This is a common problem, and the answer to solve the problem is quite simple. Just add the following environment variable: POSTMAN_DISABLE_GPU to your system environment settings, and set the value to true.

Came across this list of handy little angular tools that I’ll definitely be using moving forward: https://blog.mgechev.com/2017/04/23/angular-tooling-codelyzer-angular-cli-ngrev/

Additional Tools:

• Angular Setup https://angular.io/guide/setup
• AngularJS to Angular Migration Guide: https://angular.io/guide/upgrade
• Angular Style Guide: https://github.com/johnpapa/angular-styleguide/blob/master/a1/README.md
• Angular API:  component docs https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/provider/$compileProvider#component 
• https://medium.com/hoopeez/angularjs-migration-transitioning-to-component-architecture-476f380c1bfd
• ngma (ngMigration Assistant) and how to use https://github.com/ellamaolson/ngMigration-Assistant
• ngMigration Community Forum https://github.com/angular/ngMigration-Forum/wiki

At the moment I’m reviewing a rather lengthy project that is using AngularJS on the client side (with ASP.Net as it’s backend) as I plan out a migration strategy to move from AngularJS to Angular 7.

So I figured it would be a good idea to blog about the experience, as it pertains to common gotchas and strategies that other developers might one day run into.

The plan here is to closely follow the Angular upgrade documentation to ensure a clean and best practices migration. The first steps here are to review the code and look for common Angular code style-guide issues, as this is something the upgrade talks about first.

I’m just going through all the files, taking notes of every component that has issues. The most common ones here are things like ensuring that:

• All components are wrapped in IIFE (we don’t want any globals anywhere):

(function () {
     'use strict';  
      angular
         .module('app.xxx')
      ....
})();  

• Each component is in it’s own file:
  • .config
  • .constants
  • .controller
  • .directive
  • .factory
  • .filter
  • .provider
  • .run
  • .service

I’ll be blogging about this as things progress, and if anyone has issues or questions please feel free to email me about them. mailto:info@tedneustaedter.com

So here’s a pretty extensive list of blog ping URLs that I’ve managed to scrape together from different sites. I use WordPress, which makes it really easy to add them so that each time I post something, they all get pinged automatically.

If you’re using WordPress, you can simply click Settings/Writings and put them in the “Update Services” section at the bottom of the page, then save your changes.

Anyway, here’s the list I use:

Okay so I’ve moved my blog site off of Blogger.com and into this new site. The theme seems to be working nicely and I haven’t had any issues so far. If you see anything, please comment and let me know.

So here’s a trick I learned in case someone is having trouble adding an inherited windows form control to a derived class’ group box.

You’ll find if you try to drag/drop the inherited control, it won’t actually be addable to the group box.

So the trick here is, while you’re dragging with the left mouse button into the group box, click and release the right mouse button, and you’ll notice the control is now a child of the group box.

That’s all there is to it.

Okay, so it’s not the “complete” list, but it’s definitely a list of important CLI commands.

Generate Linux Commands

Docker Commands

docker exec -ti <container-id> bash
docker run -P –privilege –net=host -td <image-name:version>
docker commit [-m “message”] <container-id> <image-name:version>

So I’m not going to waste a lot of time explaining the “how come?”‘s here. I’m simply going to give you some tips to reduce CPU usage of the WindowServer on MacOS Yosemite.

So here they are:

1. MacOS, despite what some may tell you, does require the occasional reboot.  So start there, just to clean things up. 
2. Shutdown apps you don’t need to reduce memory usage, thus reducing the likelihood of swapping. 
3. Disable Transparent Effects as follows:
1. Apple > System Preferences > Accessibility
2. Select Display
3. Check “Reduce Transparency”
4. Disable “Spaces” if you’re using multiple displays as follows:
1. Apple > System Preferences > Mission Control
2. Uncheck “Displays Have Separate Spaces”
3. Uncheck “Automatically rearrange Spaces based on most recent use”
4. Reboot

To say that upgrading from Windows 8 to 8.1 can be a pain is an understatement.  I’m helping out this one person right now who keeps getting stuck at 82% during the upgrade.  So I thought I’d compile some info around the upgrade process.  Hopefully this journey will bear fruit for everyone having these issues.

To upgrade the operating system to Windows 8.1 following these steps exactly:

1. Disconnect any external devices connected to the computer like printers, cameras, smartphones, scanners, USB drives, etc. that aren’t essential to the upgrade. You can always plug them back in and install them AFTER you get the upgrade done. Obviously the mouse and the keyboard will need to remain plugged in. 
2. Uninstall ALL antivirus or internet security software before you begin, so they don’t interfere with the setup program. This is VERY IMPORTANT. And hey, don’t worry, the Windows Defender software will still be running on windows, so it’ll keep your system safe during the upgrade process. 
3. Make sure you install any pending Windows upgrades before you start the upgrade to 8.1. 
4. If your PC comes with custom “help desk” software that helps you install upgrades/device drivers/bios/firmware updates be sure and do that as well. 
5. Now do a clean boot of your machine by following the steps outlined here:
• https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135
6. Start the upgrade to Windows 8.1
