Battle of the Network Databases

Scopique February 22, 2021

I have to say, the more I work with React, the more I hate working with the requirements for my day job. I can’t just switch over to React at work right now but that’s OK since I’m still not 100% on…

React – Losing at Mind Games

Scopique February 18, 2021

Yesterday I had a mental meltdown with my React project. I might have mentioned that I was reading a book on working with React and a C# back-end API, and that this book was written from the perspective of using TypeScript rather…

React – What a Drag

Scopique February 16, 2021

Welcome back to our irregularly scheduled series of posts subtitled “Scopique Swears a Blue Streak At React”. Since my initial foray into the world of React, I quickly cooled on the investigation mainly because I didn’t have a lot of use for…

Grab bag for…What day is it?

Scopique December 9, 2020

I don’t know why I ended up here. I had opened several browser windows and apparently this was one of them. Using my sensitive dowsing powers, I was drawn here for…some reason. I don’t think I have much to say, and only…

Interfaces Again: Separation of Concerns and Dependency Injection

Scopique November 13, 2020

We interrupt this usual flow of entertainment posts to bring you a special PSA. We take you live, now, to our studios in Burbank. Over to you, Chet. This post is going to be really niche (and really long, sorry), but as…

Discord Sucks, Adapt or Die, and Learning is Going To Hell

Scopique September 21, 2020

I’ve been trying to learn about the Core game platform for the past week. I’ve spawned copies of some complex games made by Manticore and have gone through each element, checking out the properties and, if relevant, the scripts associated with them.…

Core Game Development Platform

Scopique September 15, 2020

You may remember a while back I had posted a lot about an online game platform called Crayta. For a while, I was really into Crayta, learning Lua again and hopefully creating useful widgets that I and other aspiring game developers could…

Developer Confidential: I Just Started Caring About Interfaces

Scopique August 17, 2020

I have a confession: I am not that good of a developer. I have a very high level understanding about how applications work for the most part, specializing in the types of applications I am asked to create for my job. As…

The Satisfyingly Unsatisfactory Approach of Planning It All Out First

Scopique August 9, 2020

I don’t know why, but I was struck with a bit of inspiration while kicking back and doing absolutely nothing yesterday afternoon (literally: I was at my desk, feet up, contemplating a nap). As you might know, I have been semi-obsessed (semi…
