"Now we have AI, do we still need to hire experienced developers?"

With modern tools everyone can "code". Within the right context, that's perfectly fine. Outside that context, it's a risk.

Beyond architecture, the programming paradigm we choose shapes how easily we can write, maintain, and evolve code.

In the article, I share a simple, rule-based framework we use to blend paradigms for creating code that’s easy for humans to understand and maintain, yet ready for AI support.
From OOP to OOPS: Escaping the One-Paradigm Trap
Programming paradigms aren’t silver bullets. So, how to pick the right one? You simply don’t.

Just released the next "Getting started with Jitar" video 🥳

In this video, we show how to scale a full-stack application using nothing but configuration, thanks to Jitar’s services. Scaling your app has never been this simple.

@petermasking.bsky.social and I are creating a new version of our #jitar introduction video.

It's fully generated from Google Slides with a few #python scripts that transforms the slides into an animation and add a voice-over using #ai

This is what we have so far...

Yesterday, @basmasking.bsky.social and I returned from the What The Stack Conference (@wts.rocks) in Skopje, carrying home great memories and new connections. 🙏

The audience was full of energy, which made it a real pleasure to speak to them, even right after a fantastic lunch!

I love abstractions, but I also fear them. Good ones reduce complexity, while bad ones add it.

Telling them apart isn’t always easy, so avoidance is the widely accepted guideline.

Since I couldn’t find a practical, unified source, I decided to create one.

Today in the airport bus I shot this picture for @kevlin.bsky.social day. A few days late, but still worth it in my opinion.
