I'm Markus. I enjoy programming and software development. Occasionally I write something, or work on a piece of open-source software.

I don’t have any good resources to share. But what I do is to enable error notifications for all my systems. If there is a unhandled exception, I get an e-mail and slack notification (this includes forwarding errors from the front-end). That and to log any situation in the code that should not be reached.

This works fairly good for errors, for misbehaviour or to spot missing opportunities it is blind though.

We have this culture at work where people actually takes time to read and feedback on your blog posts (you post it in the chat and at least a few picks it up). This helps a lot, getting (somewhat) honest feedback. I also use LLM for spotting grammar and spelling mistakes, and have started to use it to find reasoning flaws, which is does pretty good.

Outside of colleagues and machines, I find it quite hard to get feedback. I have a shot-box and my email on ever page, asking for comments, but rarely receive any. Maybe it is just that I don't have enough readers? =)

> Now most people don't write code.

I use LLM daily to write code for and "with" me, I also write code without LLM. Most people I come across mix it up. A few do it all by hand, and equally few all by LLM I would say. Is that just in my corner of the world?

Not related to the post itself.

But oh my, I visited the index page, that is a provocative mouse-cursor effect! I kind of like it!

Yes. And (too) many people focus on the effort, or the LOC produced. Completely ignoring the value the thing produced actually brings.

I really enjoyed the documentary, and it certainly made me want to revisit Clojure!

I have started working on a standalone, self-hosted, service for an album club (music, that is).

Members takes turn pitching one album per week. Support comments and a handful of emoji-based reactions.

Integration with Spotify for easy pitching and playing (by links only, users are not required to have a Spotify account).

Plan is to keep the clubs fairly small and invite only.

Building it in Gleam which is a lot of fun!
