It’s been almost two months that I got a Mac for my work. Some things are great, like battery, display and build quality. But some of the things I still can’t accept. For instance, I had to to basic calculations and wanted to have multiole calculator app instances. Guess what, there’s no easy way to get that. After sesrching the web I found out I need a terminal for that. Why? I don’t know, t...

There was a project I was working on where management wanted us to track every piece of work in Jira. I want to share my experience about this. In one of my previous jobs there was a new project being started. It was actually a rebuild of the current product, so company and employees knew exactly what to build, but this time smarter and better. They had good people, good vision and openness to...

I’m not a fan of having manual releases and possibilities of human errors. That’s why I always look at the opportunities to automate the process. Recently, I had to implement a breaking change in a product for my client. This change would be effective from a specific date and client asked me about how we should do the switch.
