Bad Defaults

It happens to the best of us. In development, everything has to land somewhere. There has to be default behavior where a user experience can be optimized. One example of default behavior is Google search results. The result is that you get the exact pages you want on the first page of Google’s results. I […]

My Honours Project – Golf Game

I was pretty ambitious back in 2003 taking on a Golf Game written in Java. While it didn’t turn out to be a full fledged golf game, I had the beginnings of a 3D engine, forked from a Surface Plotter written by Yanto Suryono. I had a hole creator and I had the physics integrated […]

Memory is Funny

I remember telling people that I wrote a 22 page paper on SPAM back in 2003. It was 16 years ago. And as it turns out, the paper was 41 pages. And I found it when recovering an old drive today. Here it is:

The Biggest Benefit to Social Media

I wish I could remember the headline of the article my boss posted tonight. I no longer have access to it because I unfriended him.

Beware of Badgination

After 7 or so years as a Web Developer, I explored the idea of being a marketer. I have always had great respect for “Marketing Guys”. Even though calling them that is a huge insult (they typically are the most conscious of job titles and seemingly hold titles in high esteem) I think it is […]

Upon looking to cite the link above as a source, I stumbled upon a top Google result (currently second only to the Netflix trailer page itself) called What Netflix’s ‘Great Hack’ Gets Wrong About Cambridge Analytica and subtitled: The British consulting firm didn’t steal the […]
