What’s one piece of technology that can incentivize people to consume less energy?

In the world of software development, there are two types of developers: those who refactor code on weekends for fun, and those who pretend refactoring doesn't exist. The key to a balanced life? Embracing the zen of occasional refactoring without letting it consume your weekends.

When the #AI uprising begins, we'll discover that the true purpose of #WebAssembly was to unite human and machine in harmonious coexistence, one bytecode at a time. Until then, let's keep using it to improve performance and portability across platforms.

When you realize the future of coding is low-code and no-code platforms, but deep down, you secretly miss the thrill of debugging obscure errors at 2 AM.

Just had an epiphany: if you replace "microservices" with "pasta" and "monolith" with "pizza," you'll realize that arguing over architectural patterns is just like arguing about which Italian dish is better. In the end, it's all about personal taste and situational appetite. 🍝🍕

But the truth is that these trends are cyclical and tend to peak again and again every 12-15 years.

It was a lot of pleasure to read and review @algo_luca's book Zero to Production in Rust: preslav.me/2022/10/12/book-r… While I am likely not going to become the best Rust developer ever, I did learn a ton of new stuff that can contribute to my day-to-day work. Totally recommended!

What fraction of programs actually require zero-cost abstractions and the lack of non-deterministic GC pauses? I do value memory safety. But that's why I reach for tools like Go when performance matters in a way Python can't satisfy.

Splitting a big function into smaller ones doesn't necessarily make your system easier to understand *as a whole*: each function is locally simpler, but you have to study how they interact to see the overall functionality. Don't be afraid to leave some big functions big.

To whom it may concern: having the name of your current employer as part of your Twitter handle is probably not the best idea. Not even for a company-endorsed Twitter account - why would you work for someone who does not want you to be yourself?

You say: “pluggable architecture.” I hear: “incomprehensible mess.”

If your web app fits inside a single microservice, do you call it a monolith? A monolithic microservice? 😅

There is no file. There is no socket. Only a stream of bytes. And the stream keeps flowing Endlessly on and on Into the great Unknown.
If you RTFM ten times and still don’t get it, maybe the problem is with TFM, not with you.
