I've just discovered another fancy concept (again) for object-oriented programming: Object Calisthenics!
And then I am so happy that I can just rely on functions and immutable data to write sustainable and boring code.

It would be foolish for a company to choose GitHub over GitLab.
There are so many missing features that will wrongly shape your organization.

Technical debt's a bitch.
Any architecture shortcut lurks patiently in the shadows, waiting to bit or kill you later at the worst possible time.
It's okay to have it temporarily, but it has to shine so brightly that it reminds you every moment that it's there.

Mise is such an awesome and underrated tool.
I use it as:
- makefile
- global and local tool manager (node, dotnet, rust, github releases, etc)
- env vars and secrets manager

They are both so good! I couldn't wait and I've been testing them for 5 days already on my personal PC.
Definitely adopted!
Cosmic is still in beta but almost perfect in tiling mode. I'm looking forward to testing the final version.

Once system76.com/cosmic desktop is ready, I think I'll switch to using it at work.

Effect.gen is very similar to F#'s Computation Expression.
It's a real pleasure to use, even if I miss F# so much.
I think I'll heavily use it with Drizzle and other I/O operations.
