While perusing the Tumult Forums, someone was having trouble with animated buttons. The idea was to animate the active button, then return to the previous state when not active. Hype can do that! To show how that’s done, I started working on another free Hype template. The end result is a project that grew larger than expected. If you’re looking for a way to create quizzes, the “United States Capitals Quiz” template could be a great starting point. It tackles complex issues, such as working with arrays and randomizing the display of that data.

This is why I should stay out of politics. After a fairly good Republican convention, and the chaos from the Democratic convention, Donald Trump was in great shape. All he had to do was stay on message. Just stay focused. Instead, he had a bad week. He was down in the polls. Maybe the press was showing signs of bias, as they were attacking him non-stop. Maybe the polls were a bit slanted, as certain demographics were being favored more than others. Benefit of the doubt wanes after another blunder from Trump.
If you’re an avid follower of this website, it’s probably not too hard to guess which way I lean politically. I’m in NYC – Staten Island to be precise. It’s like Trump-land over here. I see plenty of Trump signs on the island. What people once viewed as a joke is now reaching inevitability. Donald Trump could be the 45th president of the United States. So, what does that mean for technology? Specifically, what does that mean for Net Neutrality?
At the local mall, there’s a kiosk for “As Seen on TV” items. In a bright yellow and triangular shaped package stood the Wallet Ninja. It reminds me of an old photography saying. “The best camera is the one that you have with you.” It’s the same with tools. My mobile phone has replaced so many tools. It’s a camera, but it’s also a flashlight, GPS, compass, music player and more. What if the Wallet Ninja (a credit card shaped multitool) worked the same way? Since it was only $10, I thought that it would be cool to try it.
