Jumping on the Ghibli trend! As an artist, I should oppose AI-generated imagery, but I can't deny how incredible these look.

I was mind-blown when Arc introduced Instant Links, but Google has had that feature since the late 90s.

We've been using @Google Search for ages, but somehow never realised that the 'I'm Feeling Lucky' button skips all the ads and search results to take you straight to the relevant website.

The bootcamp fostered a remarkable collaborative environment for learning which is crucial for growth, especially in Software Development. Highly recommend applying.

P.S. @oolhaas is a great teacher.

Looking for engineering grads who passed in 2024 for a 12-week in-person bootcamp in Mumbai.

Last year, I had the most fulfilling time of my career when I taught 10 driven folks about different modalities of product engineering. The end result? We hired 5 highly skilled and curious devs at @ProcedureHQ.

So we asked ourselves, why not do it again?

Apply if you want to break into a product engineering role. More info here - https://t.co/CchoA6S8Ca

In certain cases, I've learnt that it's essential to focus on making the software usable before aiming for extensive optimization.

[Alagappan N @alagappantwt]

I'm working on a young project in its spaghetti-code phase. The first instinct was to clean that up by introducing service and repository layers. However, it wasn't the best choice in this case because ''Before software can be reusable, it should be usable". Here's why,

The time spent building services & repos hindered development speed. Every time we needed a new model, we needed to write so much extra code.

GPTs can save a lot of effort:

How is this even possible? 😳

Someone pls give me explanation.

CI/CD Pipeline Explained to Kids

Section 1 - SDLC with CI/CD
The software development life cycle (SDLC) consists of several key stages: development, testing, deployment, and maintenance. CI/CD automates and integrates these stages to enable faster, more reliable releases.
When code is pushed to a git repository, it triggers an automated build and test process. End-to-end (e2e) test cases are run to validate the code. If tests pass, the code can be automatically deployed to staging/production. If issues are found, the code is sent back to development for bug fixing. This automation provides fast feedback to developers and reduces risk of bugs in production.

Section 2 - Difference between CI and CD
Continuous Integration (CI) automates the build, test, and merge process. It runs tests whenever code is committed to detect integration issues early. This encourages frequent code commits and rapid feedback.

Continuous Delivery (CD) automates release processes like infrastructure changes and deployment. It ensures software can be released reliably at any time through automated workflows. CD may also automate the manual testing and approval steps required before production deployment.

Section 3 - CI/CD Pipeline
A typical CI/CD pipeline has several connected stages:
- Developer commits code changes to source control
- CI server detects changes and triggers build
- Code is compiled, tested (unit, integration tests)
- Test results reported to developer
- On success, artifacts are deployed to staging environments
- Further testing may be done on staging before release
- CD system deploys approved changes to production
