Today in the library I saw BBC micro:bit kit and I am quite excited about it. I have few weeks to play with it. I know it is a tiny micro programmable computer. Not sure how it works but looking forward to explore it.

I made my first youtube video for educational purpose in 2011, that was 8 years ago. I had a windows machine back then and I made quite lot of videos, mostly on Drupal. Those videos were really bad (when I look at them now), when I say bad I mean as compared to my current videos which are not great either. My audio was bad, I was not talking properly, the delivery was not great either although the content was useful. I stopped making videos for a long while because youtube was not a big thing yet in India at least 8 years ago. It was a good platform but nothing like right now. I had other priorities in life so I didn't bother much. Around 2 years ago I though I should restart creating videos. My objective was simple - I wanted to learn new things and I know from my experience that when…

I have been making lot of videos lately on my youtube channel and few other channels. I like making videos but I was thinking will people consume content in only video format in future? I doubt it. You never know but there is a something about writing that videos can never replace. Do you agree?

I bought my first Mac in 2013 but honestly I never used it a lot. I bought it to create a mobile app for a client and then later to watch movies and youtube videos but for the past 2 years I have been using Mac as my main computer and I am by no means an expert on using Mac but everyday I learn something good.
Today I was wondering how can I quickly view the directory structure of a folder. After doing a quick google search I found on utility called tree. Yes simple tree command that you can run on your mac but you need to install it first.
Just type the following command. I am assuming you have brew already on your mac. If not then go to https://brew.sh and download it.
brew install tree
That is it really. Now go ahead and try this command.
$tree

Not really, writing has always been my favourite thing to do. these days although I have been making lot of videos. Reason is simple. I am liking it and I realise that videos are the future. That doesn't mean that people will stop writing or reading it will stay forever.

I started creating tutorial videos for Structure app in Jira. It will be a series of videos which I will organise in a playlist.
Check here https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_E9T0Z4ua15Dnv8IhB9H8fX23Gd_jRdP
This is the link to the playlist. I have tried creating short videos so it is easy for everyone to follow and at the same time you can just watch videos relevant to you.
If you have no prior experience on using Structure then start with the first video in the playlist.
Enjoy.

Feels good to wear a suit, it automatically boosts your confidence by 500% but of course it is lot of hassle to wear it and when wearing a suite you a little conscious as well about your appearance, but sometimes I do think that we should dress up well everyday when going to work. Your appearance does make a big difference.
