@kentbeck.com is a legend in software engineering: and after coding for 52 years, he's never had more fun than now, he told me. Why? AI agents brought back the joy of creating software without the stuff that he's started to hate about coding.

APM... I miss New Relics APM, but it is not an option now. For reasons. Is there anything I can use that comes close? Maybe open source, but at least on-prem-ish-able?
Opentelemetry agent could come close, but the analysis/UI part of the equation seams weak. What is the best?

The most robust study I've yet seen on the impact of GenAI on dev productivity
- 4% increase in productivity
- Moderate GenAI users emerged as the highest overall performers
- most GenAI-authored code required significant rework

Kotlin development in VSCode? Anyone have a functional setup? Is it even possible? Everything I try just pales in comparison to IDEA.

Been kind of lost between all the networks for a while. But I guess this is where it's at now? Time to learn to use properly. 🙂
I'm doing #fullstack development, mostly with #Kotlin and hopefully #HTMX. Mentoring #TDD, #clean-architecture and #continuous-delivery. 👋

Started doing a webpage with HTMX and KTor back end. Ended up with... HTML... Not SPA, so things could be a tiny bit better. But we can live with that because of the speed we get. Low effort 100 on Lighthouse! We can always just add HTMX when we decide, not rewrite everything.

Just tested the new webapp on phone for the first time, and it worked! 📱😲 Just responsive by default! Wow! Simplifying with semantic HTML and CSS pays off. PicoCSS is really nice for creating a solid responsive design foundation. 👌 Check it out: https://picocss.com/

Minimalist and lightweight starter kit that prioritizes semantic syntax, making every HTML element responsive and elegant by default.
