@1337hero funny enough, your incorrect grammar is actually what you'll do. you'll ship fast THEN waste time doing type gymnastics because you have to refactor your broken app ;)

If you choose JavaScript over TypeScript, I'll just assume you're lazy.

Every PM should be using Claude Code. So I built a HUGE course for you to learn Claude Code... IN Claude Code! 🔹 Complete guide 🔹 Make PRDs, analyze data, create decks Soon, I'll sell it for $149. For the next 24h: FREE! Follow + RT + comment "CC" & I'll DM it.

So my wife recently started going to my local gym's spin classes -- but there's a problem: The classes get booked up quick and there's limited bikes. These other women are super fast at getting their reservation in! But you know what they're not faster than? A GitHub action using Laravel Dusk that auto-reserves the latest seat as soon as it becomes available

@michalmalewicz The comments here are so funny 😏

Cooked some food for thought.

@ChadCarleton @ThugDebugger This is great. Love to see someone who actually works with migrant worker weight in on the subject. As Americans, we have become entitled. It’s a festering wound.

I have 200 employees, now 60%+ migrants, 1st or 2nd generation. I’m in Missouri (Hawley country). Let me tell you about the migrant workforce.

Santa’s received over 2,000 letters in the past 2 days, and a few folks mentioned they couldn’t chat to him in their own language. This made me sad, so I fixed it. Multilingual Santa now speaks 31 languages 🎅🏼 talktosanta.io

THINGS I'M NO LONGER INTERESTED IN: • Driving at night • Leaving my house at night • Driving in the winter • Leaving the house in winter • Driving • Leaving the house

@obsdmd has become my rubber ducky. I take notes about everything I am doing and when a I find a bug, write out exactly what is happening. It has helped me to clarify my spaghetti brain thoughts and get through issues so much faster. 💜

Your best employees are built, not bought.

6 API Architecture Styles You Should Know. API architectural styles determine how applications communicate. The choice of an API architecture can have significant implications on the efficiency, flexibility, and robustness of an application. So it is very important to choose based on your application's requirements, not just what is often used. Let’s examine some prominent styles: REST A cornerstone in web services, REST leverages HTTP methods for streamlined operations and a consistent interface. Its stateless nature ensures scalability, while URI-based resource identification provides structure. REST's strength lies in its simplicity, enabling scalable and maintainable systems. Learn more about REST here: drp.li/what-is-a-rest… GraphQL Whilst REST uses multiple endpoints for each resource and necessitates multiple requests to obtain interconnected data; GraphQL uses a single endpoint, allowing users to specify exact data needs, and delivers the requested data in a single query. This approach reduces over-fetching, improving both performance and user experience. Learn more about GraphQL here: drp.li/graphql-how-do… SOAP Once dominant, SOAP remains vital in enterprises for its security and transactional robustness. It’s XML-based, versatile across various transport protocols, and includes WS-Security for comprehensive message security. Learn more about SOAP here: drp.li/soap-how-does-… gRPC gRPC is efficient in distributed systems, offering bidirectional streaming and multiplexing. Its use of Protocol Buffers ensures efficient serialization and is suitable for a variety of programming languages and use cases across different domains. Learn more about gRPC here: drp.li/what-is-grpc-z… WebSockets For applications demanding real-time communication, WebSockets provide a full-duplex communication channel over a single, long-lived connection. It's popular for applications requiring low latency and continuous data exchange. Learn more about WebSockets here: drp.li/webhooks-and-w… MQTT MQTT is a lightweight messaging protocol optimized for high-latency or unreliable networks. Its pub/sub model ensures efficient data dissemination among a vast array of devices, making it a go-to choice for IoT applications. Learn more about MQTT here: drp.li/automation-wit… API architectural styles are more than just communication protocols; they are strategic choices that influence the very fabric of application interactions. There is no best architectural style. Each offers unique benefits, shaping the functionality and interaction of applications. It's about making the right choice(s) based on your application's requirements. If you want to learn more about API development, the 2024 State of the API Report has just been released.

@techgirl1908 @thegoodoommen Ah. How sad 😢

@itsBKokay @thegoodoommen funding dried up

Why don't you attend meetups anymore?

@thegoodoommen @techgirl1908 Yea, why is that? It seems like they all shut their doors this year.

@techgirl1908 All the organizations that supported women in technology are gone add those are the only meetups I used to go to.

TIL that ‘I_AM_A_TEAPOT’ is a real HTTP status code ☺️ 418 I’m a teapot Any attempt to brew coffee with a teapot should result in the error code “418 I’m a teapot”. The resulting entity body MAY be short and stout. 😂😂😂 #100Devs

It's true.

How do we design secure and safe APIs? The rise in API-related security breaches highlights the necessity for robust API security. Let's look at 12 essential tips for improving API security: 🔹 HTTPS Enforcing HTTPS for all API connections is a critical step in securing sensitive data since it ensures data encryption in transit, preventing attacks and interceptions. 🔹 Rate limiting and throttling Throttling and rate limiting are vital for reducing API abuse and protecting against DDoS attacks as they manage request rates, which keeps our API available for legitimate users. 🔹 Authentication Authentication is another must-have. Leverage strong authentication mechanisms, such as OAuth, to verify user or system identities. Learn more about API authentication here: drp.li/api-authentica… 🔹 Authorization After authentication comes authorization. Follow the least privilege principle to ensure users access only role-relevant data and actions, reducing unauthorized access risks. 🔹 Input validation Validating API inputs is crucial to safeguard against vulnerabilities like SQL injection and XSS. Whitelisting can also be useful here to ensure only valid data is processed. 🔹 API gateway Deploy an API Gateway as a security layer, managing authentication, monitoring traffic, and enforcing policies like rate limits. 🔹 Regular security audits Regular security audits and penetration testing are advisable to identify and fix vulnerabilities, preventing exploitation and maintaining API security. 🔹Dependency management Regularly updating software dependencies is important to mitigate risks from vulnerabilities in external libraries. 🔹 Logging and monitoring Investing in comprehensive logging and real-time monitoring is vital for early detection of suspicious activities, enabling swift incident response to mitigate security breaches. 🔹API versioning To manage changes and updates securely, utilize proper API versioning, which prevents compatibility and security issues. Learn more about API versioning here: drp.li/api-versioning… 🔹Data encryption at rest Encrypting sensitive data at rest is crucial to prevent unauthorized access and comply with data protection regulations. API security isn’t a nice to have; it’s a must. Following the techniques and best practices I’ve shared above will take you a long way, they are the foundations of building safe and secure APIs. A great way to automate checking the health, security, and performance of your APIs is Postman Monitors. You can learn more about it here: drp.li/postman-monito…

@szewailaw_lis Awesome! The UI looks great

Today, I coded a basic MP3 player using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I haven't finished the whole project yet, but I can hear the music playing!🎶 I'm amazed by the magic of coding once again. Hoping to complete it tomorrow! #freecodecamp #100DaysOfCode
