  6. Routine can be the arch-enemy of awareness…

    Sometimes, we get into such a routine that we don't have a clear picture of our current reality.

    This is why building awareness must be deliberate, especially if you have goals you want to achieve or changes you want to make.

    👉 It all starts with seeing your clear reality.

  7. Many software developers beat themselves up based on thoughts that enter their head…

    Sometimes, it’s because they think the thoughts say something about them or define them in some way…

    Sometimes, it’s because they believe them to be true (often when they aren’t)

    Affirmation 👉 “I am NOT my thoughts."

    This affirmation is a reminder that thoughts are often thrown at you.

  8. Blog - Shared Postgres Test Container with Expecto in FSharp

    I’m learning FSharp by creating a web application. I’ve cycled through lots of different ways of doing things, libraries, etc. Today I finally got my integration tests to use a single docker test contaner with the Expecto test framework. I couldn’t find a good example online of how to do it, so I’m sharing it here.

  12. Google Cloud’s DORA team released a report on assessing the #ROI of #AI in #SoftwareDevelopment.

    Key points:
    • AI value depends more on org systems than tools alone
    • Introduces a J-curve for value realization
    • Long-term gains require workforce retention + process redesign

  13. Ah, yet another #GitHub project promising to revolutionize the world by... generating LLVM IR without malloc. 🚀 Because who needs memory management anyway? 😂 It's like building a spaceship out of cardboard and claiming you've solved interstellar travel. 🌌

  14. "The developers I talked to agreed that LLMs will stick around and play a role in programming in the future in some fashion, but worried about how the industry will adapt to executives’ current obsession with the technology, especially when it comes to fostering future generations of developers.

    “Older programmers will be fine if there are any jobs left in a few years, but I worry for people early in their careers,” the UX designer told me. “We are hiring junior programmers who rely on AI to complete the simplest tasks. They don't have the knowledge or experience to know when AI output is error-laden or inefficient.”

    “I wish I had a crystal ball for this one, but my gut feeling is that this method of building software will be unsustainable either economically or in terms of tech debt,” the software engineer at the FAANG company said. “There's a pretty clear split on my team between people who love AI coding and those who just do it because it's what the company wants, and generally speaking I find that the people who are still [technically focused individual contributors] with their nose in code all the time are less likely to be big AI boosters. I think the tech and its outputs start to really break down the more you question them and those who are doing that day in and day out tend to have a worse opinion of the tech.”

    “I think there will be a ‘reckoning’ or ‘awakening’ from the industry notion that now everyone can code and that vibe coding is viable for a real production app and software companies are dead,” the developer in fintech said. “I think we will grow to find the patterns and industry best practices that will balance the negatives of LLM development (hallucination, unstructured code) with better techniques to verify the output's correctness at scale, and the hype and techno optimism of AI will get to a saner middle ground.”"

  20. Meet #Cangjie (CJ) - a new application development language.

    Positioned as a counterpart to Java, Kotlin, and Swift, CJ isn't just about safety & speed. It features:
    🔹 Algebraic Data Types (ADTs)
    🔹 Effect Handlers

    CJ is designed for high-performance, general-purpose apps.

    > "I just don’t think that kidding ourselves that the only problem with software is Electron and it all will be butterflies and unicorns once we rewrite Slack in SwiftUI is not productive. The real problem is a lack of care. And the slop; you can build it with any stack."

  23. In this #InfoQ #podcast, Adam Bien highlights the importance of consistently using standards - whether in Java or established patterns.

    He explains how this approach helped future-proof the systems he built, making them adaptable for both the cloud era & the AI-native era.

    But to be honest, I don’t use it, and I’m not a fan at all…

    I’m talking about the Feedback Sandwich…

    🥪 Feedback Sandwich 🥪
    In a nutshell - you give negative/constructive feedback sandwiched between positive feedback.

  25. Kotlin Kandy: Transform Map Keys Or Values With mapKeys And mapValues
    A blog by @mrhaki

    Sometimes you want to transform only the keys in a Map, or only transform the values. Kotlin has two useful methods to achieve this: mapKeys and mapValues. You can use mapKeys to transform the keys of the map while keeping the values the same. With mapValues you can transform the values of the map while keeping the keys the same. Both...
