The Mind of a 20+ Year Developer November 8, 2018

I've been coding a long time, and it has definitely had an impact on how I think. I also have an uncanny memory for things that I've built, and can usually describe the inner workings of something I wrong long ago, I think simply by imagining how I would do it today.

CRUDGEON September 20, 2018

I write apps. Crudgeon generates code from code, with go-build-like syntax like //+property. It has saved me loads of time repeatedly and will continue to do so in the future, I imagine.

Sitecore Doc August 4, 2018

It's difficult to get a grasp on a large Sitecore project, which is the main impetus behind writing Sitecore Doc. It generates HTML to summarize an entire Sitecore application on one page.

Google App Engine on Windows March 10, 2018

My first attempt at AppEngine resulted in having to hack the python that comes with it. It has since been changed and works much better!

Go Dep October 25, 2017

As I'm going through and editing all of these blurbs now, I'm reminded of some things that I thought were good at the time, and have now been replaced by things that are a million times better. Go Dep is one of those! Go modules are a thing of pure genius.

Go and Sitecore Interlude October 18, 2017

I've integrated Go heavily into tools to make development of Sitecore much more easier. Replacing Team Development for Sitecore has been hugely beneficial. Part of making it easier to use involved writing a method using Go's reflection to join multiple JSON configurations together to get the final configuration.

Go and Sitecore, Part 3 October 18, 2017

I've integrated Go heavily into tools to make development of Sitecore much more easier. Replacing Team Development for Sitecore has been hugely beneficial. This is part 3, which involves deserializing the serialized Sitecore data back into the database.

Go and Sitecore, Part 2 October 12, 2017

I've integrated Go heavily into tools to make development of Sitecore much more easier. Replacing Team Development for Sitecore has been hugely beneficial. This is part 2, which covers serialization of Sitecore data.

Go and Sitecore, Part 1 October 7, 2017

I've integrated Go heavily into tools to make development of Sitecore much more easier. Replacing Team Development for Sitecore has been hugely beneficial. This is part 1 of that thought process.

Advent of Code 2016 January 4, 2017

Advent of Code 2016 involves a white elephant gift exchange with 3 million elves :P

Go CrawlFarm Code October 5, 2016

I like to make an inventory of big software packages that I create, here it is for my crawlfarm.

New Go Project: Distributed Crawler October 4, 2016

My distributed crawler covers a lot of what Go offers. Network communication using Gob and channels, concurrent programming, goroutines. Crawl farm was fun to write, and I still break it out on occasion.

Transactional Data from Investment Account March 16, 2016

I had to go through all of my historical data from ShareBuilder (later CapitalOne Investing) to figure out how many shares I had in my investment account at a certain date. They provide all of the historical data that I needed, I just need to parse it, then figure out what the securities were worth at that date.

Advent Of Code - Day 22 December 30, 2015

Advent of Code has pretty much not topped 2015 Day 22. I had a ton of fun writing the solution.
