This year one of my annual resolutions was to be more present online.
I want to be more visible and share more content.
I want to create more articles and share them with more people.
Learn from feedback and grow the number of people with whom I interact.
I recently moved from Notion to Obsidian and one big problem I’ve had to face was how to sync my desktop instance with my android mobile one without having a paid plan on Obsidian.
After some researches, I discovered how to do it smoothly…
It’s been a while when I started using notional tools for my day to day. I use these tools constantly, trying to use it as a second brain.
»Have you ever wondered how to deliver good Software As A Service? Nowadays, as developers, we spend most of our time delivering software as a service, but it brings a lot of uncertainties about how to do it properly. Do you know that we already have 15 tips that can help us to achieve that visionary goal?
I’ve been reading a lot about it, and I decided to summarise them in a small article. Let’s dig deeper and find more about this methodology and the fifteen factors which belong to it…
Recently I’ve seen a thread on Twitter regarding distributed tracing systems. I recognise that sometimes it’s an underestimated topic, so I thought to write a short and introductory article about it…
»Two years ago I completely changed my life joining Thoughtworks. I moved abroad (Spain) and I grew so much in so many levels that it’s difficult to explain it…
»Often I read that for simple tasks Rust is not a good choice. Go is more adopted when we need to create a small script to automatize our jobs. But is it true?
»One of the hottest topics of the moment in Big Data is undoubtedly the Data Mesh, but what is it? Why is this better than the solutions we had before? Do we need it? Should we adopt it?
»As a greedy learner, I used to find myself full of bookmarks of stuff I want to read or watch. I’ve never had a good place to keep all the things I read/watched until I found Toby.
»Ah shit, here we go again. Another year passed, and another Hacktoberfest is over. I’ve just received my swag, and I can’t be more excited!
»I’ve finally found the time to customise my Github’s profile. It shows some interesting stats about my activities, without any external browser extension, how?
»Today I’ve talked with ItalianCoders about my experience abroad as a Software Developer. With me other five developers who are working around the world, talking about their experiences and why/how they decided to move abroad.
»I always liked the your codebase is like a garden metaphor, it says that writing software is like gardening, you have to take care of your garden in many ways and from time to time you have to move plants around relative to each other, consider how to take advantage of the wind, rain and sunlight to help your plants grow and stay healthy. Every day you have to monitor them and make adjustments as needed. Like your code. But how can we do it in practice and become good gardeners?
During our journey as developers, we often have to use external APIs, integrate our systems with them and be sure that everything works smoothly, sometimes it becomes difficult because suddenly the systems we are interacting with change their behaviour, breaking our integration.
How to prevent it?
Migrating a database is one of the most sensitive things that can happen to do at some point in our career, sometimes it is easy, sometimes it is not. Let’s see how to use the expand/contract pattern to be able to do it in both cases ~
