The bittersweet comfort of reminiscence…
I used to walk my own way to school. Kicking at the stones and feeling strong. That was when the world seemed my own. Didn’t have to fear the unknown! Now my life is changing so much. I’m wondering if I’m losing my hold, Of things that seemed so real they bit. Now I’m so…

Dependency Injection – the Epiphany!
So, for most of you, Dependency Injection sounds like something you would associate with drug addiction. I assure you, this is not the case at all. At least not the Dependency Injection I’m talking about.

How I kicked Cross Origin Resource Sharing’s Ass!
Just this past week I was working on a project that required me to write an uploader script. Nothing new or revolutionary here. There was, however, one major fly in the ointment – the upload handling script was being hosted on a different domain to script that was submitting the upload request! This was causing…
