Backend developer hanging out with the Frontend team.

Content ?php header ("Content-type: texthtml; charsetutf-8"); This is a warning to any poor soul who may have to deal with this code. I took over this criminal piece of chaos from a monkey named Joel who I assume had been given a typewriter by Mephistopheles himself. For reasons I have yet been unable to fathom, he decided to patch together this thing using a BaseX setup hardwired into an unfixably broken Manjaro VM, queried by a handwritten plate of uncommented PHP spaghetti fit to feed an army of people with a serious death wish, without any framework or CMS. The very long BaseX script, very long PHP presenter and very long XSLT stylesheet mostly perform the same heuristic document structuring for different components and are supposed to produce compatible results, but I bet they have mismatches somewhere. Since Prof. T just wanted a few small functional enhancements, I decided to just patch it and keep the general setup. Unless you were hired to correct some spelling mistakes, DO NOT FOLLOW IN MY STEPS. Putting up with this simulation of how a goldfish would design a system has literally given me CLINICAL DEPRESSION. This is not an exaggeration, I am writing this after a prolonged medical therapy - mostly successful, thanks for asking, but not fun. I wouldn't wish this code on anybody who isn't a manager at Oracle or Facebook, and therefore give you this sincere advice: Nuke this. Take the XSLT if you must, and then nuke the app and recreate it in Django or whatever works for you. I would do it myself, but I risked a relapse simply by opening this file again to write this comment. Dear brother or sister, I wish you all the luck and strength in the world and hope it will be enough.

Content Programming in high school and college: I can write a function to check if a number is a palindrome, a "Dog" class that overrides methods of the "Animal" class, and a dictionary that receives the real name of a superhero as key and returns their secret identity.

Content Giulio Carrara Engineering Manager at Abstract Dear recruiters, if you are looking for: - Java, Python, PHP - React, Angular - PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB - AWS, S3, EC2, ECS, EKS - nix system administration - Git and CI with TDD - Docker, Kubernetes That's not a Full Stack Developer. That's an entire IT department. Yours truly

The corporate sleight-of-hand that birthed the "full-stack developer" job title in one brutal meme. Instead of hiring separate frontend and backend specialists, some genius in management realized they could just make one person do both jobs while keeping the salary exactly the same. It's the tech industry's equivalent of saying "would you like fries with that?" except the fries are an entire second profession you're now responsible for. And the worst part? We all nodded along and added "full-stack" to our LinkedIn profiles like it was some kind of promotion.

The most accurate regex tutorial ever created. Step 1: Open your editor. Step 2: Let your cat walk across the keyboard. Congratulations, you've just created a pattern that's equally as comprehensible as one you would have written yourself after 3 hours of trying. The best part? Both will somehow match email addresses from 1997 but fail on anything sent after 2015. Your cat might actually be better at this than you are.
