The action or process of thinking
My last post was in December, 2024. A lot of things have happened since then. Most importantly I'm a father now, with very little time to sit in front of the computer. In the past I have looked at blogging as career blogging. I'm a developer,
Previously I've done day1 and day2 in Zig. But day 3 rolled around, and it begs for regular expressions! ⚠️ Uh, spoilers, I guess. Anyway, Zig doesn't have any regular expressions, and the library I found does not support captures. So instead of finding another
Onwards to day 2, we're looking at reports ! If you want to check the previous day, linkie below 👇 Advent of Code 2024 in Zig - Day 1 Inspired by my brother’s post about his efforts solving AOC with Rust, I thought I’d share my
Inspired by my brother's post about his efforts solving AOC with Rust , I thought I'd share my adventure with Zig . I decided to choose Zig because I wanted to get into manual-memory-managed-land. I have solved some days in the previous years using Go,

Some thoughts on "The Checklist Manifesto" by Atul Gawande, mainly the key takeaways, but also why you should read it.
I just blew my own mind, accidentally. This is a short little thingamabob about injecting dependencies. But not like that . I come from a primarily Java background. I dabbled in Go and currently write a bunch in Python for backend and js/ts for frontend. Yet I still carry with
I've been having a bit of trouble writing Rust recently. I've been second guessing myself a lot about whether choosing it for a side project was a good idea. The reason for that is that I'm creating something that I've never done
This has been brewing for quite a while. I've witnessed many debates on programming languages - which is better, which is worse, how dumb you are for choosing one against the other. And while I think that there is merit to these conversations - to some, at least -, there'
This past two weeks I've been off work - yearly PTO and everything. In that time, doing some personal project, I've been contemplating about work - the things we have to do and the things we do enjoy. What better way to spend Christmas, right? I was also
