@joaoqalves waiting for your npm package @joaoqalves Please provide both is-even and is-odd packages

Developers in 2025. Enterprise edition.

@joaoqalves @rhoml @edu2b Happy to help with that

@rhoml Writing them or operating builders? @tjamet and @edu2b come to my mind.

. @githubstatus @github it looks like there is a small glitch on the PR pages, is it only from my side? Got this while accessing github.com/kubernetes/kub…

@joaoqalves I’d guess there’s relationship with how we are trained to learn since we’re born. We’re trained to have the theory and then maybe a bit of practice. We’re trained to have the good training (I.e. diploma) to enter the job market. No good diploma no good job.

Why are some people so obsessed about “courses” and “trainings”? Example “As part of my job, I need to inherit a service written in Kotlin. Do you know any good courses about it?” People get completely stuck with this mindset. Learning how to learn is a key skill.

@srvaroa @joaoqalves Happy to show you what it is In short, this thing is just a thing that runs “all necessary build tools” (go, helm, docker) in the good order One of the goals is to enforce standards. All repos are built the same way (go test && go build) and must have with the same conventions

@joaoqalves @tjamet I understand the problem but IME the moment you need anything that $build_tool doesn’t solve, this is a signal from the universe to stop and simplify

GH actions have silently turned into an operating system for dev infrastructure in many orgs. (Yes; this is a bad thing)

@joaoqalves @srvaroa But never underestimate the power of running locally. If you are able to achieve it in a sensible manner, you pay your debt quickly with short feedback loops.

@joaoqalves @srvaroa Oh this schip-ci thing? Yeah is worked pretty well and got the focus “it must run locally the same way as in CI”, and obviously comes with tests and tradeoffs Biggest downside it has is that it is expensive to maintain 2 environments at once and always consider corner cases.

@joaoqalves There are 2 subsequent things I see here. First, it looks like this work far from revenue streams is highly required. How can we connect those with revenue stream. Second, once you spent some time distanced from stream revenues can you get back like a salmon?

A tragedy of tech companies is that engineers are often drawn to and rewarded for work that is far removed from revenue streams. This creates tiers of teams, and those who initially enter through revenue-focused segments eventually move to less financially connected teams.

@bobjouy Intéressant, comment tu fais la répartition par appareil ? Des sondes individuelles, ou un algo?

Quelques pop-up cards sur le dashboard de la consommation électrique.

TW: Homeassistant, EDF Tempo, consommation électrique. La saison des jours qui ne sont plus 100 % bleus arrive, l'occasion de peaufiner les dashboards Home Assistant cette année. J'ai basculé sur les Bubble-Card, voici quelques exemples.

@clcoding print("Enter a number of lines:") lines = int(input()) for i in range(lines): print(" "*(lines-i-1) + "*"*(2*i+1)) for i in range(lines-1,0,-1): print(" "*(lines-i) + "*"*(2*i-1))

Write Python code for the diamond pattern. Simplest code will get reward. Winner selection will get message personally

@joaoqalves It is also pretty doable to cut cloud costs by a significant chunk. It’s just a matter of business focus. Or you focus on delivering business vale, or you focus on cost optimization. Overall, healthy engineering teams ends up circling between both to get the best compromise.

I’m still pro-public Cloud, in most organizations. But I agree with David that this should make us reflect. Smaller engineering teams have less communication overhead and more incentives for ruthless prioritization.

Sad time for #Interoperability. Following the #FreedomOfSpeech and the #rightToRepair, there should be a freedom of/right to interoperability. arstechnica.com/cars/2023/10/m… *right to repair: ec.europa.eu/commission/pre…

@_yom_ @thalys_fr Je crois que c’est un problème de sharing sur les ppimg

#UX matters in almost everything we do. Here we see once more how true it is with @SNCFConnect. Find a time schedule on Google, click time schedules and then you land on “book a ticket” There are so many reasons why you would like to see time schedules without buying a ticket …

@joaoqalves Not only this, but also consider that now, most phones are water proof (latest iPhones are claimed as IP68)… thanks to the sealing of “tools needed to replace battery”.

The batteries became non-user-replaceable in the quest for slim, yet powerful, phones. Changing a battery costs you 50-100€ in lots of places. It’s basically the price + a small markup for the man hours. Looks like a problem that didn’t need to be solved.

It seems that the EU is mandating user-replaceable batteries in phones, starting in 2027. While this comes from a good place, I wonder about second order effects.

@egarciacastello Yep, you’ll always pay more taxes than they refund… Bit in this case it’s likely for the refund to actually cost you money 😧

Just received a great news! My local (Spanish) tax agency wants to refund me!

That's interesting! Not a .gob.es domain? Smells like 🪝🐟

Sounds like phishing... Where is this short URL going to? Let's take a look without a browser and limit leaks
