Sitting is killing workers & developers! Sitting is being called "the new cancer" and "the smoking of our generation"

I recently got my hands on "The Level" by Fluidstance and it made me put together this review video that I've been wanting to do for a long time - concerning standing desks, developer health, balance boards and fluid movement throughout the day.

I'll do a review on the Fluidstance balance board for stand up desks. Standing desks are AWESOME. After using my standing desk for 6 months now, I will never go back. The only thing you find when using a standing desk is that your feet get fatigued and you can't stand all day. That's where the Fluidstance balance board comes in to play. It gives you an excellent range of motion.

As for standing desks, there's a great Ikea standing desk for $400, and relaxtheback.com also has a selection of desks ranging from several hundred to several thousand dollars.

$Modular Javascript - Prototypal Pattern vs Classical OOP in JS While many JS devs still use classical OOP, many have switched to the prototypal pattern for Module Inheritance and Instantiation. Heres the prototypal pattern for JS and why some devs find it simpler to use. View Classical Inheritance here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWOXYDBbz0g View the whole modular JS playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoYCgNOIyGABs-wDaaxChu82q_xQgUb4f SOURCE CODE HERE: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/gaggvG?editors=001 Basically, when coding JS OOP with the prototypal pattern, everything is an object. You start with an object literal and, then, to inherit from it, you use Object.create(someModule) to create a child that inherits from it. var parent = {some: method}; var child = Object.create(parent); //now add new methods to the child child.newMethod = someMethod; So theres really no difference between inheritance and instantiation in the prototypal method. To create multiple children, simply: var child1 = Object.create(parent); var child2 = Object.create(parent); And there you have it! Also see the source javascript code on how to include a create method so creating is a little more seamless. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Also watch: Responsive Design Tutorial - Tips for making web sites look great on any device https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgOO9YUFlGI -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-$
