Out tomorrow :)

The benefits of trailing commas (by @treyhunner):
Trailing commas in #Python simplify code changes and reduce errors.
When swapping or adding elements in multi-line data structures, trailing commas prevent syntax errors and make diffs easier to read.
They also help avoid implicit string concatenation, a common Python pitfall.

Tomorrow at the Solution2 conference, I’ll be giving a talk called 'Fast-Track Your Path to Senior C# Developer.'

A junior developer once asked me, 'People immediately treat you like a senior dev. They don’t treat me that way. How do I get there?'

That question has stuck with me ever since. Let’s talk about the answer.

I would implore you all to use ISO 8601 for dates (year-month-day, biggest to smallest)! I sent a message out to my team at my job about this before discovered that XKCD actually made a comic regarding this haha. My favorite feature is that it allows for “natural” (lexicographical) sorting so that you can just sort your files on your computer by name! It also plays nicely with file paths on operating systems since it does not use `/` to delineate year-month-day.

The ambiguity between month/day in many date systems really hurts my brain. I admit that I sometimes use the US-standard of month/day/year for those individuals whose brains are likely not ISO 8601 compliant.

Make a channel in your Slack called #one-liners

Paste any good #Bash you write into it (or anything where you're like "this works but there must be a better way)

Change the topic to "systems programming"

Enjoy!
