About zlatko

Bio

According to some, I'm avant-garde ;)

I try to stick to software development and engineering topics, often related to application development, but I also shitpost random stuff, occassionally about photography, (usually not more then) react to politics or economics.

My website is https://zlatko.dev but I less completely-infrequently post a photo or two to my photo gallery https://photos.zlatko.dev.

I also used to post at https://pixelfed.social/zlatko, and https://programming.dev/u/zlatko, and I'll occassionally swipe here and there.

Hey people, did you know fediverse (at least, gotosocial) can encode html non-breaking spaces? Like, if you type in "wordother word", it'll collapse the spaces. If you type in a few consecutive nbsp's, it'll work.

  • that's &, followed by the r letters nbsp and ended with a ;
  • type it out, then copy-paste it several times after one another
  • xxx
  • profit!

Thank you *drops mic

P.S. feel free to reply to this toot to experiment and get it right.

Since I live in Munich, of course my kids are rooting for Germany. But since I'm not that attached yet, I'm hoping for at least one goal by Scotland, just so I "win" against the boys.

Nothing wrong with a little drama for them, it's their first cup they'll be following, they should learn why it's so crazy thing :)

About tests and testing in software Toggle visibility

Why should I write tests?

  • each time I am writing code, I'm taking a stable product. With, perhaps, known and unknown defects.
  • on that stable product, I'm introducing a change set
  • my job, as a product engineer, is to make sure that the end result is again at least a stable product (now v2), with lower or equal amount of defects.
  • therefore I also need to ensure that my change set is also long-term stable
