As a dev, it’s super important to put yourself in the user perspective, make sense of the design/feature you’re building. Understand that it’s the product owner’s call at the end but sometimes common sense can be missed and it’s everyone’s responsibility to raise the concern

Back at Nodejs and Typescript again.

Second week in the project, 3 PRs pushed to main! Let’s gooooo 😄

Say what you want but I don’t think #ChatGPT is going to replace creative workers! At the end of the day, it’s an algorithm and when you use an algorithm, it has a pattern, it’s repetitive and uninventive 🤷🏻‍♀️

ChatGPT has made Stackoverflow and other sites awfully quiet recently 😅
But if everything else isn’t growing, would #chatGPT still able to learn from the Internet 🤔

Why can’t I get out of Search mode and go to my profile on #airbnb iOS app? And even if there is a way, this UX has been ruined 🤣.

I said I wanted to learn Java, but ended up learning #Kotlin for the new client project! Gotta say I’m loving it so far 😄. It’s also quite similar to #Typescript don’t you think?

Two months into my first #devjob and I learned that building a CI/CD pipeline and infra configuration for your app is a whole topic in itself.

Also, you cannot be a good developer without understanding #AWS and its products.

Time to buy #AMZN 🧐🤔😅
