Offline Sandwich

Distractions are bad. Distractions make you dumber. Eliminating distractions is impossible. We can try to contain them instead of eliminating them. Offline sandwich is a way to structure your workday in a way that you put distractions into their boxes, thus giving yourself a good piece of quality time.

Using Snapchat for project-related communication

Does it sound serious? It’s that super silly messenger app used mostly by teens, isn’t it? Doesn’t the pic say it all? We like experimenting, so we tried to use Snapchat for a part of project related communication for a couple weeks now. What I can tell so far is…

Single Threaded Development

I’m currently trying to evaluate an idea — let’s call it Single Threaded Development, where a single team would always work only on one ticket at most at any given moment. …

Remote work and divorces

Recently I stumbled upon an interesting article titled “Good marriage has to fall apart” (unfortunately only available in polish). The author tries to analyse what’s the cause behind the increasing rate of divorces in Poland. After a closer look at the divorce statistics and what they really mean, the author…

Perfectionism and decision making

TL;DR: perfect solution often does not exist, don’t waste time looking for one. I’m a perfectionist. Sounds good, but the fact is it doesn’t help at all in getting stuff done. Actually, it seems to me that today it’s more likely to stumble upon this term in negative context. You’ve…

Simple async queue and code enmity

I’m recently coding some node.js for fun and at some point I happened to need a simple command queue to process some requests without interrupting each other. Nothing extraordinary.

Git for longtime Mercurial users

TL;DR: Git’s and Mercurial’s vocabularies have a lot of false friends. When learning Git I wish I could forget everything I know about Mercurial, even though they’re so similar (especially in comparison to other VCS’es). Really. Learning Git would be much easier then. That’s because most of the resources on…

Do you braindump?

TL;DR: Braindumping is as essential as breathing, but I haven’t figured it out yet. When I’m working on a project, I often have a simple text file called “todos” around. I put there stuff that should be revisited later or some ideas worth exploring, et al. Understandable enough. …

ES2017 async/await to the rescue!

TL;DR TL;DR: Do yourself a favor — try using async/await and indent less! Setup is easy enough. TL;DR: ES2017 async/await is THE solution for “callback hell” (ie. async flow control and error handling). Soon you’ll be able to use it without transpilation in modern browsers. In the meantime either transpile…
