I've been of the opinion for the last 5 years at least, that if Meta and all of it's associated products and platforms suddenly disappear from existence, nothing of actual value will be lost. There are better competitors for every

4 years of experience in ruby on rails. Value for years down the line? Where were you for those years of working on a single project/product that will benefit from that? Tech stack doesn't matter? IT does matter! The tech stack sh

Good luck. I personally dislike MassTransit as it's way too opinionated for what it does. I use whatever SDK I need for Azure Service Bus, Kafka etc. and perhaps slightly wrap it for my purposes. As for the other bit around AutoMapper.

Cyril and Methodius didn't create Cyrillic. That's a very common misconception. They created the Glagolitic[1] alphabet which was a precursor script. Cyrillic was developed later by their students and other scholars in the Preslav

Your snark comment is out of place since if you knew something about Cyrillic you'll know that most letters have 1:1 mapping with their Greek counterparts. And since Bulgarian language does use Cyrillic the jump to Greek is quite short

I find these quite interesting and I would be very surprised if these were not the actual common way of writing in cursive learned in school? When I was growing up in Bulgaria my first 7 (I would write the 7 crossed by default for example,

Yes, people think that writing performant software is something that's nice-to-have when in fact if you program with the intention of things being performant then that branches out to better overall design, better user experience, bett

I think that talk might be Jonathan Blow's most important work to date actually. I love The Braid and The Witness, but "Preventing the Collapse of Civilization" managed to articulate what at least me and my circle of devs hav

That's my sentiment as well. It seems you can actually go lower and it's so sad and I think at some point that will turn into dangerous as well... The amount of people that actually care what happens when you run code is miniscule

I don't use the autocomplete option of Copilot as that's too annoying and distracting, BUT I do use the chat from time to time instead of googling for stuff. Once I'm done I hide the panel in Rider/VSCode/Zed/V

Not to be a cynic, but perhaps you have nothing interesting to say? Who gauges what's worthy of being said anyway? At the end of the day at the bottom of the chain it's you (when it comes to your thoughts). Some people don't
