There are other serializers like blueprinter [0]. I haven't used it yet, but it seems like a good (fast) AMS replacement. I also recommend using Oj [1] which is a very fast JSON pa…

I've seen there are plenty of comments that disagree with that statement. I agree, though. I love working remotely. I've been working remotely for a bit less than a year now. I had…

Yea, I know you are right. Still, it sucks that there is mindset like that...

I'm located in EU. I think this is part of the problem. Based on my job search, I've noticed that there is much more (interesting) jobs in USA.

Based on my experience this is very true. It's very annoying when you want to find a job, but you don't want to be a sucker, so you end up looking for a job for a long time. I don'…

I don't know why people make such a big deal of types. They don't add that much time to typing the code. I also have noticed that if you write daily using some code style (for exam…

Recently I've been tinkering with Elixir a lot. That's why I decided to share some small tips for learning Elixir. Hopefully someone will find it useful :)

Never been a CTO, but, don't be afraid to give some of your responsibilities to other people. Not sure how else to describe it, what I mean is just don't expect yourself to do ever…

I don't know much how to help. I'm sorry. I have one idea though. Maybe find a temporary work in some other industry? Something new could spark a new passion? Even a job like a wai…

That's a very valid concern. My personal opinion: Yes, the package system is pretty small. That's why it depends what kind of project you are gonna write and how much time you have…

I thought same in 2018 when I didn't use Phoenix. But after trying out Elixir and Phoenix, damn... Elixir and Phoenix give you so much, nice websockets, concurrency, fucking easy t…

I finished high school not that long time ago... I'm gonna say... Think Lean (startup lean) go to the high school and ask the kids what they want to know and what could make the pr…

Location: Poland, Europe Remote: Yes Willing to relocate: Depends on the city Technologies: Javascript, React, Ruby, Rails, Elixir, Phoenix Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/a…

I'm from Europe, so I will say why I don't want to work in London (and I get a lot of offers from there!) The salaries that are offered are a joke in London. The expenses are so hu…

Hey, the author here :) Retrochat is my first product ever. It solves a problem where teams lose or don't complete their action items from retrospectives. It happens because many e…

I'm gonna say, don't be too hard on yourself. You may expect to be as productive as on your previous job, but there is a big chance that you won't be. It will take some time to adj…

At first, I disagreed, but then I completely agree after thinking about that problem more. The proper mindset comes from the Top. If managers can't guide/lead their devs then they …

I have the same opinion. Building SPA is f* hard and time-consuming. But it depends. If you know how to build SPA fast, then, by all means, go that route. (As a solo dev or small t…

I think it depends on the business you are building and also on yourself. I don't think everyone will be able to build something good without quitting. I also don't think it's not …

Yea, probably a lot of people would ... for that kind of money. I guess it really depends on the person. Some crave money even if they are super rich. Some just want to have a happ…

TL;DR OP liked his job, but his motivation was decreasing. Could be possible earning much more in the next few years. Gonna build his own things from now on. Long story short money…

A very touching story. Yet somehow I feel happy for him, that he had found his friends online. I used to play a lot of MMO games when I was a teenager, not WoW exactly. I wish more…

I don't understand that surprise. It's their business model, what do you expect? They need to earn money, right? If you don't like them, stop using them.
