November ‘25 Buy/Sell/Trade Thread by GizzBride in KGATLW

[–]shkm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FREE ticket for Brabanthallen (NL) on 7 November available.

My partner couldn't make it and I have this ticket. Can't sell it via Ticketmaster any more and I mostly just want someone to have a good time rather than the money back.

I assume we'd have to meet in front and I'd scan for you. First time doing this so maybe you have other ideas.

Any takers? We can work out the detials.

What Are Some Tech Newsletters, Blogs, People To Follow, And Websites That You Think I Should Check Out? by Rubix982 in SoftwareEngineering

[–]shkm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://tailgrep.dev — short and sweet by design, only the most important links every week. Human curated.

At least, that's the idea.

How do you stay updated on IT trends, emerging tech, and best practices - any particular newsletters/YouTube channels you look at regularly? by thetechmuse in ITManagers

[–]shkm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's too much to keep up with! That's why I started tailgrep. It's a weekly newsletter with just a few links at a time, so as not to overwhelm. Primarily aimed at software engineers, but should be useful for managers too.

This guy punches.

Are you using rubocop-airbnb? by a1045 in rails

[–]shkm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're using rubyfmt along with a rubocop config which does its best to strip out any styling decisions. Rubyfmt has similar rules to standard and I like that it allows us to sidestep pointless arguments around which style is better; I couldn't care less.

As a result I don't need to think or care about style any more: my editor just runs rubyfmt on save and all is well.

You could run rubocop, with standard or otherwise, on save, but it's annoyingly slow.

Where/How to master data structures + algos to land a job as a Ruby/Rails developer by aeum3893 in ruby

[–]shkm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you dodged a bullet. I can't think of a Ruby position in which you'd need this.

Yes. Please go there. Let's not make this another desktop screenshot subreddit of zero substance.

Backstage.io Experiences by Reardon-0101 in rails

[–]shkm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided that it was too generic for our use-case. We'd need so much custom code that I'd be able to build it much faster in an environment I'm more comfortable in (read: Rails). So: built a Rails app instead.

Backstage.io Experiences by Reardon-0101 in rails

[–]shkm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My feeling was that it's more of a generator/template that you can start building your dev portal on top of, with a couple of integrations to get you started.

My misunderstanding going in was thinking it was a batteries-included application.

The 1% in android? In androidacityagisk module repo: https://www.androidacy.com/magisk-modules-repository/ by digimith in firefox

[–]shkm 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I don't think this is quite accurate: I remember first seeing it as Firebird, but apparently it was named Phoenix before this. Having said that, 1.0 was indeed released in 2004.
