Software Engineering Stories

Well, to be honest, a few of years ago I created this blog with one primary intention: web logging software engineering stories that were taking place on the field.   Being an active software engineer/programmer/developer or code monkey, I was always spending time to trivial things that would be executed, forgotten and at some point needed to be rediscovered (or even reinvented) again and again. Or sometimes to inefficient approaches that myself or fellow programmers were following for which, at some point, I found a faster, easier or simpler way of executing them. Ultimately this blog was supposed to start with documenting trivial day-to-day operational task optimizations, or hacks, and proceed to more abstract software design or architecture discussions. And then it was abandoned due to a number of reasons. But now I'm back and excited to add useful, up-to-date content of software engineering stories, tricks and even unconventional  ways to accomplish this. As technologies a
