Back to Writing (Reprise)
I literally haven't published anything here after more than a year. I found a draft which i published but that shouldn't really count. I got motivated to update my headline as well. 12 hours later... Of course that writing effort got derailed. I'm back. Things got busy at work and so I was derailed. It's… Continue reading Back to Writing (Reprise)
I've been at work for quite a few months now. It has been an awesome start. I've had the opportunity to work on two projects now. My colleagues have been very patient with me and very helpful. It's now been four months and I am really enjoying the work that I do. I'm getting a… Continue reading
Back to writing
There was a time in my life when I wrote a LOT. Looking at my blog sites from the past, some of which are still around, I would have to say I was a much better writer then. I noticed I had a lot more flow in thought, and a lot more discipline to be… Continue reading Back to writing
First Day of Work!
After being without a job for 1 year and a few months, I finally started working again today. I had originally planned to graze into the work force by joining a 3 month education program that led to employment if you passed the course. I thought that this new country provided an opportunity for me… Continue reading First Day of Work!
Math Flashcards for the Kids!
This summer has been a lot of play time for the kids. I thought we'd incorporate some learning as well. In exchange for some TV time or video game time, we do math drills! I found a really nice codepen to use for the flash card here: https://codepen.io/phantomesse/details/uGHxn It's pretty basic but you can configure the… Continue reading Math Flashcards for the Kids!

Getting started with Phaser
While going through some pre-work for an upcoming bootcamp, I learned about phaser.io, a popular desktop and mobile HTML5 game framework. I wanted to write up some of the resources that I've found useful so I can refer to them in the future. To be updated as I find more interesting links https://gamedevacademy.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/How-to-Create-a-Game-with-Phaser-3_v2.pdf https://gamedevacademy.org/how-to-make-a-mario-style-platformer-with-phaser-3/ https://www.emanueleferonato.com/2017/04/19/using-tiled-editor-to-create-levels-and-import-them-as-json-data-in-your-html5-swipe-controlled-sokoban-game-made-with-phaser/… Continue reading Getting started with Phaser
Back to schools, learning new languages
It's been almost a year that we've been in Sweden and I think we've managed to settle in gracefully. The first six months were busy with getting my residence permit in order and looking after my youngest daughter. Once we got her into daycare, I started going to Swedish for Immigrants classes. I thoroughly enjoyed… Continue reading Back to schools, learning new languages
Can Little Kids Code?
I've always wondered how young is too young to start teaching children how to code. I guess the obvious answer to that question is at least when they know how to read and write. Or is it? Coding is nothing but a language. The real skill is really when you use it to solve problems.… Continue reading Can Little Kids Code?
