    This is great. It's nice to see an article from someone who doesn't "do" TDD, but also isn't ranting about how tests are useless. I personally use and prefer (test-first) TDD but s…

    If you just handle the client side part, you don't really need to learn any of it. If you do need to get into the server-side, Elixir/Phoenix seems like a great fit if you are doin…

    I've actually found myself moving in the opposite direction of integrating the social media stuffs. Now I visit the sites if I want to check up on things or post something. Require…
