## I began coding because...

I realised I was more interested in what my dev team was doing than my own job (I was a digital producer at the time). I've always been interested in technology but never thought I could be a developer, and one day, I decided to quit my job and give it a try so I joined a coding bootcamp called General Assembly. It's definitely been one of the best decisions of my life.

## I'm currently hacking on...

the Emotiv Epoc brain sensor and Node.js. I love tinkering and experimenting with hardware so I've started writing a framework to interact with a brain sensor in JavaScript. It's still not 100% working but I've learnt a lot!

## I'm excited about...

too many things! :D There is so much to learn, I don't even know where to start! At the moment, I'm trying to focus on learning some basics of VR, AR and machine learning.

## My advice for other women who code is...

to build a network of great people around you, who will help you grow and with who you can share your experiences (good and bad). If you feel like you have people around you to support you, it is way easier to do things out of your comfort zone like running a workshop, writing blog posts, etc... and these things are so valuable! :)

## I began coding because...

I was really curious in high school and I knew I wanted to create things everybody can use, something that everybody could reach when having a computer. 

## I'm currently hacking on...
on E-commerce for LATAM, this is going to be the next BIG thing!!!

## I'm excited about...
being part of the software industry evolution, inspire other women to get into this industry, show the new generations this is a place where anybody can grow and learn 

## My advice for other women who code is...

My advice for other women who code and for everyone on the TI industry is to never stop learning and growing, never give up. There might be times when you feel you don't fit in, but that's only inside your mind, you can accomplish whatever you wish ( with effort and dedication of course ) :D

Code is Suffering
Published: 2016-06-09 15:07:58

<p>No, you will not be able to scale your CSS without pain. Your attempts to circumvent its shortcomings through transpilation, inlining, strict conventions, etc. will help, but you are not on a path to being free from the ache. You are just on a path. Your attempts to add rich interactions on the client will make it more difficult to do basic things like refer to the path of an image. Things might get better when you get over this hump, but there is another hump is looming. Your desire to improve your server&rsquo;s performance will be fraught with opportunities to shim a solution for immediate gains. You will struggle with the tradeoffs and do what you hope is best. For every complexity problem you solve, the universe will offer you two new ones in the form of innovation. The abstractions you use are leaky. This will cause pain when&nbsp;addressing edge cases. The closer-to-the-metal solution will add constant development burden.</p>
<p>Your practices, like test driven development, will ease the suffering, but they&nbsp;will not sedate you. You will crave solutions that ease your irritation, but the fixes will just be a blip as you walk the path of code. You will rightfully look for, and find, solutions that work better for you. You are not a masochist, after all. Perhaps your church of Go, React, Rails, and so forth, will numb the burn. This might be exactly what you need, but the suffering is still there. There will be no salvation. Not from Rust, not from Ember, not even PostCSS.</p>
<p>You will often love it. You will feel like a magician at times. There will be days&nbsp;when the suffering bothers you. There will be times when it's all good. When you are happy, with your code and otherwise, the brutal realities of security, compatability, complexity, bureaucracy, scalability, etc. will not have gone away. Much of the time, these will&nbsp;be&nbsp;fascinating puzzles and&nbsp;will&nbsp;bring you much joy.&nbsp;The ebs and flows of your relationship with the code are but transient droplets&nbsp;in the waterfall that is code.</p>
<p>Code is suffering.</p>

Julian Applebaum stopped by to discuss the challenges of moving Squarespace's Java monolith to a service-oriented architecture. Julian describes drawing boundaries between different layers of business logic and discovering fundamental tensions in restructuring application logic throughout the migration. Squarespace's journey to a series of RESTful API endpoints was a matter of building services and integrating them slowly as they became reliable. This move was inevitable for Squarespace's team of about 100 engineers.

[label - JavaScript MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/label)

Essentially it is something like _goto_ but only for loops and labeled blocks.

![js label](https://thepracticaldev.s3.amazonaws.com/i/2fz3eq68f9ft0pr461cv.png)

I'm curious to see what's the worst example you can think of using labels?

Or is there by any chance a very useful way to use them?

The possibilities are endless!

Up to the current version 23 the front page happily stated that you need at least 10.1B to run the DataDigger.  
Today, it turned out that that is a lie ![😦](https://s0.wp.com/wp-content/mu-plugins/wpcom-smileys/twemoji/2/72x72/1f626.png)

The main program uses the FINALLY statement and that was introduced in version 10.1C so that is the minimum version you can use to run DataDigger.

If you are stuck on 10.1B and still want to use the DataDigger, just open up DataDiggerLib.p **&nbsp;** and search for “FINALLY”:

![101b_upgrade](https://datadigger.files.wordpress.com/2017/06/101b_upgrade.png?w=840)

Remove the FINALLY block entirely. On restart, DataDigger will recompile itself.

I still use Firefox

title: I still use Firefox
published: true
description: And it's because of one simple feature.
tags:

Chrome is really popular. I'm pretty sure everyone knows it. [Chart confirmation](http://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share). I still use Firefox.

### Side Tabs

A good side tabs extension is the primary reason I use Firefox. A row of tabs on top is the worst thing ever. Lists are great:

![Side Tabs](https://thepracticaldev.s3.amazonaws.com/i/48uta77gpvm5sclv84h4.png)

I use the "Tab Tree" extension (thank you Sergey Zelentsov). Chrome has a handful of side tabs extensions, but I don't consider them usable.

### That's It

Side tabs is the only reason I use Firefox.

### What's different?

Since I'm using Firefox on my laptop, I'd like everything to sync to my phone so I don't have to retype all my passwords. I like Firefox for Android's tab screen better than Chrome. That's the only difference I notice so that works out pretty well.

I'm in the dev tools quite a bit throughout the day, and I find the Firefox dev tools more intuitive. Chrome can take it's 'Elements', 'Sources', 'Application' tabs and shove it - I prefer 'Inspector', 'Debugger', 'Storage'. Honestly it's not a big difference to me. Some people feel strongly about dev tools.

Should I ever be debugging a cross-browser issue, my other (more popular) browsers are clean installs. Nice to have.

Firefox doesn't support integrated windows authentication. That's alright by me.

I don't understand why more people don't demand side tabs.
