I have a stack of like 30 notecards for every project. It's a bit harder to search through than a design doc or something but a lot easier to rearrange. It works better for me somehow.
[QUOTE=barttool;49207384][...] A huge chunk of the work has been proofing it against SQL injections and such. I understand why security breaches are so commonplace nowadays.[/QUOTE]
Normally you'd use a third-party library that does this automatically (and is much easier to use correctly than plain SQL).
There are also usually compiled queries, which are both faster and immune to injections.
For the user entry into the website there are also frameworks that make it easy to parse and validate data securely.
If you use modern efficient programming practices, SQL injections and most other "common" mistakes are highly unlikely to appear in the software.

[QUOTE=Karmah;49207716][...]
Also, since I'm always thinking up things that I need to do, I've been wondering if there is a better way of keeping track of things that need to get done.
Do you guys know of or use any [I]"To Do"[/I] systems or something along those lines?
I'm not a fan of keeping stickynotes everywhere listing things because sometimes priorities shift and other things need to go on the backburner.[/QUOTE]
I use [URL="https://keep.google.com"]Google Keep[/URL]. It's sticky notes, but it's an infinite wall to stick them on so you don't run out of space. You can also tag them. (There's an archive you can use to temporarily hide some. I only put things I've done there instead of deleting them though.)
For things that I find online, I use private [URL="https://www.pinterest.com/"]Pinterest[/URL] boards since those are easier to manage and a bit more powerful once you're jutting down more than a few lines of text.
Sometimes I just send an email to myself, but mostly if I'm not at my own computers or don't have my passwords on hand.
There's also that project notes app Garry uses, but I don't remember the name because it's not that useful to me.

Trello ([url]https://trello.com/[/url]) is a really great way of organising projects/ideas too, especially teams.

I use Wunderlist. It's synchronised across devices and isn't full of needless features.

Thank you very much! This is pretty much exactly what I needed.
Google Keep, Evernote or OneNote for simple note keeping.
Trello if you need more organization or need for future team members.
I don't think there are many note taking apps these days that don't sync to something. And if one doesn't, save to dropbox
I made a Controller/Pawn system in Unity, inspired by Unreal.
[vid]http://zguyserver.nu/videos/2015-11-29_06-23-18.mp4[/vid]
There's two PlayerControllers in that scene, one controlled with WASD+E, the other controller with Arrows+Return.
The currently controlled pawn is tinted with the controller color (red and green, in this case).
This was a fun experiment, and the code ended up fairly clean.
Entering a car is pretty much
[code]
controller.Possess(car);
[/code]
and exiting again is
[code]
controller.Possess(driver);
[/code]
Plus some code for moving the sprite inside the car.
Spent the last couple of days messing around with the un-official api wrappers for Discord, so made little bot called Disco in python with plugin support.

Been working on this again. Entities can now have a material (think of it like a $surfaceprop) which controls footstep sounds, friction, and so forth. Also, managed to get pseudo-Half Life water.

Google Keep, Evernote and OneNote are all bloated crap. Try the new Dropbox Paper, it's seriously good.

ICQ and AIM both use OSCAR, but they're probably still not 100% compatible unless you can use them interchangeably.

One compiler error in F# is equal to 10 compiler errors in C#. It's just so damn hard to figure out, what you just fucked up.
Nonetheless, no compiler error = stuff usually works in first try.
