Just published a new post When Small Parquet Files Become a Big Problem (and How I Ended Up Writing a Compactor in PyArrow) about small data engineering problem
Great post
Got some new badges this week, wasn't expecting that, tbh ๐ Thanks! I really appreciate it. The vibes here are amazing, and the humbleness in the community is something special ๐.
As a lil token of appreciation, I'll be rewriting Dev in Rust! More on that in an upcoming post!
I took part in the Amazon Q Developer "Quack the Code" challenge!
It was a super fun vibe coding journey where I explored how AI can enhance the development experience. Along the way, I learned (and reinforced) some valuable practices: project structure, unit testing, and the importance of clear and concise documentation.
If you'd like to check out my submission, feedback is more than welcome!
My big win this week was a trifecta of firsts! ๐
I brainstormed, developed, and got my very first CLI tool, npm package, and fully open-source project out the door โ all while juggling a full-time job, some internal company projects, and other side hustles. It was a serious sprint, but incredibly rewarding!
The project is called qmims, and it's a CLI tool designed to help developers create and maintain their README.md files and project documentation.
I actually just submitted it to the Amazon Q "Quack The Code" Challenge here on DEV. Check out my submission post and the project itself. Any feedback or thoughts would be amazing!
๐ฐ I published a new post on DEV! โจ

Cool!
Thanks! ๐
I learned the difference between
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, Pack = 0)]and[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, Pack = 1)]in .NET which enabled me to adjust an unpacking format string in python to correctly unpack our arcane data structure.lol i finally remembered to bring my lunch this week, feels like a win tbh
Well done! โบ๏ธ
I fixed the dumbest bug in the history of the flipper zero fw, someone put an
!where they wer'nt supposed to during a cli refactor, and it toke me SIX STRIGHT HOURS OF WORK TO FIND THAT OUT!I made this post last month, but no one seems to have seen it for some reason?
Have no idea what a Mii or a Flipper Zero is - but wanted to say that I've seen your post :D
Flipper Zero: A bunch of sensors wrapped around an arm processor
Mii: Nintendo's excuse for making you buy more junk to progress in video games.
@iamguyca It is a character you create on a Nintendo device and which you can play with or against in some Nintendo games and meet along with a bunch of others at Mii Plaza. I know because I got a Nintendo 3DS.
Hahaha, a classic from the devverse! Sometimes a single character turns into a 'big bug boss' and takes hours to defeat. Congrats on the effort and thanks for contributing to open source!
Feels good thinking about the little wins - sometimes those tiny things just make my whole week better.
That is absolutely true!
