Tech Pick (JavaScript)
I watched a short (15 minutes) presentation by Rebecca Hill that covered JavaScript debugging. It’s an excellent talk and demonstration of available tools beyond console.log. If you do any sort of JavaScript development (whether frontend or backend), this is well worth watching. Some topics she covers:
- using the console’s capabilities beyond console.log
-
approaches for proxying services when dealing with something that’s out of your control
-
Usage of VS Code (this was really really good) regarding:
- frontend debugging
- Node.js debugging
Media Pick (GTD Podcast)
I have found that Getting Things Done is a pretty good approach to task/project management both at home and at work.
The most recent episode of GTD Podcasts was a good one. In this episode David Allen covers the power of outcome thinking and the brain mechanism (reticular formation) in getting you from your present circumstance to the successful completion of a project (whatever it may be).
