It's that time of the week again.
So wonderful devs, what did you learn this week? It could be programming tips, career advice etc.
A lot of terminal stuff it seems.
I learned that instead of using
>you can use>>to concat an output to a file.For grep I learned a bunch of options like
-v(ignore case),-A(lines after),-B(lines before),-o(get just the specific searched string) and this cool one-Eo '.{0,20}a href.{0,70}'to get the amount of chars before and after an occurrence of a string, 'a href' in that case.Learned of a type of program called terminal notifier, which notifies you when a long task like compiling finally finishes. Though I couldn't figure out how to get that to work w/ my server I SSH into.
Learned about Insomnia, alternative to Postman.
This git command,
git diff -U0 HEAD~1, which will just show you the difference and no lines before like git diff usually does. Helpful for when I pipe for a change likegit diff -U0 HEAD~1 | grep crmto see if I missed a search and replace.Lastly how to find the top 5 directories ,
du -hs * | sort -rh | head -5. This helped me when my VM that I use for my staging Cassandra instance got full and nothing could connect anymore. I learned where Cassandra keeps the data on the disk,/var/lib/cassandra/dataAwesome!
Realised that DE-NO is NO-DE reversed. Changed my life.
Did you mean :p
I learned about linters and started setting up ESLint for one of my repos.

Great week for me! I set up pre commit hooks for linting and running tests for staged files, set up a Jenkins pipeline, and got docker compose running for my services. I want to write my first post/guide on one of them later this week
I learn how to add forms to an observable notebook (it's like a coding playground) and modify their behavior. I used them to make interactive examples in here: Using the Maybe type in js

actions/cache@v2
GitHub actions cache. My gatsby site now builds in about half the time, much of which is now installing node_modules and deploy.
REGEX
I got comfortable enough with a few regex commands to use it to filter data catalogs.

I finally learned how to use docker for local development. I always pushed this aside until I needed to use postresql which is a pain to setup locally on a linux environment. So I learned how to use

P.S: Any other typescript memes are always welcomed 🚀
Learned how to setup all AWS resources using templates and AWS Sam. It's easier (once you get the hang of it), it can be put in source control, it can be included in build scripts, it can be launched locally. Really happy with this. Wrote a post about it too: dev.to/psiho/build-deploy-all-aws-...

I re-learned that just because a library promises zero-configuration, it isn't necessarily so, and sometimes it's easier to roll your own.
They said zero config...
Upgrading to Angular 10 from 9 (which was done just a week ago). Thinking Angular should be named as Zoomgular due to speed of releases.
