Is this year of the Linux yet?
sharas-··on Keep Android Open
Just installed Lineage OS 23 (androind 16) on my Motorola g84. Works like a charm. Banking apps work. Do I need to say fuck google? Like it's not obvious?
sharas-··on Why I'm No Longer Talking to Architects About Microservices
"microservices" is not an architectural question. It's a "recommended practices" question.
sharas-··on Clean Code vs. A Philosophy Of Software Design
Whoes uncle is he anyways?
sharas-··on How I ship projects at big tech companies
In corporations, sure, nobody is concerned about the end goal. That is by design.

Design by managers who simplistify everything into a manufacturing process in their "factory"

Those same simplistifiers managers would love "facilitators" who are now concerned with a function of shipping in their "factory".

sharas-··on Goodbye from a Linux Community Volunteer
alas

Kent said some things, drew some kumbaja diagrams...
sharas-··on Bun is much faster than Node.js 22 at decoding Base64 but both rely on same lib
The efficient version of Node is called Deno. Bun is copying Deno.

bun is coppying what Deno already did, and then hipes it, without mentioning Deno.

This should have been a tweet. Buy his consulting services.
sharas-··on Notes from an Interviewer
SOLID, TDD, etc is a noise from simpleton uncle. I tried hard to see if he has anything of value to say. He doesn't really. That doesn't stop him from selling simplistic slogans to get attention.
sharas-··on Notes from an Interviewer
On interviewers who are asking about "recommended practices", SOLID, etc...:

Had an interview while back with a hiring manager for "Agile Coach" position. - He couldn't answer basic questions about what goal he wants to achieve. That was a weird question for him. - He was grilling me on SAFE processes.

This is a "normal" case.

sharas-··on A 2024 plea for lean software
"Writing has been called the process by which you find out you don’t know what you are talking about.

Actually doing stuff, meanwhile, is the process by which you find out you also did not know what you were writing about."

sharas-··on Sam Altman, Greg Brockman and others to join Microsoft
Turns out not everybody was sold-out at OpenAI. Good riddance, that Altman weasel was just that, a sellout.
sharas-··on Push ifs up and fors down
In other words: write small reusable functions. And an orchestrator "script" function to glue them all together. The orchesrator has all the "ifs" what is domain/application specific.
sharas-··on Google has sent internet into 'spiral of decline', claims DeepMind co-founder
did you also get a popup suggesting you login with google just after this article loaded?
sharas-··on Organization probably doesn't want to improve things
this examines corporate characters: https://bitslap.it/blog/posts/playground-it.html
sharas-··on I'm fed up with it, so I'm writing a browser
Corporations are not hiring devs... Devs have plenty of time... Devs fuck corps by redoing things right... The shortsightedness of suits is as always staggering.
sharas-··on Being a bash developer in the 21st century (2021)

sharas-··on The Tyranny of the Marginal User
So the fault is with zombie Marl? As any zombie marketer would say: "we are just giving them what they want". Something fundamentally is amiss in this posts reasoning.

Truly, we are made in the image of god.
