Ask HN: How to learn software development concepts crucial for senior roles?

Hacker News - Fri, 11/15/2024 - 2:19am

Hi HN, I'm working at an early stage startup, and want to learn about concepts and patterns that are crucial for senior roles, like: - Batch Processing - Messaging Queues - Microservices - Design Patterns - Which techniques to apply while working on a task - Properly debugging

Is there any online resource or somewhere I can see this in practice? Or any newsletter, youtube channel that discusses this in detail?

My go to sources are open source repositories where I try to understand the code bases and some PRs. But I feel overwhelmed with the resources.

Ask HN: Where do you go to find good articles to read?

Hacker News - Fri, 11/15/2024 - 1:46am

I used to find great links to great articles (be it tech, economics, and so on) on Twitter (when it was boring). But it's all politics now. HN was also a good source but IDK, less so.

Where do you go to read new stuff?

Ask HN: What's your terminal and shell setup?

Hacker News - Fri, 11/15/2024 - 1:38am

Currently using Terminator when on Ubuntu and iTerm2 on my macbook. Always with zsh + oh-my-zsh plus a handful of plugins and aliases.

Curious to know what the real terminal and shell wizards are up to.

Lately shell interactions have felt very slow and archaic without some kind of AI assistance now that I've become so used to having it when coding with Copilot. I've seen and tried some of the available AI shell tools but haven't liked any yet. Just typing command descriptions and waiting for the AI generated command doesn't feel like the right model. Literally just using copilot in a context where I could execute its output would probably be a better experience. If I remember correctly, when playing with Emacs there was one of the terminal options where the output and command line were in a single buffer and hitting enter on the last line would execute the command there. So I'm thinking that if there's a copilot plugin for Emacs and that terminal option, then combining the two might be pretty nice.
