Pyramids be gone!

ES7 Async Functions

JavaScript is getting async functions (or already has them if you count Babel.JS) and with them a way to finally slay the evil pyramid. This new language feature lets you write asynchronous code that almost looks synchronous, while maintaining the same semantics as promises. This lets you shed your .then and .catch boilerplate and escape those nested callbacks in favour of clean, explicit, maintainable code.

Swapping the django user model during the lifecycle of a project (django 1.8 guide)

I've come to a point where I had to swap django's user model with a custom one, at a point when I already had users, and already had apps depending on the model. Therefore this guide is trying to provide the support that is not found in the django docs.

Django warns that this should only be done basically at the start of a project, so that the initial migration of an app includes the creation of the custom user model. It took a while to do, and I ran into problems created by the already existing relations between other models and auth.User.

There were good and not so good things regarding my project state, that influenced the difficulty of the job.

Things that made the swap simpler

1. My custom user also had an id field, that's just a usual default django id

// When creating shaders for Universal Render Pipeline you can you the ShaderGraph which is super AWESOME!
// However, if you want to author shaders in shading language you can use this teamplate as a base.
// Please note, this shader does not necessarily match perfomance of the built-in URP Lit shader.
// This shader works with URP 7.1.x and above
