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.

I'm reading this article on "Two factions of cpp", and while C++ isn't my primary language, I very strongly resonate with this particular snippet:

You’ll notice that the main difference isn’t about C++ itself at all. The difference is tooling and the ability to build from versioned source in any clean, well-defined manner. Ideally, even the ability to deploy without needing to remember that one flag or environment variable the previous guy usually set to keep everything from imploding.

Product, baby. Product will get you your salary. And when you sell a product to the customer, you don't expect them to have to assemble half of it themselves, if they're supposed to be doing anything useful with it.

And even you-six-months-from-now yourself is one customer.

"He’s not on the radio
No records, tapes, CDs.
He broadcasts on the Internet
It’s all done digitally"

The fediverse denizen, digital busker @dgar, appearing in my yearly music recap. I knew I liked your music, I didn't know I'm a real fan :)

Ah, fuck it, I predict my bluesky experiment will fail. It's not that it's too bad or something, it's just that I would need to invest a lot to clean up my timeline.

Like, my "home" timeline is like any of "the algorithm". Half the people spewing about politics, another half about how bluesky is better then twitter. I guess I would need to severely purge the follow lists or I don't know what., but I suspect I'll be lazy for it.
