Hi! Iβm Andri. I will write about all sorts of tech. Then I might complain about things that I think should be fixed.
During the day, I work as a Tech Lead at PARKPARK. Opinions are my own

Wait a few months and try reading it again to find out.

RT @jasongorman@twitter.com: If all your microservices need all your other microservices to work, I heartily recommend consolidating them all back into a single ball of mud. Because that's what you've got there.

I became ill yesterday (nothing serious) and when I had watched all the TV i could stomach I read the ActivtiyPub spec. I'm starting to see a lot of potential in it.

.@mhall119 is developing an ethical alternative to #MeetUp called #GetTogether.
There's already a flagship site up and running:

The dev is working on #ActivityPub support and is requesting feedback on what more needs to be done:

RT @soniagupta504@twitter.com: I always liked that lawyers and doctors "practice law" and "practice medicine."

RT @exkuchme@twitter.com: i pathologically hate accidentally commiting console.logs and One Cool Trick to not do that is a simple:

Are you a programmer that struggles with imposter-syndrome?
- In a field this broad, everyone is an imposter in some way
- Own it and keep learning. Nobody knows everything.
- Help others learn. It's a great way to solidify what you already know.
