Oh hey, if you’re in the Orlando area next weekend you should check out my presentation on Deliberate Practice.
If you are into the topic, you can also follow along with the articles I’ll be posting over at @CodingBlocks: https://www.codingblocks.net/practice/
I had the pleasure of sitting in on the first public Productivity in Tech round table discussion. It was a fantastic experience, huge thanks to host Jay and to the rest of the crew!
Oh hey, I made a little game with Unity 2017. Check it out!
I’d make it open source, but I used some paid assets.
Yep, Coding Blocks hit 2 million a while go, seems like just a few months ago we hit the 1m mark.
In addition to the podcast we’ve branched out into videos, so make sure to check those out too!
Here are a couple of the playlists I’ve worked on:
Finally, in addition to Coding Blocks I’ve also managed to scam my way onto a few others:
Well, that’s the highlight reel. See you in another couple months!
Most of my extracurricular energy is still going into Coding Blocks, but I thought I’d share some recent highlights over here as well.
For example…
Coding Blocks crossed an important milestone last year, big thanks to everyone for supporting us! Go check out the site to check out the latest episodes.
I think dedicated practice is the best way to improve at anything, so I created a series of videos to practice technical interviews. It’s tough to talk and program at the same time!

I’ve been not-so-secretly working on a podcast over at CodingBlocks.net. I’ve been doing a lot of research to try and nail down exactly what I want in a podcast.
As part of that research I’ve been exposed to a lot of new listening.
Here are a few of my favorites:

I put together a collection of audiobooks that get mentioned whenever the discussion turns to “reading”.
Unfortunately there aren’t many books about code, but there are some for the infosec crowd and even more for those with an entrepreneurial bent.
