Obvious to anyone who's had to look after physical desktops and servers, but probably not to end users. Please be patient with your local IT team as this will take time to sort out.


To all my IT colleagues today: may the odds be ever in your favour! #Azure #Crowdstrike


Hahaha!

Join me at DTX Manchester, 22-23 May. It’s the North’s biggest enterprise IT and technology event, sharing the latest developments in cloud, infrastructure, cyber security, data, AI, DevOps and unified communications. Who else is going? #DTXM24 invt.io/1txb4youv0z

K8s is an option for workloads that fit it. That’s not all workloads; that’s probably not all of YOUR workloads. Learning and respecting that boundary is way more valuable than performing an acrobatic display to fit all workloads on your platform of choice.

I see a lot of remote roles for senior developers. But not that many for mid and juniors. Especially juniors. Is there a reason?

Sadly, a common microservices anti-pattern is (a) to have too many services and (b) test those services together. This approach defeats the purpose of using the microservice architecture to accelerate software delivery.

I don't think people realize how cruel it is to tell people to "learn to code". You are basically saying that if you want a comfortable life you have to start saying things like "I think a regex will work here..." Is that the kind of world you want to live in?

Say it with me "CosmosDB is not SQL Server" Devs: "Cosmos is way more expensive than SQL Server" Me: "You used it like SQL Server didn't you..." Seriously, it might have a SQL API, but it's not a Relational DB, stop using it like one.

Why would I pay GitHub $100/year for an AI to tell me what code to write when men do it for free?🤔

My negative value rule for startups: If your idea is good, somebody will eventually make a big business of it. So you’re in a race. And as a startup, speed is one of your few advantages. Each new feature, hire & process slows you down, saps that advantage. So start with “no.”

I think “grit” is required to get better at anything but in particular coding. The ability to fight through the frustrating is a requirement. This activity is highly rewarding if you can do that.

Everybody in the software development industry understands that learning is important if you wish to stay relevant over the long term.

Absolutely. The thing about semver major version numbers are that they don't mean new stuff, they're a permanent reminder of how many times you got the API wrong. Semver doesn't mean MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, it means FAILS.FEATURES.BUGS

When you've realized what the mistake was, run a git blame to see how long it's been that way and find that it was you who made the change, the obvious next step is to alert your IT department since someone stole your credentials.
