Team Management with monday.com
25.9.2018
Experimenting with monday.com was an eye-opening experience; I always knew that team management was difficult but it always seemed like you’d need half a dozen pieces of software to bring it all together; think HR, team management, task management, CRM, billing…organization of all...
How to Get Green Blood in PUBG
24.9.2018
My current video game obsession is Player Unknown’s Battleground, also referred to as PUBG. It’s an online multiplayer game which drops yourself and 99 others into a single, large map and you battle it out until the last man is standing. It’s frustrating, heart-attack inducing...

Not secure: Chrome a weby na HTTP
30.7.2018
Minulý týden vyšla nová verze Chrome 68, která začala označovat všechny weby na HTTP jako Not secure, česky Nezabezpečeno. Zatím teda jen s šedým (i) v kroužku, bez červeného vykřičníku. Spousta hojně navštěvovaných českých webů ale není připravena. Ukažme si, jak jsme se dostali až sem a co...
Create the Google Button Effect with CSS
27.7.2018
I always found Google’s branding simple but grew to realize that was the beauty in their design; there’s something about “just enough” that is the perfect balance between bland and over the top. GMail’s design grew old over the years and Google just got around...
Build Firefox Faster with Artifact Builds
26.7.2018
Working on Firefox DevTools has always been a dream of mine, mostly because it feels like the ultimate way to give back to the development community and those that helped me become a success. And when I explain who Mozilla is and people ask “Oh, so you work on Firefox?!”, I can finally...
Realtime Cryptocurrency Rates API with coinlayer
24.7.2018
Last year when cryptocurrencies were gaining massively in value each month, I badly wanted to create a personal web project which would let me quickly buy and sell crypto outside of brokers like Coinbase; the problem I ran into was not having a reliable API for doing so. I recently discovered...

8 Digit Hex Colors
16.7.2018
One of the most requested capabilities in my early days of web development was the ability to set opacity on elements and even PNG images without the need for browser-specific CSS or hacks. Eventually we got native opacity support and even enjoyed rgba(), the ability to cite an opacity level with...

Search Git Commits Between Dates
12.7.2018
One of my weaknesses as a developer is relying on UIs to provide me the data I need. It’s not a fatal weakness but it does hamper me a bit. One prime example is relying on GitHub’s interface to review changes; git’s command line provides the information needed with commands...
Hide Information in Images
9.7.2018
If you’ve followed this blog, you know that I’m obsessed with figuring out every way to interact with, abuse, and convert different types of media. Whether it’s images, video, or audio, if something can be changed or exploited, I want to figure out how to do it. I remember...

React Node Flow
27.6.2018
Flow, the static type checker used in many React projects, feels like a gift and a curse at times; a gift in that it identifies weaknesses in your code, and a curse that sometimes you feel like you’re needlessly adjusting your code to satisfy Flow. I’ve grown to appreciate Flow...
Count Frames in an Animated GIF
26.6.2018
The animated GIF always makes me chuckle; on one hand they seem like a relic of the “old web”, on the other hand they aren’t going anywhere and their meme-like presence seem to only make them more popular. If you browse through my media blog posts archives, you’ll notice...

Convert HTML to Markdown
21.6.2018
One of my biggest mistakes with this blog was not finding a WordPress plugin that would allow me to write my posts with markdown; to this day I still need to write posts in “Visual” mode and then manually convert the post to HTML for “Text” mode. One of these days I want...
