Nothing beats the ChatGPT we all have inside. Been long hours writing and as soon as I focused I stopped using the 'machine'. And since I did I found my own voice and ideas and words just flow, in a way nobody could have put it better.
Seriously, the same with writing code: we're the originals.

Connecting @hono.dev to your MCP server just got a lot smoother ✨
You can run this on @cloudflare.social, Bun, Deno, basically all the places where hono can run!

I'm writing an internal document inspired by a lot of things #DDD and EDA
when it came to explaining Aggregates it all lost clarity and linearity... you don't say...
so I coined the new term Cohesive Unit of State (CUS) that has a lifecycle, invariants, and ensure transactional consistency

I read on the plane Specifications by Example and had the chance to immediately put in to practice some principle at a meeting with clients. My new golden rule is "derive scope from business goals", works like a charm. Requirements just DISAPPEAR simply by asking "and why do we need that?"

Do LLMs help with Legacy Code? This is an interesting problem for the pattern recognition machines. They work like your mobile keyboard, but on steroids. They continuously suggest the next most likely word, based on what happened before. Recognised patterns will be repeated.

and for the (functional) #typescript #DDD -ers, a tip: when modelling types we're faced with a choice: use typescript and lose the types at runtime, or use schemas like in zod and keep them at runtime but polluting the code with a dependency and making it harder to read and write

another question for the #DDD -ers: does it ever happen in your projects that the domain layer gets bypassed by later developers (with transaction scripts) because they have no idea what's inside and how it works and why? How to reduce the chance of this happening?

for the #DDD -ers and #TeamTopologies -ers out there, do you ever structure your delivery team in a "domain" team (working on the domain model and the domain layer) and a separate "app dev" team (bringing the domain layer further attaching it to an application and infra layer)?

Just attended a 2-days @eventstorming.bsky.social Masterclass with @ziobrando.bsky.social in Berlin, so humbling and so much learning!!
Maybe my fave takeaway (as a perfectionist) is the value of wrong models and the importance to put it out there asap, as you can never fix what doesn't exist yet

I find it very fascinating and scary how software is becoming so urgently political. For some time "agility" thought society to deal with complexity and emergence, a lesson never fully learned. But now tech promises tools for predictively governing complex systems, and we've gone full circle.
