Я не OpenSource разработчик, но за пару десятков лет написал под сотню enterprise-level библиотек, которые остаются в рабочем контуре, дорабатываются под каждый проект и адаптируются к новым технологиям. Большого смысла выходить в OSS не было, кроме как для упрощения обучения коллег и единого места хранения документации.Но и желание помогать другим и делиться выстраданными подходами, экспертизой и конкретным кодом мне не чуждо - сегодня поможешь ты, завтра - тебе.

Несколько лет назад я запустил проект по долгосрочному хранению продуктов. Это моя первая статья на Хабре. В ней я не буду рассказывать о своём продукте, она будет посвящена задаче, которую я решал, и как инженерные принципы сформировали моё решение. Статья, как я смею рассчитывать, будет интересна тем, кто задумывался о теме автономности, пробовал искать точки отказа в своём сложившемся образе жизни или для тех, чьи мысли об автономности все еще...

Как фулстек разработчику, мне доводилось работать с проектами на совершенно разных технологиях. Как правило, нужно было поправить небольшой баг или сделать небольшую фичу. Для задач такого разряда стек технологий обычно не имеет значения: отладка примерно одинаковая что на JavaScript, что на Haskell, Go или Python.Написать немного кода мне, в общем-то, никогда не было сложно на любом языке, с которым я работал.Но вот что всегда было настоящей проблемой — это запустить...
