#devstories — Public Fediverse posts

I generally dislike the practice of beginning interface names with "I;" I think that if it's not obvious from the name whether it's a capability (interface) or a kind of thing (superclass, optionally abstract), then I picked a bad name, and I should look for a better one.

However, I once added an interface with nothing but `String getLicenseNumber()`. The thought struck me to name it "IHaveALicense," and for some reason I found that so funny. I did it and never looked back. #DevStories

Todays coding lesson. Remember to run the correct docker container when testing it. Not the one that you named ever so similar that you pulled from your bash history, over, and over, and over. :(

#programming #docker #devstories

First time added A records to a real-world DNS server.

First time added a docker swarm stack with its own services.

First time managed to map the two with a Nginx web server config.

Cool!

And thinking… hey, you are not building a startup?! You want to build a product, an MVP more precisely. Right? You actually want to solve a problem. Not chase money and investment. That is what you want to do. That is the real goal. The startup and money is just a sideeffect of this undertaking. This is the way. Now go build a product to make the world a better place! And aim to grow full bootstrapped! #startup #devslife #devstories

#Docker #gitlab and #dotnet with C# is the most fun stack I worked with. Second one is #golang and third #nodejs. I want to try #swift for #iOS and #Rust for web, #elixir seems insanely hardcore, F# looks like childplay to me when compared to it but it is the dotnet bias. The only thing C# misses is if it could somehow be interpreted just for development, just to save time on testing code ideas, no dotnet watch is not feasible for me sorry :) #happpydev #dev #devux #devstories #csharp

Wow, I spent two hours debugging an issue that turned out to be a missing newline in a ssh private key 🫠
#devstories

I have been joking for a while that I am searching for my next language to add to my resume, and I am strongly leaning towards #Go and #Rust. I have used Go in a few projects, but honestly, I haven't even touched a line of Rust.

That being said, alongside this, I think I am finally going to add #Lua to my arsenal as well. I've been using #Neovim and would love to easily be able to write my own extensions, and I also see that #Redis has support for it.

Earlier today, I wanted to delete all keys in my Redis database with some <key>:<id>. I was a bit lazy and messed around. So I asked #ChatGPT just for a quick #CLI command. Which it basically said wasn't possible.

So I had 1 of 2 options. Write 5 lines of Python just randomly in my existing main file. OR! I see that #RedisInsight supports Lua!

Why do something in 5 minutes in 5 lines if I can automate it in a day by learning an entire new language?🙆‍♂️

There is NOTHING more valuable than having a dev team mate who is patient with you(r stupidity).

I am so grateful to have more than 1 of them. :)

Well shit…spent the whole day refactoring some legacy code (class components to functional, more declarative code, etc…). Even worked late because I was a on hot streak. As I was about to log off I realized that I was working on the wrong fucking component.
