Since the last time I had too much fun, I wanted to repeat the experiment by taking another Coding Challenge. This time I’m gonna explain how I implemented an Application Load Balancer in Golang.
Let’s go! 🚀
I’ve been using Golang in the past months, and I was very happy about it, this language makes me feel entertained and productive and the same time. Studying for me is a lifelong journey, and with that in mind, I decided to keep using it for another challenge/project that I found quite simple but interesting.
You’ll see! I spent some of my free time on it and today, I’d like to share with you which route I took to accomplish it.
Let’s start!
I decided to expose myself more and more, I like to share my opinions and experiences (you can say reading this blog), and this time I decided to attend as a interviewee for a well known Podcast in Italy talking about something I’ve done for 3 months, are you curious about it?
»Since the beginning of my career in this industry, I’ve always been fascinated by the open-source world.
After so many years of contributing on my own, this year, I finally joined for 3 months an open-source team within VMware and discovered how an open-source team works.
In this article, I’m going to tell you more about this open-source journey and how it went. Let’s go! 🚀
A few weeks ago I passed my AWS Certified Developer Associate (DVA-02) exam and I thought it would have been nice to document how heck I accomplished to do it on a first try, and of course provide some hints to whoever wants to do the same. 🧑🏻💻👨🏻💻
»🎉 I am thrilled to share that I have recently achieved my AWS Certified Developer – Associate certification! ☁️🧑🏻💻
»In today’s digital landscape, developing software with a security-oriented mindset is no longer an option – it’s a top priority.
I’ve had the opportunity to attend the Secure Software Development Fundamentals Course by the Open Source Security Foundation, and I found it enlightening and a must for passionate Software Engineers.
So today, I’m going to talk about a set of widely recommended Security Design Principles that serve as invaluable rules of thumb for developing software with security-first in mind.

Mastodon is a new hot-trend topic, so I spent some time trying to wrap my head around it.
The decentralisation is an exciting part of Mastodon; if tomorrow I don’t like the instance where my account resides anymore, I can always switch to another instance and bring all my data seamlessly. It’s fantastic, except that now it’s like having another account with a different address, so I need to share it with my “audience” again and again.
Doing some research, I discover how to create a custom alias for my Mastodon account to have it always pointing to my current account; let’s see how!
I often read tweets, threads and posts about a weird practice called Pair Programming, full of complaints. But I find this usually due to a lack of understanding and improper implementation.
I’d like to clarify why those complaints are misleading and why you shouldn’t write pair programming off completely.
As an Extreme Programmer I used to jumping often into different engagements, each of them has challenges I need to overcome and problems I need to solve.
This time I jumped into an engagement with a legacy codebase composed mainly by AWS lambdas written in Typescript. Language and technology I’ve never used before.
How can I learn the language and at the same time being able to quickly deliver value?
The answer in my head was clear: let’s create some tests, the rest will follow!
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…
