Second post in the series on writing a technical book.

This one is about writing metrics: how fast you really write, and how long you can write well.

Thinking Beyond Syntax: The Art of Code YouTube video by Manning Publications

Thinking Beyond Syntax: The Art of Code — AI can generate code, but humans give it intent, taste, and meaning.

Behind every line of code, there’s more than logic.
There’s judgment, creativity… and a bit of craft ✨

1️⃣ Go just a little further than expected ✨
Not too far, because deadlines still exist—but enough. A clearer name, a stronger test, a small refactor, a thoughtful question. These small extras accumulate, quietly raise the quality bar, and naturally push you to keep improving.

2️⃣ Learn continuously and step outside your comfort zone 🌱
Progress rarely happens where things are easy. Growth lives in that narrow space where you’re slightly challenged—but not overwhelmed.

3️⃣ Master the command line 💻
Many tools expose their full power through the command line, and in some environments, it’s the only option. Knowing how to work from the terminal helps you debug faster, understand what really happens under the hood, and stay effective in any context.

4️⃣Manage your time⏱️
Quality matters but so do constraints. Being professional means delivering the best possible solution within the time you’re given. In the real world, quality and timely delivery go hand in hand, and professional judgment is about finding the right balance, not chasing perfection.

The Art of Code - Sandrine Banas Software development is an inherently creative activity that takes technical skill as well as artistry and craftsmanship. This unique book shows you how to improve the performance of your applications...

5️⃣ Practice problem solving 💡
At its core, programming is about problem solving. The creative dimension of problem solving and how it shapes the way we write and design code is something I explore in depth in the 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘈𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘊𝘰𝘥𝘦 📘

Over the years, through projects, teams, and many conversations with developers, I’ve noticed something: great developers are not defined by talent alone, but by the habits they build and practice over time.
Here are five habits that consistently make a difference for me.👇

Carte mentale résumant la vidéo sur l'impact de l'IA sur l'apprentissage

Sympa la vidéo "𝑳𝒂 𝑭𝒂𝒃𝒓𝒊𝒒𝒖𝒆 𝒂̀ 𝑰𝒅𝒊𝒐𝒕𝒔" de #Micode sur les dangers de l' #IA sur le cerveau.

Il faut apprendre à utiliser les #LLMs correctement pour qu'ils nous permettent de progresser, pas pour nous remplacer et nous rendre plus bêtes que nous le sommes déjà !

Many developers say working with #AI is incredible and makes them code faster. I am working with AI too, so let me share my process:
1️⃣ Ask the AI how it would do it
2️⃣ Disagree completely
3️⃣ Close the prompt
4️⃣ Do it my own way

Chronological timeline of past 50 innovations trying to replace developers with more advanced tools. Since Apollo, came COBOL, CASE tools, Visual Basic, low/no code tools, and now the promise with AI.

The 50-year quest to replace developers

❌ 1970: COBOL
❌ 1980: CASE tools
❌ 1990: Visual Basic
❌ 2000: Low/No-Code
❓ 2020: #AI

Result? We need more skilled developers than ever.
Blocker isn't the code; it's the complexity. 🧑‍💻💡

Ravie d’annoncer que je participerai à @mixitconf.org 🎉
Merci💙au comité de sélection d’avoir choisi mon talk
Il était une fois le code : du Clean Code au Narrative Code
Hâte de partager et d’échanger autour du craft et de la qualité du code.
