When hiring software engneers I look beyond technical talent. What I really want is someone who understands "the ecosystem" they work in. Recruiting is always challenging. I think this is a good start to help you spot the great ones. This post On Being a Modern Software Explorer first appeared on Dan Stroot's Blog

The possibilities of the ActivityPub protocol, and what it can bring to the table regarding interoperability in the social media landscape, are immense. It is specially welcome after a decade (and half?) plagued by the dominance of centralized walled gardens that almost eradicated the diverse ecosystem that previously existed. It is used by many software […]

This post explains how you can inject dependencies into Android legacy singletons, or any classes that aren’t conforming to your current Android architecture, using Dagger & Hilt. I’ll cut straight to the chase, if you have a reference to Context, (which you usually always do in spaghetti legacy code) then you can use your normal […] The post Dependency Injection in Legacy Code first appeared on Blundell .

As a general observation, I tend to be more productive when I know what to do next at any given moment. There are days when I’ve seemingly gotten a “week” of work done on an afternoon, those are the days when what I needed to do was very clear, and I basically just had a list of items to tick off one by one. There have admittedly also those ignoble weeks weeks when I’ve gotten an afternoon’s work done, mostly they are weeks when it’s no..

King and I wrote a blog post about building an event-driven cross-platform IO library that used io_uring on Linux. We sketched out how it works at a high level but I hadn't yet internalized how you actually code with io_uring. So I strapped myself down this week and wrote some benchmarks to build my intuition about io_uring and other IO models. I started with implementations in Go and ported them to Zig to make sure I had done the Go ....

Hi, Das kennst du bestimmt. Du willst einen Breaking-Change in deinem System machen. Vielleicht willst du eine API ändern. Oder du möchtest deine Environments umstellen. Oder du willst einen Service abschalten, weil er nicht mehr benötigt wird. Immer wenn ich vor so einer Entscheidung stehe frage ich mich welche Konsequenzen sie haben wird. Wird sie andere Stakeholder beeinflussen? Meistens lautet die Antwort, ja. So auch im aktuell..

Applies (or removes) an advisory lock on a specified file Although it doesn't have feature-parity, the script is compatible with flock(1). The script was created because, although the OS has the relevant API (i.e. flock(2)), Mac OS doesn't have the flock cli utility. This script provides a (mostly) drop-in cross-platform option. The script only supports acquiring exclusive locks (in blocking or non-blocking mode) Read more…

While I have been using a minimal smartphone for years - that is to say, a smartphone with as few apps as I “felt possible” (more on that later) - what I found after deleting my main digital narcotic was that instead of spending less time on my phone ..
