Tech Lead Sync Up. I just recently returned from a tech lead sync up that my department had in Austin TX. We have web teams in Austin, San Francisco and Irvine and once a quarter we meet up in one location to talk about recent problems, exchange ideas, sync up on tech decisions and other such items. My preference will definitely be Austin due to the Texas BBQ. We played our first game of Pandemic Legacy. I finally bought a 3DS. And with it Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. For the third time. We only ended ...

Blizzcon 2014 | M-x Kelsin

http://mx.kelsin.net/2014/11/12/blizzcon-2014

So this past weekend was Blizzcon 2014 and the announcement of Overwatch. Seems to have gone very well. The new announcement sites for Overwatch. And Legacy of the Void. Are extremely impressive. All of the teams working on these sites keep pushing and making the next better than the last and it shows. I was able to catch the Heroes of the Storm. Tournament finals between Evil Geniuses.

Goals for 2015 | M-x Kelsin

http://mx.kelsin.net/2015/01/15/goals-for-2015

It’s that time of year again. I want to make some new goals for 2015. 1) Stop talking over people. It is very often the case that I talk over people both at work and socially. One of many things happen:. I become way to over-excited about what we’re talking about. I think that the other end of the conversation is wrong, and want to short track fixing the confusion. I think I know what the other end of the conversation is asking and try to fix the problem or answer the question too quickly. I’m keeping th...

2014 Review | M-x Kelsin

http://mx.kelsin.net/2015/01/15/2014-review

So now that 2014 is over I wanted to look over my goals that I wrote about last year and see how I did at meeting them. 1) Blog more / Become a better writer. Pretty big failure here. I only made 38 blog posts in 2014 which is far below what I’d hoped to do. That is only 10% or one blog post every 9.6 days. I’m hoping to raise that this year. 2) Stop forgetting things / Avoid interruptions. 3) Continue learning / Work on side projects. This is the easiest goal. This year I dived into javascript. I haven’...

Stunnel | M-x Kelsin

http://mx.kelsin.net/2014/09/10/stunnel

I’ve had to test a lot of OAuth applications recently and would often need proper SSL running on localhost for them. When working on tiny little one page Sinatra. Apps I didn’t want to learn how to setup each framework to use SSL properly so instead I just use stunnel to do it. To install stunnel I just:. I then create a quick self-signed certificate to use:. Openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -out stunnel.pem -keyout stunnel.pem. And what port to connect to (. Now I can use.

Projectile and Global in Emacs | M-x Kelsin

http://mx.kelsin.net/2014/09/09/projectile-and-global-in-emacs

Projectile and Global in Emacs. Today I started using my Mac at work for java programming. When moving from windows to mac I also wanted to ditch IntelliJ and start using Emacs for java programming. This will definitely require a bunch of custom Emacs helpers in order to help navigate large projects. Along with projectile comes GNU Global. Getting this just involved installing ctags and global:. Brew install ctags brew install global - with-exuberant-ctags. Then I added the ggtags.
