Why I Taught My Daughter To Code (A Little). Wednesday, May 16, 2012. There was definitely plenty of work around, but some high end jobs weren't remotely possible - not just clerical work, but professions that required a lot of information management, like the medical and legal professions. Please don't tell me not to learn to code. Over this past year, there have been commentary back and forth on whether everyone should learn to code. A few free, interactive sites like Codecademy.

Snappy Dashboards with Redis. It seems that almost every application I’ve worked on has some sort of dashboard component. It’s not usually the first feature but it often becomes the most useful. Dashboards are great because they tell you a little bit about everything. But dashboards are hard to build. A local deal API, we have a simple dashboard. All of these stats follow a pretty standard query pattern:. Here’s how it works. For every stat we’re interested in, we set a few keys:. Stat}/year:{YYYY} {stat...
