Developer, games collector and twitch streamer. I stream development, me fumbling around learning new things and just enjoy talking all things dev.

Some days, it's hard to find the motivation, you look at what others are doing and just feel lesser. It's important not to compare yourself to others and push yourself forward.

I've been trying to build an app with ngrx signalStore but I'm struggling to understand from examples and docs how i should use the tools effectively.with a new technology, gpt is useless, and finding good "how tos" is https://t.co/QeBn4hrYmY do you learn to use new tech?

@theterk I don't consider myself pc or console. Some games just feel more comfortable on the couch.sports games,rpgs.. just easier for me.

@TannerSlays Stuff like this gets painful to watch. If this becomes the norm and one day everyone can do shit like this, the games future isn’t looking too bright…

This isn’t Apex Legends gameplay at all 🤮

@michaeljolley I've been watching a few channels recently on YT, and been getting the itch to camp but I'm certain I'm too soft these days.

[Terry Burns-Dyson @terryburnsdyson]

@holiwhirl You are a really great streamer, and it's definitely a loss to twitch.may you find that energy and passion transfer into your development career. P.s twitch does have a good software dev streams community, if you're ever tempted ;)

2.5 mile walk before breakfast feels https://t.co/BGOzaZxPSH I test for my red belt in karate.I'm working towards being able to run that distance for black belt.Getting out of shape is way easier! Goals.

Been looking forward to @BeatSaber for psvr2.let my 14yr old play it, she s-ranked bohemian raphsody on normal her first try.Guess I'll be playing this when she's not around then.

@copperbeardy It feels cruel to hit the like button on such a tweet, as this seems based on experience! 🤣

I installed @GitHubCopilot for the first time, and I swear it's reading my mind! I'm finding it useful as a productivity tool, but also as an educational one.

Developing distributed systems comes with some fun challenges as a solo developer. In the months it's taken me to get something running on kubernetes I've really come to appreciate the benefits, but come across massive challenges. How do you develop locally?

[Terry Burns-Dyson @terryburnsdyson]

When you want to learn how to do something, do you follow a tutorial exactly, or try and adapt the tutorial to your project?

[Terry Burns-Dyson @terryburnsdyson]

@theterk I liked the honesty https://t.co/M7nyMOf08p seemed very genuine,and if that leadership style is truly one he promotes,inspiring.

[Terry Burns-Dyson @terryburnsdyson]

No matter how long I've been a developer, the feeling of having a breakthrough moment still feels the way it did 30 years ago.

[Terry Burns-Dyson @terryburnsdyson]

@16bitnostalgia No, that's just a couple of years ago right? Surely it's not that old. Surely I'm not that old. 😞

[Terry Burns-Dyson @terryburnsdyson]

I've been spending a lot of time lately trying to learn about how to deploy a microservice based application. I'm deep in the rabbit hole of kubernetes, teamcity and all manner of things.I have an appreciation for devops as a role that I didn't have before.

[Terry Burns-Dyson @terryburnsdyson]

Psvr2 is definitely a leap above the first one.its a much more refined solution, worth the price so far I say.Enjoying GT7 the most so far.

[Terry Burns-Dyson @terryburnsdyson]

@mdf200 If you're going to cave, might as well do it right!

Starting up the stream https://t.co/1qcDElmVXC bit of Kafka today I think and seeing if I've written myself in to a hole
