Two kids (8-month year old daughter and 2,5-year-old son). Going to keep it short as it's five o clock.

I work from home and have in-ear headphones to block sound, as otherwise, it's just too distracting. I try to keep to strict hours as other wise I don't get work done ( 8 to 5, no weekends ). As I've got RSI this is not a big problem, work too much and my arms will start aching.

I've disabled all my notifications so my mind is with my kids when I'm having a day off. It will still race off thinking about products and what to build by itself but no notifications makes a big difference. I'm trying to BE there with them as much as possible.

I love that I am here to see them grow up but I hate that my brain is not always there. It's a double-edged sword.

Bitbucket for private (free), github for public. I’m a noob so also use Sourcetree.

It's not sustainable if the product requires support / updates. So basically anything except static assets. :)

For me, that would be Eve of Impact, without a doubt. It's an iOS game I designed and build from scratch in 2010 / 2011.

To pull it off I had to learn Obj-C, C, OpenGL-ES and things like memory management. Wrote my own game loop, particle engine, render engine, interface event manager, the whole shebang.

It took me two years (on and off / evening hours) to build. Released in October 2011, so it's now more than 7 years old, still looks great IMHO. I think in that 7 years it netted around 20K.

It all depends on your use case, dropdowns are a nightmare to get right as setting the dropdown for months influences the amount of options in the dropdown for days. Same goes for years.

If you're asking a user to input a birthdate it doesn't really make sense to show a date picker, as the actual day and week doesn't really matter, also, each and everyone of us have our birthdates memorized as a set of numbers, so offering separate input fields allows for quicker input.

I mostly test if <input type="date"/> is supported, if so, leave it alone (the device will show a date picker). Else, offer input fields based on the options described above.

So i'm building this plugin pqina.nl/filepond/ and am planning to create a Vue.js wrapper, is that something I could advertise on your platform? As it's not really made with Vue.js but made for Vue.js
