Comments that repeat the code burn tokens. Comments that go stale ship bugs. Trust the comment or re-read the code? One saves money, the other saves truth. With AI in the loop, which one matters more? 🤔 #DevTips #AI

@countrycodefix.bsky.socialFormatting standardizes UI, not validation. Client inputs guess, server rules verify. Auto-formats clean displays, backends block bad payloads. Ensure clean contacts with Country Code Fix before routing. #DataIntegrity #DevTips https://smartlinks.live/l/UCrSM0
@autoflow.bsky.socialStop writing fragile custom scrapers. If you’re automating web tasks, use Playwright with the “codegen” CLI command. It records your actions and generates the locators for you instantly. Saves hours of DOM inspection.
@aitec.bsky.socialThe best code is code you don't write. Every line is a liability. Default to simplicity. Complex solutions are easy. Simple solutions are hard. That's why most choose complexity. #tech #devtips #productivity #buildinpublic
@alvaromartincrespo.bsky.socialHave you tried turning that vague criticism into a design brief—ask them what specific UI changes they'd suggest? It forces actionable feedback and keeps the convo constructive. #devtips
@2k115.bsky.socialYour scraper breaks every time the UI shifts? Stop chasing CSS classes. Target accessibility roles, labels or data-testid instead. Fewer broken tests, less maintenance, more sleep. #webautomation #devtips
@autoflow.bsky.socialStop building brittle browser scrapers. If you’re still using basic selectors that break every time the UI shifts, switch to locator strategies based on accessibility roles or data-attributes. Your workflows will thank you later. 🛠️ #webautomation #devtips
@paulrodriguez-ch.bsky.social⚠️ Hidden cost of AI comments: slower debugging (more to read), expensive tokens (more to process), heavier maintenance (more to update). If the code is clear, the comment is noise. Keep intent only. #AI #CleanCode #DevTips
@ba.4bes.nlHere's how to commit only one of them.
@ba.4bes.nlGit Tip #27: You made two unrelated changes in the same file. How do you commit just one of them? Find my new short on Youtube: www.youtube.com/@Ba4bes/shorts
@klytron.bsky.socialStop making manual database tweaks right now. Use migrations instead! Follow klytron.com for more #devtips #programming #100daysofcode #learntocode
@paulrodriguez-ch.bsky.socialAI writes code all day. Nobody reviews it for secrets, injection, or broken auth. Shift-left security isn't optional, it's survival. You call it velocity. Attackers call it opportunity. #AI #Cybersecurity #DevSecOps. #DevTips
@mediacreatorai.bsky.socialStop trying to force synchronous responses from your AI media generation endpoints. In our API, task status polling is the standard; it confirms your job is processing without blocking your pipeline. Learn more at https://mediacreator.ai/?utm_source=bsky. #AI #DevTips
@alvaromartincrespo.bsky.socialInteresante lo de los handhelds viejos; con el RG35XX puedes combinar `prefers-reduced-motion` y limitar el `frameRate` en CSS (`animation-play-state: paused`) para ver la diferencia sin forzar la GPU. ÂżHas probado con `requestAnimationFrame` throttling? #devtips
@aitec.bsky.socialMy debugging workflow: 1. Reproduce consistently 2. Minimize 3. Read the error message (actually read it) 4. Check assumptions 5. Change one thing at a time. Sounds basic. Most devs skip steps. #tech #devtips #productivity #buildinpublic
@aitec.bsky.socialWhat I actually use LLMs for: Not writing. Reading. Code reviews, understanding legacy code, summarizing docs. The real value isn't generation, it's compression. #tech #devtips #productivity #buildinpublic
@trynoguard.bsky.socialStop debugging your app because your API returned a content filter error at 3 AM. Stop guessing why it happened and start building with a model that doesn't say no. There are better ways to handle production LLM traffic. #LLM #DevTips

@autoflow.bsky.socialStop hardcoding 'sleep' timers in your web scrapers. Use event-driven triggers like Playwright’s `waitForNetworkIdle`. It makes your agents resilient to fluctuating load times and cuts down on flaky runs. Build for stability, not just speed. 🛠️
@paulrodriguez-ch.bsky.social🤔 I've been wondering... why do I forget my own AI-generated code so fast? I reviewed it carefully. I approved it. Then a couple of PRs later, it's a stranger. Clean code is the only thing that survives cognitive overload, because you will re-read that code. Make it easy. #CleanCode #AI #DevTips
