Using sketch / photoshop these days gives you "Copy CSS Attributes" functionality for most of the elements, which is basically 50% of your CSS, the rest is layouts ( super easy these days with flex box / grid ), media qu

I used goss for testing ansible roles. It is simple enough to put in my CI and to configure. Having a .yaml syntax similar to Ansible makes it the appropriate choice for the task.

It's a lot of fun, when someone tries to write a note on my IDE ( WebStorm ) where I'm using vim mode. Most of them give up and open Notes app. Joke aside. I don't think that pleasing other potential users of your computer sh

In my last project, we had a VPN ( tinc ) between the mongo cluster and the micro services. Tincd was installed on each virtual server and allowed a secure and unified way for communication. For example Redis, Mongo, Logstash, etc... all ha

On top of that DST is one of the nastiest things when dealing with time / date in CS. I’m scared as well that there will be another edge case when the DST is being demolished from EU as the time calculation in the past and the future w

So you invalidate all tokens? Or it is per user ID salt. If the latter where do you keep the salts and why not simply having a server side session ID, instead of the salt

Refreshing a specific token can not be blocked on the server side. If you do, it’s already stateful.

Biggest complaints about JWT is the inability to sign out a user. You can, yes, delete the cookie on the client side, but if the JWT is stolen you can’t be sure that it won’t be used again ( invalidate ). Same happens on reset password, whe

There is currently a huge problem with the Bulgarian Electronic Trade Register [0]. The register stopped working two weeks ago and is still not online [1]. It holds all company ownership data and a lot more. Right now there is no way to reg

Using perl exclusively for web development, I was quite lucky when I switched to the very immature ( back then ) NodeJS. I remember how happy I was and how fast I was able to run and develop anything ( compared to Catalyst ). Still, being a

Wow that's terrible. Would be really sad. Even on my non-retina MacBook's display it reduces drastically the readability.

I've never learned any programming language / framework with a step-by-step component learning. I usually grab a simple task ( make a todo app, make a hello world, etc. ) and do it. Funny enough I've worked with and know almo

I have a law degree, but I work as a full-stack developer. The shared logical thinking between law and programming is astonishing. Nevertheless I transitioned from law to working in IT, because of the salary / career options ( being a

I did that mistake with `sort`. There was a nasty bug that I tried to fix, when I realised that `sort` actually mutates the array and returns it as well. That was pretty good lesson to learn.

Unfortunately the smartest minds in CS are exactly suggesting “don’t reinvent the wheel”. Maybe your comment is quite relevant for GitLab, because of their admirable publicity on their outages and code base, but I’m quite sure that even you

Typical Berlin startups as of 2018 usually look for importing developers from other countries with relocation help. This, IMHO, is already the beginning of the salary increase, which is inevitable. Unfortunately the progressive taxation [1]

I learned a lot about how you can fail to become rich by working, after I did some digging into taxation in Germany [1]. The outcome is that you should not expect that working more will equal to becoming rich. 1 : http://www.drin

Are grids still a thing? I hardly had to use any for the last 2-3 years. I just have a `display: flex` and control the direction with media queries. Seems much more easy than learning a grid css file

Last time I checked the bindings of QT[1] for NodeJS were not updated since 6 years. I think they are still unmaintained and also are lacking the community around it. I think GitHub embracing Chrome-wrapped-apps was a significant move, sinc

Wow so much hate in this thread. First, the author is not doing this for his CV. Second, the benefits of using electron are enormous for any JS developer and there are a lot. Third, I also hate electron apps and wouldn’t use this app, but I

Electron doesn’t work on iOS or Android, so phone is inaccurate.
