Well - maybe eggplant parmesan (Trader Joe's pre-breaded eggplant are amazing). On the other hand, the garden's gone crazy this year (lots of rain and extreme heat) - so maybe a pound of fresh cherry tomatoes, assortment of hot peppers, garlic, onions, herbs sauteed into sauce and poured over rotini. Of course, with cheese melted thereupon.
Or - fried rice heavily laced with ToFurkey Sausages (think pepperoni - almost indistinguishable, except for the grease). Another place to put the far-too-many hot peppers.*
* I have seventeen assorted types (mystery-seeds: you know when they grow). No Habanaro this year - next year they get grown deliberately.

Embedding a Flash application (I know) training module into an application.
It has a JavaScript LMS adapter.
Which has a JavaScript SCORM adapter.
I want to use it with my existing Angular v1 SPA. "Too easy," I think, " it's all JavaScript." So I start studying the SCORM API, which it turns out was finalized in 2001, which is when the application adapters were written as well. Nary a callback in sight, and promises weren't even a gleam in the W3C's eye yet.
I slowly realize, to my horror, that it will be impossible to directly implement the SCORM API directly in my SPA code. Even though they're all written in the same language, they simply will not talk to one another. I need to create...an adapter.
So we have a Flash app, with a JS adapter, with a JS adapter, with a JS adapter, with a JS engine, which talks to my C# back end, with a SQL back end, and whatever meta-language reality is written in. I skipped a few, I know.
I plan to be hung over tomorrow.

Nuh sod Flash. All you need to do is to convince them they only need a command-line based training interface.

I have been an avid user of Code Project for a looong time, I can't even remember the first time I was on the site learning how to code.
But anyway I would like to know who writes those funny taglines in the newsletter? Here is an example of an extremely funny one:
Quote: Researchers create safer lithium-ion batteries that harden on impact
Explosive, and now with shrapnel!
Who comes up with this stuff cause it's hilarious 😂 
"Dreams really do come true."

I think it is Kent himself. And there has been some monokinis involved at some point, but that might be Sean.

Well thank you Kent, for providing me with much needed comic relief. It is very appreciated

Like you, I appreciate the snarkastic taglines in the Daily Newsletter/Insider News. It's a great way to start the morning. Keep up the good work Kent and Sean! Your wit does not go unnoticed!

My favorite feature on CP is the Insider by Kent. It keeps me coming back every day.

Keep em comin buddy, I stay current thanks to those newsletters. And entertained thanks to the taglines

It's the right type of humor for otherwise terribly uninspired article titles. It takes real talent to be this consistent. I, for one, really appreciate it, and I'm generally not the type who praises others just because.
Those tidbits make me look forward to the newsletter every day, and that's saying a lot.

+ for the link.
I also found an excuse to send it to someone: The "Last Visual Foxpro Developer", which, by the way, would make a good title for an historical drama, Discovery Channel series, or featurette on Sesame Street.
