Hi 👋 and welcome to the usual end-of-year recap! Right before Christmas, I take some time to reflect on the year that has passed, and write some observations here on the blog (2022, 2023).

This time it’s not different, so let’s start!

Hi 👋 welcome to a new post.

Today, I want to share a small glimpse of my experience at the 2024 Polenta & Deploy event!

Polenta&Deploy is an event taking place nestled beneath the mountains at Pinzolo. Over the course of three days, developers (and others) come together to enjoy the fresh air and discuss about tech (and not only that…) in an open space setup.

(Disclaimer: I didn’t attend the previous editions, so please correct me if I’m mistaken)

Hi 👋 and welcome to the last post of 2023!

As already done last year, it’s time for a end-of-year recap!

I usually spend the last days of the year eating and laying on the couch (christmas is strong in italy) so don’t expect a long post.

Let’s begin!

2023 Goals Review

First, a short check on the goals I wrote in my 2022 review:

❓Learn in public

I definitely tried to expose myself a little more and share what I learned in public. Some examples are my blog posts on books I read (here, here and here), and the github repos for Advent Of Code and Coding Challenges.

Hi 👋 welcome to a new post. Today, I’m going to describe my experiences at the “Katurday” sessions held by the XPUG Bergamo group.

The events are called Katurday because we perform a kata on one Saturday morning every month. It’s a great way to code and learn with other people 😃.

What is a kata?
