summary: Incredibly secure, easy to use, but are it's trade-offs worth it?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Throughout my life, i've had many different email providers, starting with hotmail almost 10 years ago. In more recent years, i've been focusing more on ways I can secure my emails, both from potential intruders, or governments. No, I may not have anything to hide, but that doesnt mean I don't want the information I to have to be accessable easily.

summary: Introducing React-Native to the rest of the office
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Recently, at DabApps, we've been migrating our mobile app workflow over to using [react-native](https://facebook.github.io/react-native/) instead of [Ionic](http://ionicframework.com/), mainly because of its near native performance and cross-platform codebase. For the first few projects, there were only a couple of us that knew how to use React Native effectively, and work around the _qwerks_ it has. With the number of app projects growing, we needed to get more people up to speed with the react native workflow, as quickly as possible.

summary: The college needed a server, but didnt have any server admins
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Back when I was in college, we needed a server for computing students to learn how to use FTP, and script on a server using python CGI and [PHP](http://eev.ee/blog/2012/04/09/php-a-fractal-of-bad-design/#an-analogy), as well as possibly for some students coursework. Fortunately, the college already had one, running the IT students microsite for extra course information. The problem was that it was majorly out of date, and no one really new how to use it properly. It was up to me and my friend Alex to bring the server up to date, and get it ready for the students who needed it.

summary: Hacking is fun!

|
|

Personally, I dislike being limited by technology. If there's a system in place like a proxy filter, network restrictions, or even any remote control software, I just have to try and break through it or work around it. This was mostly the case at college.

summary: Call a _Blue Screen of Death_ on demand! It's more fun than it sounds
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For those that use Windows, the famous [Blue Screen of Death](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Screen_of_Death) is an annoyance that plagues computers, causing error, frustration, and even data loss. They happened to me a lot whilst I was trying to configure my computer, and I thought _I wonder who else I can annoy with a BSOD_

Dotfiles are a way for people to store their settings and preferences to make setting up a new computer that much easier. They can usually be found in a persons VCS profile.

summary: Simple script to win the Wiki Game
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For those who don't know what the Wiki Game is: [The Wiki Game](http://thewikigame.com) is an online game where you attempt to navigate through wikipedia from a start page to a goal page using as few other pages as possible. Once I was shown the Wiki Game by my friend, and after I realised that I really wasn't very good at it, I looked into how the system worked, and how I could beat it.

Once I started work, I bought myself a _Lenovo Yoga 3 14"_ laptop, because I needed a thin and light for trains etc. Unfortunately this came with windows, which within 10 minutes was running Ubuntu Gnome! Ubuntu greatly increased the performance, but I had to sacrifice all the screen, touchpad and keyboard customisation when changing 'modes'.
