FB App & this weekend & movies

Tuesday, November 13th, 2012 at 11:37 am

Worked crazy hours this weekend.
I think Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday…must have worked around….12 hours each day, on average. 48 hours in 4 days.
Made incredible progress on my Facebook App. When it’s live, I’ll toss you guys a link.

It’s got the most well built PHP I’ve ever done; that said, I know there’s still lots of room to improve. Need to start organizing my code better: MVC.
I have a confession: I finally built my first mySQL statements (Insert/Select)….ever. I learned PHP 2.5 years ago but never did them….seriously.
I always knew it was easy and never bothered/needed to learn it…I know how ASP Classic and ASP.NET connection strings and database connections work so I wasn’t worried. Anyways, learned it in like, 2 minutes. It’s so ridiculously easy. And using phpMyAdmin for SQL is ridiculous too. It’s so powerful and easy compared to MSSQL. I can’t believe…how much better it is that ASP and MSSQL. I’ve always thought I was an ASP guy as many corporations wouldn’t use PHP…but I think I’m changing my mind. PHP is where it’s at.

While I was deving, I was also watching many things (as per usual). Something to entertain me while I dev but doesn’t require my full attention, especially for a movie I’ve seen before. Anyways, this was my movie watch list for Sat, Sun, and Mon:

  • Good Will Hunting
  • Gone in 60 Seconds
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Secret of the Ooze
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3
  • TMNT
  • Turtles Forever
  • Casino Royale
  • Quantum of Solace
  • Independence Day
  • Jurassic Park
  • Catch Me If You Can
  • The King’s Speech
  • Pursuit of Happyness
  • Star Wars IV: A New Hope
  • Iron Man

At 2 hours/movie, it’s 32 hours right there!

My Tier 1 favs in there: Catch Me If You Can
My Tier 2 favs in there: Iron Man, Pursuit of Happyness, The King’s Speech, Good Will Hunting
My Tier AWFULS in there: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3. That is an AWFUL AWFUL MOVIE.

That’s it for now. Need to sleep! Gnite!
