If you or your agents write Go code, I think you should try the following command on your projects. Add it to a linter if you will. Comprehension of Go code starts to break not only when it gets too nested, but also, when too many errors get handled in the same unit of code.

Hi everyone! I’m @gsmendoza, a 18-year Ruby on Rails veteran. I am looking for a new role and would appreciate your support. Thank you in advance for any connections, advice, or opportunities you can offer.

P.S. Thanks @wintermeyer for inviting me here! I love it!

Welcome George! Good to have you onboard.

For anyone reading this: George is a Ruby on Rails genius. If you have a Rails project and need help, just hire him. A no-brainer.

It’s been made clear to me that one of the reasons I was hired for this job is my boss read the README files of some of my OSS projects and was impressed at how clear and detailed a writer I am.

Just in case you thought written-English wasn’t a useful skill for a developer: It got me this job. Work on your writing skills if you want to survive in tech.

@boilingsteam@mstdn.jp As a veteran developer, I will admit that I used code snippets, copied algorithms out of books, accepted auto-complete, and used canned routines. NPM and nodeJS have their attractions, but security isn’t one of them. I can see how AI search (not gen) could be part of a better faster secure development process. As a maintenance programmer, or supervising other developers, I don’t want the hassle of having to decode code that didn’t come from my juniors, and generalizing my testing for cases that ought not be programmed in the first place but could now be there. GenAI is like maintaining code made by the averaging of people you don’t know, not knowing how they think, assuming without confidence levels of competence you’ve grown to expect as professional. How could that be good?

Just learned that if you modify GPL (including AGPL) stuff, it has to have a “relevant date” with your prominent notices of modifying it.

???

Does that mean you have to say “(name) modified this line here to do W thing on day X of month Y and year Z”?

No, I don’t want to chat with a chatbot when I’m reading your documentation. That button being there makes me think you use slopbots to make your stuff and tells me not to use it too.
