New dev managers: help your team master the foundations.

Dependency Injection

Repository

Lead by example. Set the standard.

️ AI can shave off hours writing boilerplate, but is your delivery really faster? Low‑quality code takes 2.24× longer to maintain.

You ship quickly today but spend twice the time fixing and refactoring tomorrow. That backlog grows fast.

Balance speed with checks: integrate AI suggestions into your CI pipeline so you catch regressions early. Keep your velocity without sacrificing stability.

Just started using an AI coding assistant? Amazing! But beware: even AI-generated code can carry hidden “debt.”

Studies show low‑quality code has 15× more bugs. If you blindly accept AI suggestions, you could be building future headaches.

Action tip: Always run an automated quality scan (SonarQube, CodeScene) on AI‑authored code. Catch issues before they slow you down!

Favour composition over inheritance. Instead of deep class hierarchies, build objects by combining smaller, focused components. Easier to test, modify, and reason about. #DesignPatterns #CleanCode

The Single Responsibility Principle isn't just about classes - apply it to functions, modules, and even variables. Each should have one clear reason to change. Makes debugging and testing much easier. #CleanCode

A code review full of sarcasm and vague critiques is like giving someone a broken compass and saying “you’ll figure it out.”

Clarity > cleverness.

If you want better code, offer better feedback. Precision, kindness, and context go further than snark ever will.

Preprocessor directives can do a lot more for your C# projects — especially when you want to conditionally compile code for different environments, platforms, or configurations.

Have you used preprocessor directives in a clever way? Drop your favourite use case below

DDD for PHP, the silent revolution.

Entities > Arrays
Domain services > Spaghetti code
Shared language = fewer bugs

Could business-aligned code be your next power move?

Puntos clave para ser un buen profesional en el mundo del desarrollo de software.

Uno de los que destacaría del artículo es el de aprender a decir "no". No solo nos va a beneficiar profesionalmente, sino también en el ámbito personal.

They say learning by example is the best way to learn. I'd like to share one such example of API design process based on a recent discussion with one of my colleagues: https://medium.com/@nerudaj/a-case-study-on-api-design-f22a8665cf2d

If you follow my #TuesdayCodingTips, this showcases a practical application of many of them.

And if you dislike clean code for whatever reason, this article is an example of how to overengineer your code in three simple steps I guess :D

I started to read #CleanCode again after years, in the first chapter there is a quote that said something like "Clean Code is written by people who cares"

then I think about the code written by #ai or these #LLM stuff, and I re understand why programmers could hate the current results of these ai stuff
