I just found out about Lagom from this blog post and it's exactly what I have been looking for. All other Python options I've seen feel too involved or leak too much into your code…

How do you know what testing/designing practices all "important" software projects use? Do you expect it to be advertised?

A few years back I saw something similar where subreddits were presented like a tree, based on topics (and popularity, I think). Made it easy to drill down to interesting niche sub…

You are skipping a step there - it's red -> green -> refactor As for "tactical programming instead of strategic design" - that's entirely up to the developer and how they approach …

People in general are bad in dealing with nuance. And there is enough of it in these type of books for some to overheat.

It's not a huge investment to learn. At the same time it's very valuable. I would prepare for CKAD first and do CKA only if relevant.

The main reason for not working NGINX examples is because there are two NGINX ingress controllers - one by NGINX and one maintained by k8s. Real fun if one does not know this upfro…

You don't need precise specs to practice TDD. If you have idea of the code you need to write, you can write the test for it beforehand - no matter how often someone might change th…

If no one knows whether the code is correct a generated test could easily do more harm than good. If no one is able/willing to refactor the code into understandable and testable bi…

> The domain is fintech What you describe is the opposite of what I expect from (modern) fintech. * no tests * god method with no proper documentation/requirements * no one actuall…

Every year I go to the pharmacy and buy a flu vaccine. I can then get the shot in a way convenient for me.

Do you think there's any relation between the naming of whitelist/blacklist and skin color? I certainly don't. Colors and their associations exist beyond racial identity. Also, wha…

I find it bizarre how many arguments on the topic are just of the type "microservices are the cure" / "microservices are cancer" - no reflection on specific domains and context. It…

I'm not a huge fan of putting client-side rendering on everything, but I still feel it's unfair and shallow to put so much blame on it. For an app getting more than a couple page v…

it does, when you take into account the turnover of existing accurate test methods and their accessibility

Weird. I also use flake8 and the only mismatch between the two has been the default line length of black, which I changed to 79. All is good now.

I have hated every single formatter I've tried, other than Black. It seems to be the only one that's not just trying to put style into PEP8 compliance, but also keep it readable an…

Up until recently I couldn't actually do much with google maps on my phone because I have restricted it from using microphone. An error would pop up on every simple address lookup
