The Architecture of Adaptability: 6 Quotes on Resilience as the New Intelligence
Feb 27, 2026 · original
I have collected hundreds of quotes over the years for inspiration. I wanted to share a few of these and my comments on how these quotes help me shape my business and design my lifestyle. “We are not provided with wisdom; we must discover it ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can take for us.” Marcel Proust We can read all the books, listen to every single podcast, watch every single documentary or YouTube video: This doesn’t change us. We only learn by doing – and failing. We have to practice and tumble to absorb the wisdom of all that content. How many times have I tried something and failed, only to remember a piece of wisdom from a book that had warned me about that mistake? “ Now I get it – that’s what they meant in that book “. We only learn from our own journey – and mistakes. “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most inte
How to speak at conferences?
Feb 2, 2026 · original
If you’ve ever wondered how people end up on stage speaking at conferences, this article is for you. I’m going to describe the different steps and share some tips & tricks to increase your odds of success. These are lessons I learned over the past 10 years of successfully giving 50+ talks on all continents. Finding the right conference The first thing to know about conferences is that they are planned months in advance, and speakers are typically selected at least a few months before the event. As a result, your first step when looking for a conference to speak at is to determine when it will take place. If it’s next month, it’s most likely too late to apply to speak. Most conferences select their speakers four months to a year before the event! To find such events, you can use AI, Google search, or aggregators such as Papercall , Sessionize (you need to create a speaker account first –
How I built a cool art display with the help of AI
Jan 12, 2026 · original
A few years ago, I came up with the idea of an art display to illustrate my tech history through code. The idea was to take meaningful code snippets from my career and have them “paint” a canvas on which the logo of my solo business, Interstate 21 , would emerge . Basically, I wanted a “The Matrix”-like effect: a wall of code that draws the business’s logo, since that code ultimately created the business itself. But I didn’t know how to make that happen without spending dozens of hours editing images and code samples. In late 2025, I decided to prompt AI to do that for me. I got something interesting and fairly close to what I had in mind, but it would not use my code snippets, just random ones instead. Both Gemini and ChatGPT failed in a similar fashion despite multiple attempts: The rendering was cool, but the code wasn’t mine, so I decided to do it manually. There were still a few hur
How to become a Google Developer Expert (GDE)?
Mar 8, 2024 · original
The number 1 question I get from people I meet is: How did you become a Google Developer Expert? I’m always happy to answer that question because I help people learn, develop, grow, and take the next step in their careers every day. I’ve been a GDE since 2017, so my honorary Experts plaque is starting to run out of space: If you want a concise answer, here is one for you: If you want to become a GDE, you have to do what a GDE does . That’s it! If you want a longer answer in podcast format, you can listen to this 80-minute-long podcast episode recorded for Adventures in Angular . And if you want a more elaborate written answer, stay here and keep reading. What’s the GDE program? First, it’s important to understand the Google Developer Expert program and what it isn’t. The program recognizes your expertise and contributions in a Google-centric technology area such as Android, Cloud, Angula

TypeScript Object Spread
Jun 6, 2017 · original
TypeScript plays a big part in making Angular a great framework. Part of the reason why it’s great is because it brings to the table a lot of features from ES2015 or even ES2017 that aren’t available yet for all browsers. Yet TypeScript allows us to use those features and transpiles them down to good old ES5 javascript, which runs great in all browsers. Today I want to highlight one of those features: Object spread, which basically allows us to copy an entire object as a part of another object: The above code turns copy into a copy of the original object. Easy enough, right? Now let’s use the spread syntax to merge two objects together: Note that when you use the spread operator, objects can have properties that have the same name. In that case, the last declaration wins, which translates into the following example: In order to keep the value of name for object b , we would have to use t
Why you should use Angular CLI
Apr 24, 2017 · original
When I first started working with Angular (back when it was known as Angular 2 beta), I had a hard time getting my head around the lengthy set-up process. After all, all Angular JS required was a single Javascript file, and now I had to download hundreds of megabytes of dependencies, install a compiler, use Node JS and npm, etc. It was definitely not fun nor easy. Plus that process would change fairly often as Angular would first favor System JS, then Webpack. Luckily enough for all of us Angular developers, the Angular team listened to our feedback and started working on Angular CLI , a tool to initialize, develop, scaffold and maintain Angular applications. The lengthy process finally became much easier: Four simple commands and now you not only have Angular installed, you also get: A local server the serves your app on locahost:4200 when you run ng serve That local server looks for fi
What’s new in Angular 4?
Mar 28, 2017 · original
Angular 4 was released last week, following the new schedule set by the Angular team that decided to release one new major version every 6 months. Wait, where is Angular 3? There won’t be any Angular 3. That’s because the Angular Router package was already at version 3.x, while all other Angular packages were at version 2.x. The Angular team decided to jump to version 4.0 for all those packages so that they are back in sync from a versioning perspective. Is Angular 4 another full rewrite of the framework? No, quite the opposite actually. Angular 4 is really an Angular 2++. The versioning strategy changed but the code is not different at all. If you know how to work with Angular 2, then you already know Angular 4. So what’s new then? In a nutshell, Angular is smaller and faster . many improvements have been made under the hood to make sure that your code compiles down to something that is
Authentication with Angular
Mar 21, 2017 · original
One of the questions I hear the most often when I teach Angular is: How do I implement authentication? There are a lot of options out there so I’ll stick with the tools Angular provides out of the box, which allow to implement authentication without any external dependency. First, I’m assuming that you’re familiar with the Component Router. In a nutshell, the router decides which component to display based on the current URL, thus emulating multi-page behavior in Angular (which is a single-page application framework). It’s easy to guess that the router will be involved in all-things authentication. By default, configuring a route in the router looks like this: Now if I want to protect the above route, I can use a guard to do that. The route declaration then becomes: In the above code, AuthGuard is a class that implements the CanActivate interface, which consists of a single canActivate m
How to migrate from Angular 1 to Angular 2?
Mar 8, 2017 · original
With Angular 4 around the corner, now is a great time to migrate to Angular 2. There is no rush though as Angular 4 is just the next iteration of what is now called Angular , the new name for v2, 4, 5,6 and so forth. As a result, per the latest branding guidelines , this article should really be titled How to migrate from Angular JS to Angular? 1) Migrate to the latest version of Angular JS As of right now, the latest version of Angular JS is 1.6. You should really consider upgrading because Angular JS 1.5+ has introduced features that are similar to what Angular now uses (components being the most important one). The main goal for 1.5 and 1.6 was to make the migration to Angular easier, so that’s the first step to take. The migration guide for all 1.x versions can be found here . 2) Get your 1.x code ready for Angular First, remove $scope from your code and use the “controller as” synta
