I've written a book that's no fun, good for ridicule, and it's such a mess. If you are interested in ridiculing my book, feel free to throw your bomb at me after reading The Art Of Messy Code

Sup, folks! Even though I've been living under a heavy rock, the Dev goodies I've been eagerly waiting for have finally arrived! Huge thanks go out to the amazing Forem team for their dedication and hard work in sending these awesome items. The mug they sent is just gigantic and looks amazing! amirite?

dope stuff

To be honest, I don't think I'll be wearing these goodies; they're too special to me. I've decided to preserve them in a locked closet as cherished memories. On another note, there are a couple of items that haven't arrived yet, but no worries! I totally understand if it's a headache to send stuff abroad. The support from the Forem team means a lot to us programmers, and we truly appreciate it. Thanks again, you guys are absolute geniuses!

Some of the items that haven't arrived yet:
dope stickers
dope backpack

And hey, I just spotted some super cool new items featured on the home page! I'm really digging them. I think it's time to join a hackathon and try my luck at getting some of those goodies. They're just too awesome to pass up, amirite?

Not only that, but I also managed to launch this little product that totally outshines our skills. Seriously, AI is ridiculously good at everything! It's mind-blowing! 😄 I know some of you might be curious about what I'm up to! It's all in good fun, I promise! I'm just trying out this super cool and exciting experiment with the help of some awesome tools like Coda. It's fascinating to explore the possibilities! 😉

P.S. I like TypeScript, but it is not my favorite language. Have a good day/evening, ma frens!

With #anxiety I presented a well received display of Graylog with the hope of being able to introduce standard logging practices to our work environment.
If not, well at least I learned a TON about it all and will operationalize it for my home network :)

Woot woot! Really happy to hear that you're crossposting with us here, Lionel. 😀

I think you're already doing this, but in case not, you can connect your blog to dev via Publishing to DEV Community from RSS (available in extensions) and import posts onto DEV, which makes it a bit easier to cross-post articles. Note that you need to have RSS set up for your blog, but once you do that, you can get rolling with it.
