First off, lemme just get this out of the way now. I am a sneakerhead. Not a sneakerhead anyways. I have never waited in line outside of a sneaker store overnight or been to SneakerCon. I have never bought and resold a single pair?-?ever. BUT I can (and do) talk shoes all day.

The ASICS Digital blog was created to share our team's experiences, insights and ideas with you. Kicking things off is our first contributor Len Khudisman, QA Lead.

One of the more critical processes for a software engineering team is the team's git flow. The git flow defines what code goes where, and helps add clarity for how code goes through each step of the release process.

Experiential learning has long been an integral part of the Northeastern experience. The school received a record 51,014 undergraduate applications in 2016, undoubtedly thanks in part to growing acclaim for the co-op program.
