For a project, we needed an OCR solution that could automatically read PDF invoices. Our first implementation with Tesseract.js on a Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB) was functional but painfully slow: 56 seconds per document. [...]
A topic that's been on my mind for a while: How do you actually separate presentation from logic in SolidJS? [...]
Have you ever had to give a spontaneous presentation but had no idea about the topic? [...]
Sometimes, things just seem cursed. You buy yourself a new gadget with all the excitement in the world—like I did with the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W. This tiny technological marvel was supposed to spark a new project, something cool to tinker with. The plan: quickly flash the Raspberry OS Lite onto an SD card using the official Raspberry Pi Imager and get started. That was the idea, at least. [...]
This week I received my second certificate from the Linux Foundation [...]
When moving further up the testing pyramid, you come across contract or service tests. This type of test ensures that the frontend continues to work with the backend or related services after changes or a deployment. [...]
Every time I meet someone who says they work in an agile team using Scrum, I ask about Planning 2. [...]
The last article of 2021 showed how to build a simple and small REST API with Koa. I will use this backend today to connect the address book application to it. [...]
Almost everyone has participated in a job interview at some point. Those who have had the chance to sit on the other side of the table will appreciate the following tips. Many of us are thrown into this role by our boss, who comes around the corner and asks us to join in on an interview – perhaps even without HR and without the boss. Of course, you assume that your work experience is enough to conduct a technical interview – at least that's what you think. But then the chaos begins. Based on my experience, I’ve compiled some tips to help avoid this chaos. These tips will ensure that both the candidate and you, as the interviewer, leave the conversation feeling good. My focus is on the technical interview, not the HR interview. Ideally, it’s a conversation between peers (software developers). [...]
One of the many ways to store data in a Flutter app is SQLite. SQLite offers a relational database within the app without external dependencies or internet traffic. [...]
This week, I stumbled over the spread operator and wanted to share my experience. [...]
In recent years, I’ve gained a wealth of experience from well over a hundred job interviews, whether as a candidate or as a technical expert. I’ve distilled this experience into the following points, which can make any interview more successful. [...]
If you want to display content in the list of all posts, 11ty only allows you to show the entire post content by default. However, if you want to display just the first sentence of a post, you’ll need to teach Eleventy’s JavaScript how to do that. [...]
For a long time, I had the idea of setting up a blog. I decided to use the implementation of this project as my first blog post. [...]
