Last year, my Phillies eked into the playoffs and then proceeded to knock out the St. Louis Cardinals, Atlanta Braves, & San Diego Padres to make it all the way to the world series. There, they sadly lost to the Houston Cheaters Astros. This year, they're back in the playoffs and already took out the Miami Marlins to reach the NLDS for a rematch against the Braves.

The other day in my quest to go through my podcast queue I was listening to an episode of PodRocket, The state of JS frameworks with Chris Ferdinandi. It was a good discussion on some of the downsides of frameworks like React, Vue, and the like. I would highly recommend listening to it.

The fall season has begun. The weather has started to chill which is thankful since our AC still needs repairing or replacement.

One of my side projects uses React Hook Form for my forms and ran into some speed bumps while building tests for the individual components. I figure I can’t be the only one so I figure I’ll share my solution.

One of these days I'm going to stop itching to redesign my site.

I follow Chris Ferdinandi's blog Go Make Things and he had a recent post, I follow you for tech, not politics that resonated with me.

One of the regular things you have to do when building interactive websites and applications is to build forms to allow users to enter data. In this post, I’m going to show how to build a simple form in Blazor.

A song that's been on heavy repeat is blink-182's latest single One More Time. I love the song for so many reasons.

Over the last several months I've been trying to decide how I want to keep my notes and my journals. I've gone back and forth between using a notes app and a moleskine notebook.

As I write this, my podcast queue is sitting at 1,136 episodes. Wowzers! If I listen to every episode in its entirety at normal speed would take almost 40 days. I might have a problem, and I think I need to come up with a way to help tackle this.

Since my plan to start writing more will undoubtedly cause more posts on my blog, I figured I'd write down my general workflow on how I go about writing some of my more in-depth blog posts. It might sound familiar, but thought it might help someone who might be starting out.

I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I seem to be unable to finish a project. I have a handful side projects I've been puttering around with, but haven't been able to see them through to completion.
