Writing about development and technology.
Connecting incompatible interfaces. How to make old code work with new code without rewriting.
Don't check every second if a new video is up. One subscribe button automatically notifies you. The elegant design pattern solving 1:N dependencies.
Add new features without modifying existing class. Like adding whipped cream, syrup, shot to coffee. Dynamically combine features. Principle behind Python @decorator.
SRP, OCP, LSP, ISP, DIP. The foundation of maintainable software architecture. Examples in TypeScript.
Quick & Dirty code feels fast now, but you pay interest later. Don't go bankrupt.
Logs are the black box of your infrastructure. When disaster strikes, grep is not enough. We explore the ELK Stack—the industry standard for centralized logging. Understand the roles of Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana, compare modern alternatives like Fluentd and Vector, and learn strategies for Index Lifecycle Management (ILM).
MVC's Controller got too fat. Split into Presenter/ViewModel, auto-update with Data Binding. Core pattern of modern frontend.
In the era of autonomous vehicles and real-time IoT, the speed of light is too slow. Edge Computing minimizes latency by processing data closer to the source. We explore the architecture of Edge vs. Cloud, the role of 5G, Fog Computing, and the unique challenges of managing distributed edge infrastructure.
Analyzing the trade-offs between Compiled languages (C++) and Interpreted languages (Python). How JIT Compilers bridge the gap.
Writing test BEFORE code. Red -> Green -> Refactor. The Double-Entry Bookkeeping of Programming.
Unit tests check the bricks; E2E tests check the building. Learn how to simulate real user journeys using modern tools like Cypress and Playwright. We cover best practices for writing resilient selectors, handling authentication, fighting test flakiness, and where E2E fits in the Testing Pyramid.
When you break a monolith into microservices, you lose ACID transactions. How do you ensure data consistency across boundaries? We explore the limitations of Two-Phase Commit (2PC) and dive deep into the Saga Pattern, Event Consistency, and practical implementation strategies like Choreography vs Orchestration.
Visualizing work flow. Why limiting WIP (Work In Progress) makes you faster.
Sprinting every 2 weeks (Scrum) vs Continuous flow like sushi belt (Kanban). Which one fits your team?
Stop hiring 'DevOps Engineers' to fix your broken culture. DevOps is about breaking down silos between Development and Operations, not creating a new silo. We explore the 'Three Ways' of DevOps (Flow, Feedback, Learning), the importance of CI/CD, Immutable Infrastructure, and why DevSecOps is the inevitable future.
Waterfall follows the plan rigorously. Agile adapts to change swiftly. Which suits your team? Agile isn't always the answer.
Round Robin, Least Connections, IP Hash explained. The difference between L4 (Layer 4) and L7 (Layer 7) load balancing, and how to configure Nginx as a Reverse Proxy.
DDoS attacks are getting smarter and larger. This guide breaks down the anatomy of an attack, distinguishing between volumetic (L3/L4) and application layer (L7) assaults. Learn how enterprise defenses like Anycast networks, scrubbers, and intelligent rate limiting protect modern infrastructure.
'It works on my machine' is no longer an excuse. Robots test (CI) and deploy (CD) when you push code. Deploy 100 times a day with automation pipelines.
DDD is not just about entities and repositories. It's a strategic approach to tackling complex software problems. Learn how Ubiquitous Language, Bounded Contexts, and Aggregates can help you model the real world and align your software architecture with business goals. We also explore Event Storming and Strategic Design.
