I hit a point recently where my wrists were screaming at me after long coding sessions, so I started looking for alternatives. That’s when I tried Ito😍, an open-source tool that lets me talk through code or notes and then instantly cleans it up. Highlight a function, say “add comments” or “convert to TypeScript,” and it drops the result right back. It’s been a surprising boost — less fatigue, and my ideas flow more naturally, almost like rubber-duck debugging but with actual output. Has anyone else played around with voice + AI in their workflow?

Hey PapaFam i noticed something - clerk in development was faster but moment i changed from dev to prod observed some performance issues has anyone noticed this before or maybe its just me thinking its slow, you might try to sign up here and check if this is something okay. https://www.lystica.cloud/sign-up

Hello PAPA FAM, I'm currently looking for a reliable open-source tool for both Static Application Security Testing (SAST) and Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST). I would really appreciate any recommendations or insights based on your experience. The goal is to finalize a tool that’s effective, well-maintained, and ideally easy to integrate into CI/CD pipelines. If you've used any open-source SAST/DAST tools that worked well for you, please share your thoughts — pros, cons, or any lessons learned. Thanks in advance for your help!

Let’s be real—most software engineers are low-key just surviving the code jungle. We follow tutorials, paste in snippets, see it run, and call it a day. Everything works. Life is good. But here’s the twist: working code doesn’t always mean understood code. And that’s where the "Zoobie Coder" comes in. Note author of the book programmer brain Felienne Herman confirm this in one of the podcast she was interviewed What’s a Zoobie Coder? A Zoobie Coder is someone who codes on autopilot. You use the tools. You build the features. But you don’t really understand the inner workings. You just go with the flow—because it works. There’s no pause to explore why something works, or how it could break. And it’s not because you’re lazy—it’s because most learning environments are built for speed, not depth. The Escape Route? Start Teaching. Now imagine this: someone asks you to teach a class on how to clone Amazon—not just build it, but explain every step. Suddenly, the game changes. It’s no longer about “just getting it to work.” Now you’re thinking, “Wait, how does this routing setup actually function?” “Why did we choose this API call pattern?” “What would break if I changed this logic?” That’s the shift from Zoobie Mode to Deep Learning Mode. Because when you’re learning to teach, your brain operates on a whole new level. In both episode 1,2 and 4 of React entrepreneur and every challenges done by @Sonny Sangha and @Jay Rathod they preach this concept of teaching. in case you forget anytime @Sonny Sangha mentioned Jimmy just just know it time 😊 Why Teaching Forces Real Understanding When you're building to use, you aim for speed. When you're building to teach, you aim for clarity. You slow down. You ask better questions. You start caring about structure, naming, flow, and edge cases. And ironically, you end up learning faster—because you're no longer skipping over things you “don’t need right now.”

What if I told you that your skills evolve just like species? In 1809, Jean-Baptiste Lamarck introduced the Theory of Use and Disuse. He believed: > “The more you use a body part, the stronger it becomes. The less you use it, the weaker it gets — and eventually, it disappears.” Sounds ancient? Maybe. But let’s bring it to this era— as developers. --- The Developer's Version of Lamarckism - Use a language daily — it becomes second nature. - Ignore a framework too long— you forget syntax, patterns, even the ecosystem. - Stretch your skills— and you grow more efficient, faster, smarter. That’s code evolution --- Examples: - Haven’t touched React in months? Feels like foreign syntax. - Practice TypeScript every day? You think in types. - Never used Git branching seriously? You'll panic in a rebase. The tools you use evolve. The tools you disuse, dissolve. --- But Unlike Lamarck’s Theory… Your IDE doesn’t forget — you do Muscle memory isn’t just for athletes — it’s for coders too. > The brain is your strongest development environment. Keep compiling new habits. --- HERE is the twist Die” Doesn’t Mean Forever Gone Now, when we say a skill "dies," we don’t mean it’s erased forever. You can dust it off — but it takes serious effort. That’s why Donald Knuth created Literate Programming— writing code as if explaining it to your future self, so he could remember what he built, even years later. Because even legends forget. There’s always hope — when the Avatar returns --- Call to Action papafam: - Refactor something old today. - Try that scary tech stack this week. - Push one commit that makes future you proud. Because in this game, skills you don’t use… die But with intention, they can be reborn No wonder those who decided to do and teach coding always operate in different level and end up becoming a leader If you still doubt me the papafam is your answer Peace ✌️
