Potato Leek Soup is a classic! Nothing's better than a bowl of hearty potato soup on a chilly day. And it's easy, too! No cream needed, just purée the soup to make it thick and creamy.

Did your fence posts rot at the bottom? Here's how to install new ones—and avoid the problems that made your old posts rot.

2. Treat the Post With Preservatives (Cuprinol)
3. Place about 6 inches of aggregate in the bottom of the posthole to allow for drainage.

• Bend the torso!
• See the abstract! When looking at a photograph, you need to extract the force out of it.
• 45 diagonals and perpendiculars are dramatic
• 21:48 - Schematic!
• Be careful of "coloring book" line
• 35:15 - Draw light and rough - Draw more! - Don't rush to tighten
• Building off stick figures == Straight and stiff
• Gymnasts and dancers are trying to pose straight. We want people working!
• Don't create taffy/sausage legs (make them asymmetrical)

I really enjoyed this feature in the Sunday NYTimes, so I used the questions as writing prompts in my diary this morning.

1.What’s one thing you made this year?

2. What art have you turned to in this time?
3. Did you have any particularly bad ideas?
4. What’s a moment from this year you’ll always remember?
5. Did you find a friendship that sustained you artistically?
6. If you’d known that you’d be so isolated for so long, what would you have done differently?
7. What do you want to achieve before things return to normal?

Hey guys! A lot of people on my Instagram page asked me for a process video on how I draw cars in Adobe Illustrator CC. So here is a speed art of my process of drawing cars in adobe illustration. Today's car is the iconic Ferrari 330 P3 from the movie Ford vs Ferrari.

Skip-links play an important role in making a website accessible for everybody. Here I point out why and how you can implement them consistently.

diff <(grep somestring file1) <(grep somestring file2)

:h

I use this one a lot too. If you put it after a filename, it will change that filename to remove everything up to the folder. Like this:

grep isthere /long/path/to/some/file/or/other.txt
cd !$:h

The SQL0901 error is an incredibly frustrating error that occurs with i5 ODBC, OLE DB, and JDBC connections. Because SQL0901 is a general SQL error, it can be difficult to diagnose and harder to solve. This week I will look at one specific SQL0901 scenario, where the failure occurs inside SQL’s extended dynamic package support,

If you want to try it add the following to $HOME/.perldb:

$DB::alias{dp} = 's/dp/DB::dp/';
sub DB::dp {
    eval {
        require Data::Printer;
        Data::Printer->import(colored=>1,use_prototypes=>0);
    };
    if ($@=~/Can't locate/) {
        print 'Data::Printer is not installed';
        return;
    };
    print Data::Printer::p(@_);
}

Note: The Model, View, Controller pattern, or “MVC”, actually comes in many flavors.

Model—The application.
View—What the consumer (user) sees. Often HTML, JSON, or XML.
Controller—A thin layer connecting the View and the Model.

And that’s it! There’s nothing fancy, but it often requires explanation. The controller, as shown above, should be as thin as possible. The view should only have display logic and the model is ... what, exactly?

Dist::Zilla is an extremely powerful and versatile CPAN authoring tool, which has enabled me to relia... Tagged with perl.

What if I told you that you could freeze time in the middle of your program?

By far my favorite thing to do with the debugger is to run it against test scripts using the prove command. This takes advantage of prove’s ability to run an arbitrary interpreter through its test harness. Run it like this:

% prove --verbose --lib --exec 'perl -Ilib -d' t/foo.t

Recently, I had to do some command-line invocations from Perl. Well, let’s see what we have at our disposal then…

• system is fine, but too limited. E.g. it does not allow grabbing the output of a command, which I might need;
• qx is a joke from the past. I mean, not having a list-oriented alternative and forcing the user to do (and possibly forget) quotemeta is something I can’t bear in 2021;
• IPC::Open2 and IPC::Open3 are in CORE but require some effort to be used, which I’d like to avoid;
• IPC::Cmd seems interesting, because it’s in CORE and its run_forked seems to hit the sweet spot: it supports providing the command as an array reference, has a bunch of options and provides back everything that’s needed;
• IPC::Run, IPC::Run3, insert your favourite module here all seem very interesting and flexible, but they are not in CORE and are probably overkill in my case.

Well then, we’re done! IPC::Cmd’s run_forked for the win… right?!?

Well… not so fast.

PRINTING AT STAPLES STORES (U.S. and Canada customers): I've been really pleased with the quality of Staples prints, where you can get very inexpensive same day prints if ordering before 2 PM (with a small rush fee). For same-day/in-store 4x6", 5x7", 8x10" or 8.5x11" prints on matte paper: 

With catapult-like energy return and a design inspired by the brand’s competitive trainers, this Mach reigns supreme.
