Full stack diaper changer- Full curious developer. (he/him)
Opinions are not my own, they are the opinions of the brain goblin.
Learning about code and rambling about it.
If you come for deep insights and profound knowledge of code, you come to the wrong place.
I will display my ignorance in code while pretending to share my learnings.
To compensate... I'll share some food or plant pictures.
And if you have an itch that you want to scratch, you can come to me, I build it with you, I add it to the catalogue and you get a couple other apps for free.
Right now I have:
A status tracker for different things around the house (chores, fridge, stuff like that).
A recipe list easily searchable and with tags.
For this to work I'd have to add a centralized entry page.
I have a dumb business idea.
I've started to scratch my own itch with several little apps to remove some annoyances.
I wonder if making them open source, but with a hosting option would be worth it.
You pay something like 1 euro per little app per year, everything is centralized.
You can self host it if you like that better (but it's more expensive).
With coding assistants being highly subsidized (thus, for now, worth it).
I am having fun letting them create small little projects I wouldn't really put in production, but are fine enough for me)
A few days ago I had the pleasure of discussing Ruby with Stan and Lucian.
We ended up discussing why Ruby can feel less daunting than other programming languages.

🚨 New Episode Alert 🚨
I was extremely privileged to be joined by Stan and @lucian to discuss #Ruby (and a bit of Rails)
Why does ruby feels so elegant?
Can a programing language hold beauty?
Why did they decide to use or not use Ruby?
All that and more here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0UaTHzRtNkiSfqWVigJNTq?si=qn7X-Gj4Tr2Zw3uhCmrl8g
I have a new idea for a podcast. But:
1- it's not compatible with the JSI format
2- I don't know if I am allowed to have 2 pods at the same time.
In case I have someone for a pilot:
"Around a hot tech-e"
Me or a guest come with a hot take in tech and talk around it for an hour

Thank you to all the listeners, really appreciate the support 🫶🫶
I wrote something different:
My code is a liar!
And yet, it's never wrong,
It does give quick feedback,
And most of it for naught.
A couple of weeks ago Sami and Asli joined me to discuss bootcamps.
Do you think AI should be leveraged in learning code?
