If one of my posts helped you, consider buying me a coffee:)
My preferred technology stack in professional context:
- Python as primary language (backend), Django as web framework
- Javascript + jQuery, SCSS (preferably with Bootstrap), HTML5 for frontend
- Docker and docker compose (yes, for development environment too)
- Postgres as SQL DBMS, Redis for NoSQL, ElasticSearch
- Sublime Text with numerous plugins to put all these together
mypy
, pytest
, flake8
,pre-commit
for code quality
- Github as VCS provider and CI/CD pipelines host
- AWS Lambda and Step Functions (and many more for logs, configuration, etc. ...) for good cloud experience in deployment
Hobby interests:
- Web3 and blockchain (Bitcoin, VeChain, Monero and USDT - as money, Ethereum, Polygon and Solana - to run smart contracts)
- Climbing
- Molecular biology
Things I wish I never had to work with (and hope to never touch again):
- Typescript - thank you for absolutely inadequate type system which completely disagrees with type theory principles (bivariant functions by default, really, really? Decorator cannot alter type of decorated method? Is it a joke? Or perhaps the language authors like callable type syntax if it is nested enough? KMP)
- Mysql and its forks - I really want to have native array fields and
RETURNING ...
queries
- Windows as dev environment - I need lots of configuration/customization capabilities which windows does not provide; use terminal on daily basis in my work and hate doing anything complex not through commands or config files; want to have enough control over installed software and system architecture
