Study Overview

I've started my preparation for the MCSA Exam 70-480, focusing on Programming in HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS3. The material is comprehensive, spanning a total of sixteen chapters. As I've been skimming through, I’ve noticed that I already know a fair bit of the content, but the book dives deeper into topics like lossy vs. lossless compression. It’s interesting to understand why one would choose JPG, GIF, PNG, or SVG—something I hadn’t paid much attention to before. So, in that sense, this book has proven to be quite useful.

 

Progress Updates
  • →6/3 — Completed Chapter 1 & 2: Getting familiar with Visual Studio 2012 and HTML5.
  • →6/4 — Completed Chapter 3: Focused on JavaScript.
Sometimes, it actually helps to study with a pint of beer! Pairing the JavaScript session with a Sidecar also makes for a good study session.

Update: December 17, 2017 - Cancellation

As life goes, I’ve decided to give up my studies in Web Apps for now. I do wish I knew where my Platinum 3776 Fountain Pen went—it was the last pen I used while studying this book.

 

Closing the book on MCSA 70-480 and looking for a lost Platinum 3776.

Sony MDR-ZX100 vs ZX-110 vs ZX-310 Series Headphones

Gear Review Budget Audio Face-off: Sony ZX Series Review Comparing the ZX-100, ZX-110, and ZX-310 for your everyday carry ~3 Models ~$10–$20 Price 2.5+ Years Longevity Table of Contents ① Build Quality ② Cost Comparison ③ Sound Quality ④ Overall Value ⑤ Upgrade Path Section I Build Quality The Sony ZX series headphones primarily feature a durable plastic construction. My ZX-100 has lasted over 2½ years, enduring countless tosses into my backpack and car without any issues. However, the lower-end ZX-100 and ZX-110 models have a significant downside: poor-quality earpads.   The Earpad Problem Over time, the earpads on the ZX-100 and ZX-110 disintegrate, leaving vinyl flakes that stick to your hair and ears. The ZX-310 comes with upgraded earpads that don't suffer from this problem — a clear win in the build department. Tip: If your earpads start to flake, it is a sign of material degradation; consider replacing the cushions or upgrading to a model with more durable synthetic lea...

While features are always a plus, my main priority is size. Here's how some of the models I've tried stack up. 5600 Series For overall size, the 5600 series stands out as a favorite due to its compact, comfortable form. It's slim, lightweight, and fits well on my wrist without being too bulky. Although the 6900 series provides the benefit of a well-placed front illumination button, the 5600 remains the ideal size for everyday wear.   Section II Best Compromise: G900...
