Voici le 21รจme numรฉro de ma lettre de veille, la Craft Letter : https://www.craftletter.fr/lettre-ndeg21-27-avril-2026.html

J'y aborde la gรฉnรฉration de cartes, une migration sans interruption de service qui divise par 6 la facture d'hรฉbergement, un Ruby plus performant, le numรฉrique responsable ร  l'รฉchelle, les nouveautรฉs de Git, un podcast de chercheurs en informatique, Async/Await, les lois de l'ingรฉnรฉrie logicielle, la gestion de la dette technique...

Bonne lecture !

Massive love out to @kentbeck . You are an inspiration and so much of what I believe about #programming comes from your work.

Sauf que รงa se fait en รฉquipe. Parce qu'on bosse en extreme programming. Qui implique une responsabilitรฉ partagรฉe du code. Du travail en รฉquipe (mob programming). Et รงa met plusieurs cerveaux sur un mรชme sujet (souvent un sujet un peu gros). Bref, cette mรฉthode de crรฉation de schรฉma a toujours รฉtรฉ ma mรฉthode pour mieux apprรฉhender les choses, ce que j'apprends. Mais lร , j'en ai pris mon parti et le fais pour en faire profiter tout le monde sans exception.

Je conseille de pratiquer cette mรฉthode, c'est vraiment utile pour embarquer tout le monde et les tirer vers le haut :)

Pull requests: quality theater with questionable results โ€” ottorask.com

Does your organization prefer or maybe even force pull requests for reviewing and validating changes before integrating to a mainline? I have news for you: youโ€™re engaged in quality theater and the only thing the PRs are doing for you is add cognitive load and delays while preventing you from finding better ways to ensure youโ€™re shipping a quality product without delays.

On ๐…๐ซ๐ข๐๐š๐ฒ, ๐Œ๐š๐ซ๐œ๐ก 27, Iโ€™ll be presenting "๐ž๐—๐ญ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐ž ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐š๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐  โ€“ ๐“๐ก๐ž ๐Š๐ง๐จ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ž๐๐ ๐ž ๐–๐ž ๐‹๐จ๐ฌ๐ญโ€ at ๐๐ž๐ฏ๐‚๐จ๐ง๐Ÿ 2026.
