It was our fault all the time, but we didn’t know how and why and we wanted to know. We wanted to know why the build of our Angular 6 application sometimes worked and sometimes didn’t when we used the same Node+Npm versions every time. I suspected the environment differences, PATH perhaps, but the punch… Continue reading My Battle with Node, Npm, Webpack and its Progress plugin
My first video year with Canon EOS 200D (SL2)
In April 2018 I’ve bought Canon EOS 200D as an upgrade/refresh to my previous Canon EOS 450D. First I was a bit lost in all Canon product lines (despite tracking their releases occasionally) and wasn’t fully decided whether I want to go up the line (77D/80D) or even two (7D Mk II), stay in the… Continue reading My first video year with Canon EOS 200D (SL2)

Sure, I got used to Maven and we got familiar – although I never loved it (often on the contrary). I’m not sure I love Gradle (yet),… Continue reading Self-extracting install shell script with Gradle
Samsung UE50MU6170 review
So I’ve bought a new TV (it’s actually UE50MU6172 in our country, but it doesn’t matter) after roughly 9 years to upgrade our 32” screen to 50”. And it’s Samsung again. Why? Because I saw it, tried it and it didn’t dim the screen the way I hate. Little did I know that it does… Continue reading Samsung UE50MU6170 review
The Sins of (PC) Gaming Industry
It shouldn’t have sounded like “The Sins of Solar Empire” originally. Especially because the Sins are nice example how games should be made – proving that they can be successful even without anti-piracy protection. This is not a review of a couple of games. It is a review of ugly things even good games often… Continue reading The Sins of (PC) Gaming Industry
