Keeping Myself Organized Friday, January 12, 2018
My most productive months through 2017 Were from about July through to the middle of December. As I sit here in my office I wonder what happened? I’ve gone from completing real actionable items daily to feeling like I’m just spinning my tires again, but I’m definitely not. Since my first day back to work of 2018, I’ve successfully: Implemented a prototype for a potential new internal project Furthermore I’ve had 1 sit-down meeting to demo the application sprints and 3 meaningful conversations around alignment of the processes we’re looking to automate.…

Installing Node without Sudo - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Wednesday, April 8, 2015
If you’re unlike me and really don’t care about superuser permissions or having the most up-to-date releases, you can just do the regular old naive thing and use the package manager… sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nodejs However since you’re here, I’m betting this doesn’t jive with you. The idea of having to give checked out source code from the npm repository super user access makes me quite uncomfortable.…
