Just modded an original Amiga 500 case into a modern Linux machine 🖥️🐧
Added a mechanical keyboard with the Amiga layout and a case fan—temps now down to 40–45°C! Bonus: there's even room for an Apollo #VampireV4 Standalone 😎

For work I had to dig into systems programming,so I decided to explore #Zig. Coming from years in #Ruby (and C++ as my last systems language), I was worried about syntax changes and the mindset shift of low-level programming. What surprised me is how clear Zig’s syntax feels coming from Ruby (1/2)

I can´t believe how hot is today outside, I thank my wife to force me 💪to buy an air-con years ago 🥵

#college days, those were the most intense and fun days of my youth, full of laughter, chaos, and unforgettable memories. Now we don't see each other every often, but when we do it's like it was yesterday 💪

After two weeks away, it’s time to get back to work. Summer goals:
- Practice #Zig
- Delegate more legacy work to my colleague
- In my free time, watch the top 25 movies of all time with my wife and eat buckets of popcorn 🍿

It's either that—embrace the #AI —or start packing for #Arrakis, harvest some #spice, and load up on melange to keep up! 😅

Do I use AI code assistants? Yes, I do. Do I use them for everything? Of course not. For documenting code, testing, repetitive tasks like error handling in #Golang, even #TDD—AI makes those easier. It gives me time to focus on the important stuff: #patterns, #architecture, and logic.

I've just started migrating some of the most demanded endpoints into #Golang #serverless functions. Let’s get into the zone – coffee, headphones, and #trentemoller as the soundtrack.

I can't catch a break on trending things. Last weeks I heard about #vibecoders, and it turns out it’s been a thing for a while… a while! Like what, weeks! Too fast, man. Too fast…I need holidays 😅

It’s too quiet today… I’ve got a bad feeling about this. Time to double-check the #production #logs —just in case. #devlife #developerlife

Crazy day 🥵
Spent hours debugging why pgp_sym_encrypt + JSON in #Postgres wouldn't decrypt in #Rails.
Turns out: if you store encrypted BYTEA with #pgcrypto, NEVER decrypt using $1 param — Rails/pg treats it as UTF-8 and breaks. Use decode(hex, 'hex') instead.

My tech stack evolution:
C → C++ → Java → Ruby → Go
Full circle moment... am I heading back to C? 🤔 😂
BTW before C it was Perl, but I'm definitely not going back to that 🫠

Once #Golang clicks, it’s pure magic 🤩 Still haven’t mastered it — I’m deep in #Ruby #Rails and might never fully switch… but loving the ride! 🚀

Just kicked off coding with #windsurf and #cascade, wiring up an MCP server to connect to a #Postgres DB. Building a #GoLang microservice skeleton to fetch a paginated list of devices—auth checks via my custom auth service before querying the device table. Let’s go! 🚀
