just now (510+ words) Three days before a customer pilot, our PM pinged me: "Can we ship that analytics dashboard?" The design had been sitting in Figma for weeks. I promised I'd have it in production by Friday with AI co-pilot. By Wednesday morning, the PR was still in draft. Not because the UI was hard'it looked exactly like the mock'but because the AI kept inventing work. Here's what a typical week produced: Four days. Four completely different approaches. The code worked, technically. But maintaining it? Good luck. The root cause became obvious: AI doesn't read documentation the way humans do. It pattern-matches. And if your codebase doesn't have clear patterns to match, AI will invent its own'differently every time. After months of trial and error, here's what actually works. AI writes strange things when fetch logic, loading UI, and display live in the…...

20+ min ago (740+ words) The Nop platform provides MyBatis-like dynamic SQL management capabilities, but its features are far richer and more powerful than MyBatis. At the same time, its implementation is actually simpler'based on NopORM, implementing SqlLibManager requires just a little over 300 lines of code. Use the @SqlLibMapper annotation to specify the associated sql-lib.xml file. Frameworks like JPA and MyBatisPlus have largely moved away from XML and rely entirely on Java annotations for configuration. This has led many to believe that XML is completely outdated, and some strongly oppose any framework that uses XML. This is actually a stereotype and a misconception. Using XML files has many advantages over annotations. All model files in the Nop platform support dynamic loading. As long as you modify a model file or any of its dependencies, the model parsing cache updates automatically. This makes debugging far more…...

39+ min ago (253+ words) In the previous part, we established that Babel is the "Translator." Now, let's see how this translator handles difficult situations in a real project. Many developers configure Aliases, run the app, and it works perfectly, but VS Code is covered in red errors. Or vice versa: VS Code is happy, but the app crashes. Why? Because this is the "Triangle of Synchronization." For an Alias (e.g., @components/Button) to work smoothly, three giant systems must shake hands: The Trap Many people forget the extensions array. If you don't declare .ts or .tsx here, Babel sometimes won't know to apply the Alias to your TypeScript files, leading to random "Module not found" errors. Sync with tsconfig.json (Mandatory) Babel modifies the code underneath, but VS Code doesn't know that. You must "declare" it again to TypeScript: A good developer is always obsessed…...

48+ min ago (287+ words) I built this because my food kept getting cold. Most days I'd sit down with lunch, open a video site "just to find one thing to watch, and then somehow I'd spend 1520 minutes just scrolling. No video, food already not warm anymore, and my break was kind of gone. At some point I got annoyed enough that I opened my editor and started hacking. I ended up with this: No login, no feed, no "here's 100 recommendations you didn't ask for. When I'm eating, I don't really want to choose. I just want one decent video that fits how I feel right now. So I started tagging stuff like: Whenever I watched something good, I'd drop it into my list and give it a mood. Break Picks is basically just a UI on top of that habit. Everything is curated manually....

54+ min ago (237+ words) Every morning, I would face the same ritual: I was losing 1.5-2 hours daily to infrastructure issues. That's when I decided enough was enough. My initial approach was naive: "Let's just fix the port conflicts." Lesson learned: You can't solve systemic problems with band-aid solutions. I spent days studying reverse proxy solutions: I chose Traefik for its Docker-native approach and automatic service discovery. Result: Complete failure. Services couldn't communicate, and I broke my existing setup. After days of debugging, I realized the core issue: I wasn't thinking in Docker networks. Key breakthrough: Creating the network as external and having services join it, rather than defining it inline. With Traefik in place, I could finally run multiple environments simultaneously: Each environment had its own subdomain, no port conflicts, and complete isolation. My old structure was a mess of Git submodules: I evaluated…...
