I think the hamster has a better chance in the microwave

Wait, cyber trucks hava a liver?

Micro services alone aren’t enough. You have to have proper observability and automation to be able to gracefully handle the loss of some functionality. Microservice architecture isn’t a silver bullet, but one piece of the puzzle to reliable highly available applications that can handle faults well

You aren’t wrong… But everything with extended use needs to be maintainable. Making a change in 5 places sucks.

Plus, that’s what open-closed principle is all about. Instead of adding additional functionality to current working code, you extend and modify.

The thing to think about is reusability. Are you copying and pasting code into multiple places? That’s a great candidate to become a class. If you have long lived projects (i.e. something you will use multiple times over a lot of years) maintainability is important. Huge functions and monolithic applications are very hard to maintain over time.

Break your functionality out into small chunks (methods and classes). Keep it simple. It may take a while to get used to this, but your time for adding additional functionality will be greatly improved in the long run.

A lot of great programmers were terrible at one time. Don’t let your current lack of knowledge of principles stop you from learning. One of the biggest breakthroughs I had as a programmer is changing how I looked at architecting applications. Following SOLID principles will assist a lot in that. Don’t try to understand and use these principles all at once, take your time. Programming isn’t what you make your living with, it’s a tool to help you be more efficient in your current role.

Realize that becoming a more effective programmer is different for everyone. Like you, I was self taught. I was a systems and network engineer that decided to move into software development. I’ve since moved into a role that takes advantage of all the skills I’ve learned through the years in SRE. like you, a lot of what I write now is about automation and analysis.

So cute. He looks a lot like the old guy I lost last year.

Thank you for sharing, it made me smile

Dotnet core 3.x exists

Dotnet core 4 never existed because they wanted to make it the mainline dotnet… That means framework is retired and everything is now the slimmer multiplatform runtime.

It does look a lot like a Muppet.

Is 24/7 the newest version from Microsoft?

Docker is just a lightweight container that has the app and OS all in one package. It uses the underlying kernel of the host system. No where near the same as electron apps.

Sweet Baby Ray’s?

I hated this guy when he was just a grifter back in the '80s

Uh oh…

They took my face… OFF!

No way, they can’t give up on bing. They do that and all we have is Google for searches. We need the competition. For MSN, it’s all about content now, I kinda like that branding… It makes it easier to see that I don’t want to see it.

Itunes, Amazon music, tidal, YouTube music. It’s not a monopoly yet. Hopefully we can get a few more services, but I don’t see anything competing with this group.

Diversity. MS had made great strides with EdgeHTML, but it was still pretty bad

But at least opening the browser didn’t take all my ram.

This feels weird to say… I really think Microsoft should’ve stuck with trident / edgehtml.
