Hopefully this blog will provide interesting Insight from someone who has programmed a good number of languages from assembly to JavaScript. I've probably forgot more languages than you knew even existed; I currently actively program in over a dozen different languages depending on the clients needs. If you are needing any custom programming or enhancements to anything posted feel free to look me up at nstudio.io or check out my github page at https://github.com/NathanaelA/.
If you are visiting me because of my NativeScript book or plugins; please feel free to check out my commercial plugins site http://NativeScript.tools and the community site http://NativeScript.rocks. In addition to being able to custom write any plugin you might need for your NativeScript application; or help debug your existing broken plugins. I offer anything from 1 on 1 to company wide NativeScript training.
If you know what load "*",8,1 is; you might have a clue as to how long I've been programming.
Hilarious, it sounds like you are programming from the prehistoric age :))
