For centuries, members of the B’doul Bedouin tribe lived in the caves around the ancient city of Petra, Jordan. Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists. But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved? SHOW NOTES: Meet The Man Living in The Lost City Carved in Stone Jordan: Petra's tourism authority cracks down on Bedouin cave dwellers The tribes paying the brutal price of conservation “There is no future for Umm Sayhoun” Jordan’s Young Bedouins Are Documenting Their Traditions on TikTok Check out Sami's company Jordan Inspiration Tours Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices…

This week: Essential integrations / services / API' s

We are going to be talking through the main / really popular API partners out there and give some quick feedback on how to integrate/go about them. Plus some lessons learned to keep in mind when planning integrations like this.

Sendgrid + Other Transactional Email

John: Formatting emails — inline styles only.

John: Some services have "Templates" with "Placeholders", some you pass the full HTML

John: Having some kind fo "log" object in your own domain can be very helpful.

John: Priority on background jobs for timely emails —

JP: Iterable. Opendoor uses this tool to send text, email, and push notifications. Everything hinges around handlebars / mustache and OOF - inline styles

JP: Side project with send grid, just a list of template ids

await deliverTemplateEmail({ to: user.emailAddress, templateId: SOME_TEMPLATE_ID, data: { contactFirstName: user.firstName, viewMyAccountLink: ${config.BASE_URL}/user/dashboard, }, });

Stripe + Other Payment Providers

John: Tokenization and data storage
John: Drop in vs Whitelabel — "Checkout" vs "Elements"
John: Embrace Test Mode in Stipe (Super powerful)
John: Subscriptions, Promocodes + More
JP: I actually don't have much to say about payment providers. The interesting thing is that in Opendoor world, we hand off our users to an operator. I.e. you wouldn't purchase a home a la Amazon

Twilio (SMS)

John: STOP replies edge case
John: Logs are helpful
John: Twilio Webhooks
John: Testing mocks is really useful
JP: Seriously, twilio powers the world. We've used tools that hook into Twilio that provide an interface for customer support. See Front App

Scheduler / Chron Jobs

John: Heroku Scheduler
John: Think about failure handling, resend logic into scheudulers

OAuth Login?

Other?

Picks

John: Sweet Maria's Green Coffee Beans and Roasting Guides
JP: None!

Welcome to Iteration, a podcast about programming, development, and design. John Intro — My name is John and I am a software developer for a home services startup. JP Intro — Hi, I'm JP and I am a software developer. What makes a good 1:1 (IC perspective)? JP a manager who listens JP clear action items for problems What makes a good 1:1 (Manager perspective)? John When reports are honest about motivations (I want more money, etc) John Clear feedback about my management What makes a bad 1:1? JP when 1:1s just become another medium for standup updates JP when 1:1s become a way for your manager to micromanage Format What do you talk about? Basic framework John follows: private running doc between manager and report, either party can always add to it, reviewed on a regular cadence. I've found every 2 weeks to be really effective. This meeting is for building trust, context, sharing progress on goals, professional development things like that. Principles / concepts Focus on the report — 1:1's are primarily for the report, the employee, not for the manager or the company. 70/30 — Manager should be 70% listening less than 30% talking. Honesty — be direct. Forbidden conversations. Objective — Do the work to find objective examples, provide numbers and letter grades. Flexible — Don't overthink or over structure, let it flow, let report guide conversation Moneyball firing clip Picks John: https://www.chia.net/ JP: Tailwind is coming out with official React support!…

Welcome to Iteration, a podcast about programming, development, and design John has been asked: When I perform a google search, what happens? Be as specific and accurate as possible including every layer of technology. Can you tell me what Indexes are and what they do? What is CORS? Questions JP has been asked: What is the difference between something like SQL and Mongo - what are the trade offs? How does the JS bridge work in React Native? Describe what Redux is for and how you'd implement it in a React project Maybe some from our own? If you could add one feature or change to the Rails framework what would it be? How do feel about testing? How do you think about testing? When does it make sense to write tests? If I have a really huge model, let's say 500+ lines, how would you go about refactoring it?

The SPA Episode (Single Page Apps) 1:02:03

cách đây 4 years trước1:02:03

John: Welcome to Iteration, a podcast about programming, development, and design. John Intro — My name is John and I am a software developer for a home services startup. JP Intro — Hi, I'm JP and I am a software developer at a small analytics startup https://macwright.com/2020/05/10/spa-fatigue.html Topics / Guiding Questions What's a SPA? From the article The main UI is built & updated in JavaScript using React or something similar. The backend is an API that that application makes requests against. The more techincal one: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/SPA An SPA (Single-page application) is a web app implementation that loads only a single web document, and then updates the body content of that single document via JavaScript APIs such as [XMLHttpRequest]() and Fetch when different content is to be shown. This therefore allows users to use websites without loading whole new pages from the server, which can result in performance gains and a more dynamic experience, with some tradeoff disadvantages such as SEO, more effort required to maintain state, implement navigation, and do meaningful performance monitoring. Why do developers choose SPAs? Do end-users care about SPAs? What SPAs have you worked on / maintained? 0 — When should you reach for a SPA? That's the right use case: Desktop app to the web. Spotify, Figma, photopea.com Breaks REST might be a good time to consider Community What's wrong with this SPA's? Increased complexity — Development and deployment Often times: 2 repositories, 2 languages or frameworks (Rails + Vue) (Node + Angular) (Rails + React) SEO + Speed — Have to do "Server Side Rendering" This reminds me of the light switches for "Smart" light bulbs. You've increased the complexity by a factor of 10 to get the exact same results. Maintainability? Stability? If not a SPA then what? (Is this a different Episode?) What's good about server rendered? How much you get for free Async fetching State management URL's just work Strong Conventions Stable minimal maintenance What's bad about Server Rendered? Page Reload Can feel clunky Less Reactive Mobile App — Now what? SPA lays a stronger groundwork What's good about SPA's Benefits are for the user Developer Ego's Data foundations Breaks CRUD Community Pushing technology forward is a good thing. What's bad about SPA's How much of a pain in the ass it is to Manage URL's Complexity — Front end + Back end Authentication Image Upload Multiple API endpoints for a single page State is way harder in a SPA Debugging Closing Thoughts SPA's are great when you are breaking "REST / CRUD" SPA's are great when you need multiple consumers of the same data This is highly personal, you gotta go with what you love. WiFi Picks John — Distraction Free Phone from the book Make Time Mobile: Uninstall all "Infinity Pools" put "Parental controls" on for the rest. 3.5 hours down to 1 hour screen time. So much time back. Switched out twitter for Kindle. Other tip: Instagram Threads — only the shit you care about with no ads Desktop: https://selfcontrolapp.com/ — JP - https://railsnew.io/…

Low Code / No Code ✨ 42:42

cách đây 5 years trước42:42

JP: Welcome to Iteration, a podcast about programming, development, and design. JP Intro — Hi, I'm JP and I am a software engineer at an analytics startup. Today, I am joined by John: John Intro — My name is John and I am a software developer based in Los Angeles CA Today's topic The "Codeless" movement, otherwise known as "Low Code / No Code" Said another way: Is Bubble and GPT-3 coming to take all of our jobs? We aren't talking about "Serverless" (Ex: Firebase / Aws Amplify / Parse) — Could be a good future episode. NOT tools like Auth0 or Twillio This is a "Full Stack" — No code app development framework in the cloud. WYSIWYG for "Apps" This isn't software! Popular Codeless tools Full "App" Development https://bubble.io/ (Most Powerful, widely used) https://www.appsheet.com/ https://www.glideapps.com/ https://thunkable.com/ Internal Tool replacements — Kind of mini-modern salesforce or filemaker clones Airtable Retool Smartsheet Notion Quickbase Domain Specific Codeless Shopify ← eCommerce Sharetribe ← Build a Marketplace App Substack ← Paid Newsletters Mighty Networks ← Paid Communities Podia ← Sell online courses So so many more Upsides of Low Code Low Code / No Code is an incredible tool for going from 0-1. All Notes Downsides of Low Code Low Code / No Code is most ideal for basic CRUD or internal simpler tools. Reading, updating and managing listings of data. Or — Very Domain specific (Shopify for eCommerce) It can be very hard to maintain, since you don't "own" your stack. Very very expensive to scale (Still cheaper than a team of Devs) Tons and tons of gotchas John's Opinion: Prototype + Build V1 of everything you can with no-code or off the shelf systems. Get things in customers hands. Biggest Issue — Low Code doesn't fix the Hard Part of Software Notes Other thoughts regarding of Low code Non tech sees code as "Barrier" not "Force Multiplier" Often times the time saved is actually due to the compromises made with a low-code / no code tool. Examples of compromises include: Recommendations for Using Low Code Tools Accept the limitations Spending too much time trying to solve for nit-picky edge-cases is likely to be a time suck here. Low-code / no-code will likely have rough edges and performance issues. Just embrace the hackyness. Don't ignore best practices of user interviews, research and domain design. Just because your not "coding" doesn't mean you shouldn't do your homework and have confidence before building. It's very easy to waste time building the wrong thing. Think about the data and lock in Where does data live? Is it secure? is it backed up? Is it in a silo? Can it be migrated / exported?

Onboarding into a new codebase 👋 32:30

cách đây 5 years trước32:30

32:30

Today's topic: Onboarding into a new codebase As a new hire / contractor for a freelance project From JP: Reviewing other people's PRs on a new codebase Submitting your first PR Understanding how data flows through the app I've found that the organization of the code and the quality of abstractions makes or breaks this point Ramping up complexity of feature stories that you can tackle. How do you get there? From John: First — Understand the domain, talk with team, read books, use competitor software, language in that domain. Then — Understand the software Read the Docs, all that you can get your hands on Review closed issues / tickets, try to understand the language /culture of the team Review the tests, this is a good place to start if there is any, especially integration or feature tests that are higher level Find the "God" objects if you can. Write docs as you go, great way to get it into your head Onboarding someone else onto a new codebase From JP Hiring contractors for a project Onboarding new hires Reviewing new hires' pull requests **it's own episode maybe? Code Review?** How do you onboard someone else? I think domain context is important From John Support the advise given above! It's just the reverse First: Domain Context Then — Provide Docs Tests Simple first issue Pair on the onboarding Dev's first PR VS sink or swim Try to demonstrate what tools and process you use in a project Picks JP: https://apps.apple.com/de/app/meeter-fast-call-initiation/id1510445899?l=en&mt=12 John: Rails View Components It's a new pattern in rails to produce reusable front end "Partials" but more abstracted and re-usable. This pattern plus stimulus.js is really magic.…
