@ChShersh UNIX philosophy!

Software Engineers who made grep, cat, cut, find, ls, less, and sed really cooked here. 50 years later and it’s still bread and butter of data analysis. And it still works better than most of bloated alternatives.

What a gorgeous machine. Back when computers weren't afraid of showing some color. Red escape, blue return, green shifts. Love it.

Did everyone start their Linux journey with Ubuntu?

Four things that actually move the needle when you work for yourself: 1. Talking to customers 2. Creating helpful content 3. Shipping something people can buy 4. Saying no to basically everything else That's the 20% of stuff that matters.

How does the Rule of Clarity from The Art of UNIX Programming by Eric S. Raymond, apply to Go, particularly in the context of writing tests? I have included numerous examples in the book I just launched. #Go #Golang #Testing #SoftwareDesign store.jarosz.dev/b/gotestingmis…

Software Engineers are not paid for writing code. They’re paid for solving problems. The faster you accept this, the better your life and career will be.

Software getting worse with each iteration without anyone noticing in the process is just a modern version of a boiling frog tale

The foundations of Continuous Delivery aren't pipelines... • Fast, reliable tests • Clean, modular design • Version control everywhere • Frequent, small changes • Automation you trust Without these, You're not doing CD.

@dhh @monomyth So, like in Warsaw

@monomyth That's the mirror of this. Americans often suspect public transit all over the world is like in the US. But it's not. The Copenhagen Metro is a civilized wonder. Japan's too.

When I first arrived in Chicago twenty years ago, I fully intended to be able to use the bus, like I was used to in Copenhagen. People I knew looked at me like I was as insane. Hard for Europeans to understand the things we take for granted but that can easily be lost.

After 16 years of programming, the amount of working code I wrote that I don’t understand Is horrifying.

"Sitting is the new smoking." If you sit more than 6 hours a day, you're killing your body and destroying your health. Here are 4 ways you can adjust your desk set up to reverse the damages of sitting:

laugh now, cry later.

Software engineering isn’t being replaced, the job is turning into something where you delete things generated by AI.

Don’t compromise your health. Everything else is much easier to fix 😉

Just two years ago, the industry was throwing tens of millions of dollars to improve the latency by 2 milliseconds in some user facing hot critical paths. As of today, we are taking a dependency on the entire world and models that spit out a 5 tokens per second.
