Whenever I wrote this in the past, I always checked what I had written the year before. I checked whether I had set myself any goals, and how I had or hadn't achieved those. Well... 2019 was tough due to personal reasons. 2020 is better left unmentioned for a lot of reasons, and 2021, though … Continue reading 2021 for Developers

Obscure References
Tim Wilson posted a tweet about obscure references the other day, which reminded me of all the things that I put into articles on the blog here, and how nobody ever called out any of those. So, because nobody has asked for it, but you are all at my mercy for it is me who … Continue reading Obscure References
The Times They Are a-Changin’
This article is absolutely not technical. At all. Instead, it is about me, and about this blog. Without further ado: I am leaving consulting. Phew, there it is. Only took me a day or so to write that. Today is officially my first day in my new role, as a manager in the Technical Account … Continue reading The Times They Are a-Changin’
2020 for Developers
Woah, what a year! I just read through my article from last year, and, boy, did we not see this coming! I did not set myself any goals for this year, and I have been scaling down ever since. The Good But I did actually achieve two things in 2020! First, I published a whopping … Continue reading 2020 for Developers
Of Shoulders and Giants

So when Randy Floyd Jr commented on my last article, and my (mild) impostor syndrome went "what? seriously?" I decided to explain how I got to where … Continue reading Of Shoulders and Giants
2019 for Developers
Another year done, phew. I did not set myself any goals this time around, and that was a good thing. At home, we had a slightly difficult year, and as a result, everything was different, slower, scaled down, more restraint. If I look at my three goals for 2018 (kick that s_code.js article of its … Continue reading 2019 for Developers
Quo vadis, W4D?
Those of you who have been to the Adobe Summit, or any other big event like it, may have been a victim of post-Summit blues - the feeling when you're back from a couple of ridiculously intense days of listening, meeting, talking, discussing, and fully committing to one single subject. It is part exhaustion, part … Continue reading Quo vadis, W4D?
2018 for Developers
It has been a fun year. Launch came in with a bang, and the "Make an Extension" series was a nice frame for 2018. Overall, the year was slightly less technical than usual, I'd say. Articles like A Standard Data Model for Requirements, When concrete meets water, or The Era of Server-side Everything were not … Continue reading 2018 for Developers
More about AMP
Building up on the recent post about Basic Tracking on AMP Pages, I want to riff some more on a couple of aspects today. Also, my colleague Susan Vertrees happened to sit next to me a couple of weeks ago, and since she knows what she is talking about, she was able to point out … Continue reading More about AMP
