An LLM doesn't improve your code. It amplifies it.
It has no taste of its own, only the momentum of whatever it reads. Point it at clean code, it stays clean. Point it at rot, it compounds the rot.
Good input is still on you.

The pre-commit ecosystem is huge, but discovering good hooks can be surprisingly difficult.
I've started **Awesome Pre-commit Hooks**, a curated list of #precommit and #prek hooks organised by language and framework.
Check it out and help grow it:

The time the x86 emulator team found code so bad they fixed it during emulation

Supporting multiple iOS versions? Create convenience wrappers for newer APIs, then use @ available with deprecated and obsoleted parameters to let the compiler flag dead code when you bump your minimum version. A clean strategy for pruning technical debt.

JWT: Just a #Wobbly Trick! 🤡 It's less about authenticating and more about complicating. But hey, if you love slow, leaky, unmanageable code with a side of developer confusion, #JWT is truly your jam! 🚀🔧

Found a clever little Rust tool for spotting risky code 👀
🦀 **cargo-crap** — Compute the CRAP metric for Rust projects
📉 Combines cyclomatic complexity + test coverage to find high-risk & poorly-tested functions

Rust's compile-time guarantees are deliberately incomplete - the compiler catches most issues, but not all. What's left behind is the question.
At Oxidize 2026, Rolland Dudemaine (TrustInSoft) shares findings from analysing production Rust code: what bugs survive, and when additional tooling is worth it.

🚀 NEW on We ❤️ Open Source 🚀
Vibe coding can accelerate POCs and MVPs, but production systems need viable coding.
Itamar Friedman looks at code integrity: merging review, security, and quality so AI-assisted development stays reliable.

Most devs think backend = APIs.
It’s not.
It’s:
• Efficient request handling
• Clean architecture
• Smart DB design
• Caching strategies
• Security
• Reliability under load
Great backend ≠ just code
It’s systems that don’t break in the real world.
Tools change. Principles don’t.https://jaswalaryan.space/article/backend-development-beyond-apis-complete-guide

🚀 Behold, the latest #GitHub miracle: yet another "beautifully designed" component set! 🌟 Because what the world really needed was more open-source fluff to distract developers from writing actual code. 🤯

#CodeQuality of the lazy developer 🛠️
Updating an educational #Python repo, I looked into what to automate for code quality.
🔮 Spoiler: I landed on uv, ruff, pyright and pre-commit.
In the article: the picks, why, and the make patch that broke on the first try 😄

Ah, another GitHub warrior claiming their latest "OSS Agent" will revolutionize coding with jargon-laden buzzwords 🤖. Apparently, it's so efficient it could probably solve world hunger while improving code quality ⌨️. But hey, remember to toggle your navigation menu for the full enlightenment experience. 🌟

Most developers write code. The best ones write code that nobody has to fix at 2am.
What's the worst "2am call" moment you've had as a developer?
Drop it in the comments — let's collect the horror stories. 👇

🔍 Oh great, another overly ambitious tool claiming to make #Rust code “correct” through a dizzying maze of acronyms and #buzzwords. 🤖 Because obviously what every developer craves is the excitement of reading a tutorial that’s as exciting as watching paint dry! 🎨

For decades we've known that proper code review increases a team's comprehension of a codebase. Fagan showed in 1976 that structured reading was the highest-yield defect removal activity. The increased output of coding agents makes comprehension more of a bottleneck, and raises the stakes for review. #CodeReview #CodeQuality #SoftwareEngineering
