I make a pretty amazing barboukh. It's a north-african jewish specialty traditionally cooked for Passover. It's made from steamed flatbread crumbles, a lot of olive oil, and many spices.

Also I guess I'm pretty good at Ruby & TDD.

CSS, I just love working with it. Even though I’m more of a backend dev, CSS is easily my favourite thing to work with.
I’m also currently working on an open source SCSS design system, but I feel a bit sad because I think I’m not putting enough time into it.
And if you can call doing something a lot a specialty, add procrastination to the list as well😅😜

thanks for the question, I like making realtime interactive applications with websockets and reactive databases(such as mongodb watch command).

A second would be private or consortium blockchains for big business.

I promise you, there is still enough that I do not know. for some part, it meaned to focus on specific areas, not becoming middle level at everything.
I mean i am middle level at a lot of things, but our field of software development is so big.

I love working with RTEs(Rich Text Editors) like Tiptap(tiptap.dev/) and Lexical(lexical.dev/). I've developed several projects for/with Tiptap and evan landed a couple of gigs where I worked on their RTEs. Overall very interesting topic for me!

Haha, no I'm no legend, just someone who finds RTEs very interesting!

Race conditions: Seems like most developers don't pay a lot of attention to this class of problems and I find and fix them all over the place.

Databases: I'm not a pro but somehow I always become the database guru on dev teams. Using databases well (in high concurrency environments) requires understanding (again) race conditions well, and I've also invested more time into learning SQL than most devs around me.

Git: Again, not a pro, but have learned enough to usually be the best at it among non-pros. Am comfortable with rebasing and force pushing and often help when people have messed something up, like when they make mistakes while merging.
