Code refactoring isn't about changing the code's output, but enhancing its internal structure. It reduces complexity and improves maintainability, without altering functionality. Remember, well-maintained code is the foundation of scalable software development.
Stayed up late recently working on some code projects with Design Canada on in the background. Fantastic documentary! I highly recommend.
Coding is awesome, creating is inspiring. Solving problems is a high. But there is a world beyond the screen that needs just as much if not more attention.
If you write PHP you know about Laravel. It's a solid ecosystem, but don't get too comfortable, or should I say, don't let its ecosystem blind you from the larger software engineering world out there. There is a very vast ocean of technologies to explore.
Are people still talking about IOT? I haven't seen any conversations about that in a while.
AI Ethics is crucial for ensuring technologies align with human values, respect privacy, and promote fairness. Developers must prioritize transparency, accountability, and inclusivity to build trust and mitigate bias. Let's code responsibly.
Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web in 1989. It revolutionized information sharing by enabling the interlinking of documents via hyperlinks, accessible through web browsers. Now we buy anything we want and have it shipped to our houses through this technology. It's global impact is immeasurable.
Regularly review and refactor your code to improve its readability and efficiency. Write clear documentation and embrace automated testing to catch potential issues early. Consistent maintenance is key to sustaining a healthy codebase and reducing technical debt.
I started playing around with Rust a few days ago. I get why people are loving it. #rust #softwaredevelopment
I do not like iPhone Mirroring. Tired it, but it really just gets in the way.
Stay vigilant about web security, you can probably Google 8 reasons to do so.
Code deployments should be reliable and efficient. Automate with CI/CD pipelines to reduce errors. Ensure thorough testing in staging environments before pushing to production. Monitor logs and performance metrics post-deployment to quickly catch and resolve issues. Make your life easier.
Cloud providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud offer scalable infrastructure, storage, and API services that enable rapid development and deployment. Evaluate based on cost, performance, support, and specific service offerings to choose the best fit for your project's needs. DO NOT just pick one and assume it's perfect for every client.
Prioritize data security. Encrypt sensitive information, apply robust access controls, regularly update software, and educate your team on phishing and social engineering threats. Implement diligent logging and monitoring to detect breaches early. Secure, vigilant practices are key to protecting data integrity. Trust me, you'll be thankful for the reminder one day.
Definitely feeling Imposter Syndrome in todays dev market.
@kevin there are certainly things I dislike but some things that are handy and it works well in confluence so ultimately it comes with enterprise territory.
As a software developer, if you continue your career toward higher and higher level decision making (aka heading into management) then it's in your best interest to get familiar with UML and handy tools like PlantUML. #SoftwareDevelopment #PHP
I think I could write a decent blog post on how much worse the technical debt is with micro-services than it is with modern monolithic builds.
I firmly believe that far too many software projects are built for a scale that will never happen, and if it did by then the codebase will have been completely altered from its original state. Future-proofing is nonsense. Most web-based applications can run perfectly fine on a $5 a month server. #SoftwareDevelopment #php
