"Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it." - Brian Kernighan ★ 35 Git tip: Create a `.gitmessage` template file and set it with `git config commit.template ~/.gitmessage`. Consistent commit messages improve team communication and project history. #Git ★ 5 Homelab tip: Set up Prometheus with node_exporter on all machines. Monitor CPU, memory, disk, and network.

Mnemonic: # comes before % on the keyboard. #Linux #SystemAdministratio… ★ 7 Apply the DRY principle carefully - Don't Repeat Yourself, but don't abstract too early. Three instances of similar code might warrant abstraction, but two might just be coincidence. Premature abstraction creates complexity. #SoftwareEngin… ★ 4 Database queries in loops are performance killers. Load all needed data in one query, then process it in memory. One query fetching 1000 records beats 100 queries fetching ten records each by far. #SoftwareEngineering ★ 32 ⭐️ Interesting project: https://github.com/kddnewton/psych-pure A YAML parser written in Ruby ⭐️ Interesting project: https://github.com/steveclarke/real-world-rails 200+ production open source Rails apps & engines in one repo.
