Scala’s Types of Types
This blog post came into being after a few discussions about Types in Scala after some of JavaOne’s parties in 2013. After those discussions I figured that many questions are often repeated by different people, during their learning of Scala. I though that we didn’t have a full list of all tricks what we can to with…

Ditching tmux
This week I started an experiment. I wanted to know whether I would be able to completely ditch tmux. Don’t get me wrong here, I absolutely love how tmux makes terminal multiplexing transparent for me. I’m also very used to <C-b>c, <C-b>1-0 and so on. I also have a custom set of keymaps and plugins I use frequently…

Frameworks Don't Make Much Sense
Frameworks are one of the hugest anti-patterns in software development. They're hard to learn. They limit your creativity. They increase your project's complexity and dependencies. They go out of business and get abandoned. You have to maintain and upgrade your code to match the latest framework versions for no good...
