Prøver meg på nytt jeg. Alternativ tittel: "Utviklermarkedet forbedret seg sammenlignet med resten av markedet med hele 2 prosentpoeng, sammenlignet med oktober 2024"

God tirsdags morgen? I et noe uvanlig grep slipper vi fersk episode i dag. Ikke fordi vi, som proffe podcastere, glemte å fullføre redigeringen i tide til mandag, neida. Uansett. Live fra TDC 2025! Her er kortslutningrådet med gjestene @frkfrontend.no og Vilde: shows.acast.com/kortslutning...

I samme anledning kan vi også annonsere at den andre gjesten blir Vilde Jølstad Paschen fra Visuelle Historier i NRK. Dermed har vi en komplett lagoppstilling med Elise (@frkfrontend.no), Vilde, Mikael og Stian. Vi gleder oss!

Planene for livepod på TDC (2025.trondheimdc.no) begynner å ta form: Vi kjører Kortslutningrådet! Vi åpner muligheten for at du får din utfordring løst av to erfarne og velartikulerte utviklerhoder, pluss Mikael og Stian. Send oss din utfordring til oss på forms.gle/DaJQCL9CAcwN...

Lunken (kom tross alt i går) episode finnes nå i din podcatcher of choice! Denne gangen om hvilken plass en LLM skal få i verktøykassa. Liten plass? Ingen plass? Usikkert. Men, en eller annen plass kommer teknologien til å lande når vi er ferdig med hypen. shows.acast.com/kortslutning...

Neste episode blir livepod fra TDC (2025.trondheimdc.no)! Vi gjør noe vi veldig sjeldent gjør (sist var på booster conf i 2022) og tar med oss noen gjester (blandt annet @frkfrontend.no). Akkurat hva vi skal prate om er usikkert, men noe blir det. Hvis du har noen drømmetemas, let us know!

Low key hot take that I kind of believe: Prettier is a bigger productivity boost than GenAI.

I am afraid the age of AI also speed as a service, where more and more AI base features are built in to services as a black box, and you have to pay high price for that feature to use faster models.

Like Marty himself, social coding is already fading.

This skeet is brought to you by waiting on Docker build Github Actions.

In my Don Quijote mind, the same people I've had to argue about frontend bundle sizes and TypeScript compile times over the years, is the ones being a big proponent of Docker and Rust.

I miss the days when Github was the "Social Coding" platform, not "the world’s most widely adopted AI-powered developer" platform.

Maybe Github should update their statistics to newer citations than 2024 in regards to productivity?

2025 Steve Ballmer would sound more like Tarzan than anything else. It's not developers, developers, developers. But aiaiaiai.

I remember being skeptical of Microsoft buying GitHub, but I have to admit they’ve done a lot of good things at GitHub. Easy to forget how stale GH was in the feature department for a good while before MS. Yet here I am, skeptical again. Guessing MS has been sous-vide-ing this frog.

Is there something like superlative fatigue? because I think I have it.

Some 20 years ago we got the WYSIWYG era of development. You could just point and click and create websites – no programming needed! (It seemed) Now we are in the WYGIWYG era with LLM based development. What you get, is what you get. Your systems dictate your requirements, by limitations.

Er det på tide å ta diskusjonen rundt anonymt kommentarsystem hos @kode24.no? Ulike meninger og perspektiver er gull verdt, men jeg syns oftere og oftere vi ser mer destruktive kommentarer som gjemmer seg bak det anonyme og tillater seg til å komme med usanne påstander.

Tar kortslutning aldri ferie, sier du? Joda, men det er opptak vettu. Og i denne ukas opptak driver vi seriøs forskning på den stereotypiske utvikleren: shows.acast.com/kortslutning...

Only use agent mode to generate larger features or solutions if you don’t care about the code. This may sound like a tongue-in-cheek comment, but it isn’t. There are many situations where the code, and its quality, aren’t important. But there are *more* times when you *should* care about the code

Alternativ tittel: "Gode nyheter for jobbsøkere: Langt flere jobber lyst ut i mai sammenlignet med mai 2024 – som er mer naturlig sammenligningsgrunnlag enn foregående måned da det er rart å tenke at utlysninger har vekst måned for måned og ikke være påvirket av sommerferier og slikt".

God mandags formiddag. Rykende fersk pod er levert til diverse innbokser. Denne gangen diskuterer vi KI, programmering og verden. Små temaer der altså. Sjekk det ut i din podcatcher of choice, eller på shows.acast.com/kortslutning...

🍝 Throwback to #Oredev2024! Mikael Brevik @mib.im ‬ served up a tasty talk: “Avoiding code spaghetti by making ravioli” How do you keep your codebase structured as it grows? Mikael had answers that future-you will thank you for! 🎥 youtu.be/MW-QCZ1p1d8 And yes… 2025 is still cooking 😏

How many here does actual strict red-green-refactor TDD and why are you lying about doing it?

I love dev quotes. And of course Rich Hickey is one of the best sources. Was just reminded of a good one: "Programmers know the benefits of everything and the trade-offs of nothing" 🤌🤌

experience is a dish best served cold

This alone is worth the $20/month price tag for Cursor.

I wish LLMs could handle all communication, requirement analysis, scoping, prioritization, user testing, organizational alignment, etc.. And leave all the naïve, faulty, happy-path programming to me.

I just found an actual use case for container queries. AMA

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world it could be statically rendered

Brukte 95 kroner på denne vitsen. Usikker på om det var verdt det for 7 likes på Bluesky.

Noe nytt på hjemmekontor24.no i dag da, mon tro? 🧐

I've found the perfect use case for the Cursor editor. All that technology so I can be lazy while writing commit messages

My most popular npm package, "node-notifier", has had 2,509,629,745 downloads since 2013. If I charged $0.01 for every download, I would have no downloads by now.

This is the content everyone needs

Continuing my quest of finally having actual valuable e2e tests on client side solutions: What is your go-to solution for awaiting requests as a consequence of pushing a button or link? Depending on case? Waiting for selector? networkidle?

Grab it while it's hot! New episode from @kortslutning.fun where we discuss statements from a developer after 6 years in the industry (in Norwegian).

i use hunter2 as password everywhere because reverse psychology

stop sleeping on stopping saying stop sleeping

Can’t wait to see my kids’ disbelief when I tell them that back in my day, we used to manually indent and format our code.

Oh yes! Works like a charm. Maybe not a critical feature, but makes Bluesky so much smoother to use.

I think code gets automatically more maintainable and navigable when following a simple principle: Optimize the code for deletion. I call this the Ravioli principle and is something I've been talking about at several conferences the last few months. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQas...

Let's look at Bluesky performance on Android! I managed to build a release build of the app and ran some traces, let's see what we can find... I have ~hour, will add to this thread as I investigate

There is some fantastic learning within these threads for everyone. Firstly just the openness in the approach to learning and sharing experience and reasoning around problems. But also the technical aspects of it. Speaking from personal experience, profiling React Native apps in Android is hard.

I have yet to successfully run a product with #nextjs + authjs + external API + Playwright E2E. Too flaky, too unreliable. This ends now, with my latest product. I am adamant about making this work and delivering actual value – not just symbolic. Give me your best tips!

For the curious, here is the total editing process for an episode of Kortslutning (podcast with me and @mollerse.bsky.social), from start to finish. Here using same bridge stinger between segments as previous episode. (Sped up 5x to make the video small enough for 🦋)

Having done the same podcast with @mollerse.bsky.social every 14 days for 6 years, editing requires very little effort. Which is nice. Then I can use more of the time playing with stems from songs for the bridges between segments.

It’s unfair how much easier it is to run e2e tests on dotnet api solutions with test containers compared to running e2e on client solutions.

Just released a new version of the Astro Bluesky content loader. This lets you load all of your posts (or anyone's) into Astro content collections at build time. - Create a local mirror of your posts - Generate a micro-blog from them - Something else I haven't thought of github.com/ascorbic/ast...

Social media platforms trying to get in position is the best. Open APIs like in the old days, rapid development, small communities, no overflood of dodgy ads. Lots of third party libraries and integrations exploring the space. Let’s hope this lasts for a while.
