After a local VanJS meetup, my friends and I were tossing around project ideas. Someone referenced a website that would procedurally generate terrible ideas for video games. "A tycoon game where you draw horses indefinitely".

What a wonderful, terrible, awful idea for a game.

In this presentation, we go through the 1000 lines of Javascript and two weeks of drunken after-work coding required to produce the world's only horse drawing tycoon simulator, with Canvas, Twitter integration, the legendary HorseHash™ algorithm, HorseCurrency™, and HorseStamps®!

You'll pay for the whole seat but you'll only need the edge.

Cube Drone: Walt, why in the world are we working for a Telecom?

Walt: When a lioness chases after a herd of antelopes, she doesn't chase the strong ones - she chases the slow, weak, old ones who are no longer useful to the pack.

Cube Drone: And we're the lionesses? Walt: What? No, I was watching Animal Planet on my iPhone.

• What exactly, would you say it is that HR does, here? I think, as far as I can understand from the Wikipedia article, it's:
  • Providing a fair, unbiased mediation process for employees experiencing conflict, particularly the kind of conflict that can end in costly lawsuits or negative media attention. (Sexual harassment, discrimination, accusations of nepotism...)
  • Preventive maintenance, so that (Sexual harassment, discrimination, nepotism...) is less likely to occur.
  • Recruitment, analysis of such. (How many people are applying here? Why so few techies? Is something scaring them off?)
  • Retention, analysis of such. (What's churn? Why are so many people leaving?)
  • Hiring, analysis of such. (More anti-sexual-harassment/discrimination/nepotism layers here)
  • If there's a union, Dealing With Union Bullshit (generally ignored in software)
  • If there's government regulation dealing with employment law, making sure those regulations are being followed. (generally ignored in software)

1. Because you're on a greenfield project, you have the option to use Python3. Seriously consider it - you lose access to a few old, less-maintained libraries, but you gain infinitely less Unicode woes, which was the big change from python to python3

3. Django comes with so much User Auth out of the box. There's a pre-baked User model that you should use as your core 'user' model. There are pre-built views providing login, registration, and password-reset. Because there's a pre-cooked User model that the system provides for you, and it might not always have all of the fields that you need to attach to a user, a common pattern is to create a "UserPreferences" application, containing just the one UserPreference model, and views t
