Why hire a $150k/year dev when you can just pay $200/month for an AI coding agent and $200k/year for a dev to fix its code?

Unpopular truth about microservices

If your app has fewer than 10k active users, you probably don’t need microservices, you need simpler code.

My hot startup take is that you should almost never work weekends

My even hotter take is that if you are working weekends, you didn't go hard enough during the week or you suck at planning

You probably already noticed that I'm a big fan of reading. I usually read 3 to 4 books monthly (not all from tech). There are two ways to learn from knowledgeable people: to work directly with them or to read what they have written. The first option is the best, yet it is often impossible to do. So, we have books written by people who are probably the best at this in the world at the time of writing.

If we look at the software engineering world, there are many gems, but I will recommend the best books per area of work. These books will help you become good at specific technology and a great software engineer overall.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗦𝗼𝗳𝘁𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗯𝘆 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁?

In a recent research paper by Microsoft researchers, the authors tried to understand what distinguishes great engineers from ordinary ones. They conducted one of the most extensive studies, surveyed 1,926 engineers, architects, and technical fellows, and asked them about the importance of 54 attributes of great engineers.

They identified four groups of attributes:

➡️ 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 - here are attributes such as passion or curiosity.

➡️ 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻-𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 - This group of attributes includes the possibilities of assessing the current situation, identifying alternative courses of action, and gauging probabilistic outcomes.

➡️ 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 - These attributes include being reasonable, influencing others, communicating effectively, and building trust.

➡️ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀' 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲 — this group of attitudes includes those bound to the beauty of the software they produce.

After the analysis, here are the top five attributes that distinguish great engineers:

𝟭. 𝗕𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗿 - Without code, there is no software, so great software engineers must be able to write good code. Such engineers pay attention to coding details and are mentally capable of handling complexity.

𝟮. 𝗠𝗮𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗪����𝗿𝗸 — Great engineers set themselves apart by considering the context of their software product and optimizing their current activities while accounting for potential future expenses and benefits. This includes considering long-term and anticipated needs and thoroughly analyzing the problem.

𝟯. 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻-𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 — Great engineers set themselves apart by following the appropriate procedures to arrive at well-informed judgments. When they say decision-making, they mean mainly "information gathering."

𝟰. 𝗘𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆 - Great engineers set themselves apart by simplifying the tasks of others and assisting them in making decisions more effectively—or, at the very least, by preventing them from getting worse.

𝟱. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗹𝘆 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 — They discovered that the capacity to acquire new technical abilities can be just as crucial as, if not more so than, mastery of existing ones.

Problem: Your code base probably contains a lot of copy/pasted code, but it's hard to find.

Solution: jscpd

jscpd is a command line tool that finds copy/pasted code and reports specific duplicated lines.

Works for over 150 languages.
