Tackling hard code over the long term
by
Been tackling a hard code problem that requires a deep understanding of the way that a service renews and flags users as renewed. The time of the day this happens matters. How the specific user data is stored matters. The extra hard part is I keep having to take a week or two away from…

M1 MacBook Pro or iPad Pro?
by
Decent comparison of the two devices. My choice is iPad as my primary device.
