🐛 My win this week: my Summer Bug Smash submission got featured by the official DEV Community LinkedIn!
I wrote about a notification bug where a “clever” optimization turned out to break when someone used a second monitor.
The eventual fix? Delete the optimization. 😂
The Bug Smash results aren't out yet, but seeing DEV pick up and share the write-up is already a pretty cool win for me. 🙌
The Optimization That Was Too Good: Why Our Push Notifications Only Worked When You Weren't Looking | DEV Community
A notification suppressed whenever the tab was visible. Then a user mentioned the second monitor. This dev's fix was deleting the clever optimization entirely. Submitted for the Summer Bug Smash. { author: Dhruv Jani } https://lnkd.in/gsvvH46P
I think my biggest win this week is getting the ability to award Gems. It’s such a cool feeling to be able to dig up and highlight those less popular but genuinely great articles that might otherwise fly under the radar ❤️
That's awesome Sylwia! ❤️
Gems feature really helps hidden gems get noticed
Love seeing underrated articles get the spotlight
This week, the Thirty‑Six Stratagems series has reached three‑quarters of its total run. The grand finale is finally drawing near.😝
Not sure if everyone is aware of my love for auth and fraud detection, but I have been playing around with these for a while, and one of my Temporal projects finally made it onto the Temporal Code Exchange! 🎉
I submitted FlowShield, an authentication system built with Temporal, with email verification, password reset and JWT auth, plus AI bits for fraud detection, password analysis and behavioural security. It also has a React frontend and Docker setup.
The Temporal team reviewed and accepted the submission, so it’s now officially up on their site. Pretty happy about this one! ☺️
If anyone's interested, they can check it out here: temporal.io/code-exchange/flowshie...
(+) I got finally an offer 🎉
(-) That said offer was so bad that was almost offensive 😂
(+) Also today i will go to black keys concert, which i will consider it my future highlight of the week.
So neutral week for me
what was in the offer? 👀
The money was too little, only a one-year contract, and it was fully on-site, which the recruiter had told me was 2 days per week at the office
Last week before the first big hackathon I'm organizing with the help of Station N in New Caledonia, dedicated to Open Data and Job offering in public sector :

I have two!
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I started at a new company!
I published two projects around the open-source task manager SuperProductivity.
As someone who used to heavily rely on Todoist + Toggl, SuperProductivity has been a game-changer, specially because of it being open-source, which means it is built around letting folks expand its capabilities and make it your own!
Small one, but it had been bugging me. A post of mine had its canonical URL pointing at the dev.to copy instead of at my own blog, so the credit for my own writing was going to the wrong place. Fixed it under Advanced Options in the editor, which I had never opened before.
Also finally wrote the first proper update post for my app instead of putting it off again.
I deep dived into the rust language compiler, for a inerest in making custom error, and although the issue was already up, I have raised a PR, and sharing the findings with community
I seen a Pelican flying today as I was mowing.
I've seen many muskrat, deer and even a salamander (that I'm afraid I could not save from being where it shouldn't have been)!
I no longer work in IT, or as a Developer.
Grass and grass touching is what I do now.
I still code for myself, and during the day I break my body for money.
But there is no AI whatsoever in what I do. No threat in the near future (where I work is far too poor to pay for AI enabled grass touching machines) and no one is insisting I use more (or any) Tokens of any kind.
Does it suck? Yes in many ways. My hands hurt to type this. My back hurts sitting to type this. Everything is broken and breaking (it was like that when I got there), so I guess that's kinda the same as IT/Coding.
But, NO AI!
Small wins can make a big difference, especially when you can clearly see the progress from one week to the next. It’s always interesting to see what others are building, learning, or finally getting working.
contributed to launching Kilo Code for JetBrains on Product Hunt. ranked #1 Product of the Day, currently #1 Product of the Week. OSS ftw!
Shipped two blog posts and finally read Search Console properly. 46 of my 103 pages are not indexed, which explains more than I wanted it to. Not a glamorous win, but knowing beats guessing.
Published my first post on DEV! You said small wins counted. 😁
Aww Pikachu and Togepi party time! 🎉
Crazy cute bro 😂
