Blog

I’ve always enjoyed using my blog as a side project to experiment with different technologies, explore ideas, and share my learnings as I build products and tools as a software engineer. Now, it’s time to roll out a new version.

Solving programming challenges is something I'm passionate about: on one hand, it requires understanding the basics of programming, having a deep knowledge of how computers work, knowing about complexity orders and the "Big O" notation, and on the other hand, having some ingenuity and creativity.

I have been using and testing different AI programming assistants for a while now, and I love them. The only thing that concerns me is that misconfiguration could lead to credentials being sent over the network.

Working with images has always seemed like a fascinating topic to me for several reasons: it's visual, it's an optimization challenge, you work with matrices... Specifically, I was drawn to an algorithm to summarize the colors of an image and extract the most important ones: color quantization using an octree.

Node is one of the most practical runtimes available today, and I often use it for certain tasks (alongside Python or Go for others). In general, I enjoy working with TypeScript because having a type system helps me structure the code better, in addition to helping you see where changes impact.

There are different work environments (development, staging, production) with automatic deployment processes (CI/CD) on platforms like GitLab or GitHub. But do you really need all this?

After several years of working with Kubernetes, I sometimes wonder if it is better to work with virtual machines instead. In this article, I'll share my experience and the advantages and disadvantages of each option.

This week I've been working with Kafka, and since it's new to me, I want to deep study the most important concepts and share these fundamental ideas with you. It's important to note that although I’m sharing key ideas here, to learn how to use Kafka, I recommend two things: first, create a test environment to understand and reinforce your knowledge, and second, deepen some concepts by reading books.

Deploying a project may seem complicated, but it's actually the easiest and most fun part. Professionally, I manage infrastructure, so I want to show you what options exist and why choosing a VPS is the best.
