Finland.

@kolicaoleole Gulp or Grunt. I prefer Gulp.
-
No compass or bourbon, please! Just go fpr libsass, it's ten times faster and more efficient. No need to load up tons of useless mixins when you can implement yourself the ones you need and use autoprefixer and postCSS for the rest.
-
Me too, ST3 user for years. Took me 10 minutes to switch with 10+ packages. Loving open source and customization possibilities. Not much of a python fan, so there's that, too. You can find my settings at https://github.com/ronilaukkarinen/... and https://github.com/ronilaukkarinen/...

@DevInTheDetails It was promised for the 5 first tweeters back in yearly stages :)
-
Haha, best ever! #rofl

This meme guy is actually a guy from a design agency from only two blocks where I live, in Central Finland, Jyväskylä. Small world indeed.
-
@Studiosi It will be. Not possible in current CSS, because it is a standard.
-
For entrepreneur, there is no such thing as work-life-balance. Work is life. Work is holiday. Work is fun. Most of the time at least.
-
@Studiosi I use jeet.gs, it has @include col(1/100); With preprocessors this is possible. Also, flexbox is doing this more native way. And there will be grid upgrade in CSS4.

As for the question on how to avoid burning out, you know when it is going to the wrong direction. If you cannot stop coding because you "have to" instead of "want to", it's going sideways. I have gone through burnout and it only changed my way of thinking, not my way of coding or scheduling. You need to be aware about your feelings. If it feels good, continue doing it. If you curse it every time, you should change things and ease up a little.
-
Good question, it's the same for me. I just can't limit myself. As an introvert I do not like socializing, but I have noticed that just stopping coding, playing poker, tweeting and watching a movie instead helps. Also talking to my wife, spending time with family, the essential. Also, grab a beer sometimes. I have heard a lot about those who just cut their coding time to 7 hours a day, but that does not apply for me. I need it to be flexible, because can't sleep if I am in a middle of something.
-
In my opinion preprocessors for CSS have made things so much simpler, even the creator of CSS said they should have implemented these things back then. Jowever, frameworks can be the pain in the ass and I have personally given up for them and usually build my own. About JS, I do not even want to start. Tools arw good, if you don't overcomplicate them and know your code. as soon as you stop understanding what you are doing, the things are going to the wrong direction. My 2 cents on the matter.
-
@dfox That's what I thought, It's all right :) I have received things from that latitude before and yes, it usually takes a long time. Will wait happily.
-
I am 27 and drink coffee from 3 to 6 cups a day, double espresso. At home I drink tea. We also have whiskey and beer every other day while coding.
-
2 at work, 2 at home. Had 4 before, but always one screen more or less empty. Also, my back and neck are getting worse.
-
I still haven't seen my stickers, or the ball, but I guess it's because I live in up north Finland.
-
I met my wife in IRC channel. We are former Linux users, today we both own a Macbook and use Linux mainly as a server. Yeah, we still use IRC daily.
-
It's missing Hands - coding!
-
Fill it with the word RED x 100000000. ;)
-
I once had a situation like this, they had a cruise and it had to work offline. Wifi router and a mini laptop.
-
I think about them a bit same way than tattoos. Still unsure. Do they come off easily?
-
We also use often filler text, even some close enough phrases about the client's business, like "we make your dreams come true.". That particular one was in the first draft of one layout we provided for the client in my previous job years go and client said "I love that slogan, it's brilliant!". Some time ago we went to lunch and heard that company slogan in the radio, in exactly the same way we wrote it. Amazeballs. True story.
-
SinceI moved to Atom, using only PlainTasks with Sublime Text. My settings and packages re otherwise the same. Can be found in GitHub https://github.com/ronilaukkarinen/... and https://github.com/ronilaukkarinen/...
-
Yes, <video> and modern CSS. object-fit: contain; is awesome.
-
We also love Slack, how could I not mention Slack. Also, one of those who still use IRC.

WakaTime, Trello, PlainTasks for code project related todos, Todoist for general, Simplenote for quick notes, Typora for writing.

Cool! Thanks for reacting :) suspected the animations will not play here, but tried anyway.

We do everything with WordPress. It's awesome. :)
