Hey friends,

I'm restarting my job search; I had an offer, but it fell through.

Remote US preferred, but hybrid Washington, DC works too. I have 17-ish YOE as a software engineer, and have worked on both frontend and backend, but I lean toward the backend.

#Elixir #Phoenix, #Python #Django, and #React are what I know best.

Hoping to #GetFediHired

Edit: adding my LinkedIn

Na svoje projekty hledam vyvojarskou pomoc (React + TypeScript) a rad dam prilezitost lidem pred prvni praci, kteri muzou benefitovat i z meho mentoringu.

Budu moc rad boostovani tu. Ale hlavne za osobni sireni mezi juniory a velka pomoc by bylo i sdileni na LinkedInu, kde je precijen vetsi sance, ze se nejake zacatecnictvo najde.

I don't get the hype around Next.js. How can this be the future? This is literally what we did in the early 2000s.

I'm definitely staying away from this.

#react #nextjs




As "#accessible" drag and drop (with accessible in quotes as I haven't personally verified the claims) is added to #React Aria and React Spectrum, I'm happy to see drag-and-drop get some #accessibility love at the framework level. However, I'm not convinced that aiming for parity always creates the most efficient, usable experiences in this area.

For many use cases, there are alternative approaches legitimately better suited to how people actually operate their devices, across various assistive technologies and input methods. For instance, dropdowns with type-ahead, offering more of an opportunity to browse before committing, rather than constantly navigating back and forth across drop zones which could be far apart.

The article highlights challenges in finding a preexisting holistic system, without delving into the possible reasons for that being the case until now. User feedback is also not a panacea; are you asking someone to evaluate whether they can use a thing? Or whether that thing is a good idea, and/or if a better thing could theoretically exist?

Under the hood:
✅ I replaced #PostgreSQL database storage by more suitable #ElasticSearch. It searches data faster and I have better control over results order
✅ I replaced #REST api by #GraphQL api for frontend - backend communication. This simplyfies a lot both the #React frontend and the #NextJs server implementations.



I recently wrote a #monitoring dashboard for myself, and figured I'll share the experience: asylum.madhouse-project.org/bl…

Code dump is at the bottom. The dashboard itself is a fairly straightforward #React app in truly awful JS. It's fed by #Riemann, which is itself fed by my own collector I wrote in #fennel.

The blog post isn't about the tools, but about the thought process that led me to have my dashboard look and function like it does. More monitoring stuff will follow, as time permits.
