Thinking about the "Microverse Battery" episode of Rick and Morty this weekend. Rick creates a universe where the inhabitants (independent agents) generate power for his car. They, in turn, create a Miniverse, who then…

I realized, I enjoy diving into existing code, understand it and just fix bugs. I was thinking, is there a company with a backlog of bugs that is looking for a debugger. Basically, I come to work, fix bugs all day.…

Ever since I started in the industry people would long for the good old days of: Delphi, Visual Basic, Windows Forms, Flash Technology that were taken for granted but are now appreciated: PHP, Java, Static Typing, What…

The more I use AI chatbots, the more I find similarities with a CLI tool, it simply provides a higher dimension of output( n+1) Am i right?

I have come to realize we live in a world of euphemisms, of keeping appearances. What are some things people say that usually mean something else?

One 1 hand we have "AI", promising chatbots that automate trival tasks, to the industry going back to old boring frameworks. What are some tech society predictions you have?

It just occured to me that it's a valid way to get instant feedback from users. Like a TV station making a live broadcast.

I always like these type of questions because we get so much: impractical advice from dev due to changing times, hyperbolic exaggeration or plain ignorance What popular tech advice you wish you didn't follow?

What are the easiest to deploy frameworks in 2022? We talk about easy during development. What about during deployment. Which stack is easiest to get running in less than a day ?

Do you have a service that exists that allows a user to simply upload code to a server. As long a configuration file is present, the service will know what to do .

One day you woke up and made a sudden small realization that changed the way to see yourself, society & life in general.

Corollary : - Can apps with full access to microphone, camera background activate it? Even for 5 seconds at a time. I'm talking about apps like: TkTok, IG and snap. Thanks

Imagine a platform where you get a stream of Micro development tasks. Like: - Fix server log : $30 - Fix this bug: $15 - Convert css files to scss: $17 - Write these tests: 50$ Once finished, you'd get another task. No…

Hello guys, In college, I put my classes in 3 categories. The Naturals: Topics I could do in my sleep: GUI classes, Programming Classes. The conceptuals: Topics I understood the concept of: Database, Physics, Computer…

I want to start a project, with no concern for design patterns, clean code, separation of concerns. I want to write the most spaghetti, working, hacky code that works. C#, Java, Php, JS or python. What tips do you have?…

I don't have 25 years of experience in the industry. So I don't have a lot of advice to give but I can share something with the community. Here are biggest delusions I overcame, throughout my 7 year career. 1. Shared…

What’s is and old boring tech stack that’s great for a solo dev. The tech needs to be at least 5 years old.

As a company gets older it seems like politics are inevitable, no matter how hard or well you work. In your experience, how can you smell the B.S from a mile away? How do you deal with it? Thank you
