Jump on any online discussion, and you will hear “DX that framework”, “DX this tool”, etc.

About 15 years ago, I got my first software engineering job, and the way things were done back then—was different.

For the past months, I spent (almost) all of my free time working on my side business — JustFax Online.

In my latest blog post, I compared software engineers to construction engineers.

Yesterday I was browsing /r/programming and came across a blog post titled “After CrowdStrike, Programmers Deserve Consequences.”

About a week ago, my wife and I went to our first escape room in the Netherlands.

I started my software engineering career more than 14 years ago.

As some of you might know, for the past few months, my free time is spent on JustFax Online.

Emails play an important role in my project JustFax Online.

In my last blog post, I mentioned briefly the fact that today there are more engineers than meaningful jobs for them.

I’ve been thinking recently about two things: The Roman Empire and the unnecessary bloat in Software Engineering.

In the past period of six months when I roamed around Central America, among the six projects that I launched—two where books that I wrote.

Localization, often times stylized as l10n, is a process of adapting your website or web application to meet the requirements of specific target market (known as “locale”).

GNU Make.

We all know the joke about how node_modules is the heaviest object in the universe.

In a world controlled by the event loop, setTimeout is the king of execution control.

Legacy.

Take a good look at the following function and try to understand what it’s doing. function do_magic(a, b) { return a + b; } Is it summing two numbers?

It’s that time again.
