Embedded software engineers: How far do you use AI in your work? Is vibe coding possible when you are close to hw?

Code is poetry, but most programmers are writing horror stories.

Let’s continue adding value to our health, relationships and work. Let’s add value to life in general.

Nobody hanging around at Bluesky nowadays? Where are people of this platform?

Regularly recognizing that every software engineering decision involves trade-offs is a simple yet powerful approach to effective decision-making.

Promotions in a company…

How do you see promotions around you? Do you observe people who do good job get promoted or in general is it another ‘skill’ to know how to climb the career ladders?

Get education -> Execute -> Be Consistent

Each time I try being active on Twitter/X, I realize I like the Bluesky most. A rare platform where I feel the freedom and access to many nice people.

‘It is not invented by us that’s why we ignore existing possible solution and develop our own fancy stuff.’

How familiar it sounds and what a waste it is mostly.

I want to deepen my understanding on cybersecurity. As such, I am following a series of courses on Coursera which seems fine to get the concepts as a beginner.

I know that it is a huge field but I wonder if you guys have useful sources or tips. I am fine if you want to share your own experience.

Better software engineers will be needed in the light of AI.

Which python linter is your favorite and why?

Ruff, pylint, flake8 etc?

What’s up software community!

Any exciting tools or technologies nowadays?

Anybody uses Aligned Elements for requirements?

Apparently the term ‘vibe coding’ has become the new hype along with AI.
March 18, 2025 at 11:18 PM
Keep learning and be open for growth. That’s the meaning of life for me!

I know there are several options out there to manage Python dependencies and versions.

I want to express that me and my team find “uv” very convenient after starting to use it since 2 months.

How do you find uv and others?

@gergely.pragmaticengineer.com I have a question regarding your substack subscription. Is Preplexity and Kagi campaign still valid? Is there any end date? Hope you can answer.

Software engineering is an art of making trade offs.
March 5, 2025 at 4:50 PM
AI Tools will not replace software engineers ‘completely’ in the near future.

But it will change how the teams work soon for sure.

In software design, balancing extensibility with simplicity is key.

We should all stay away from over-engineering.

A question to people who develops in Python:

What is your main usage of Python? Basic scripting to automate tasks, writing applications using basic Python, or developing applications in OO way using advanced features like protocols, mixins, dataclasses etc?
