A Lover of Delphic Wisdom
Posts about Delphi
As always, I’m very grateful to all of you who buy my books. Thank you. But here’s something interesting about my books: Coding in Delphi sells more than More Coding in Delphi and Dependency Injection in Delphi. That means that there are many of you out there who have bought one of my books, but…
Okay, so I have successfully migrated the content from nickhodges.com over to this blog. As a result, I’m going to be altering what is on nickhodges.com, making it a bit more of a personal site advertising my wares, projects, interests, and what-not. In fact, I’m going to be doing that today — so this isn’t…

We are looking for developers — Delphi developers specifically, but we are mostly interested in smart people that know what they are doing when developing high-quality software. We love Delphi and C#, but in the end, those are just languages…
Hey, I have a question for you fine people. What should I do with this?

Okay, for all you non-cool kids, “Dapp” is the short form of “Decentralized Application”. I’m told that it is pronounced “Dap” and not “Dee-app”. I wrote about dapps a bit in my last blog post. After posting, I decided I wanted to find a dapp to try out. I searched around a bit and found…
