    I Tried Linux Desktop for 2 Months...

    I ran Linux desktop as my daily driver for 2 months - dev, streaming, gaming. Here’s the straight rundown: what worked, what broke, and what I’d do differently if I tried again. --------------------------------------------------- 💻 Learn Frontend (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-frontend-developer-career-path-c0j?via=donthedeveloper ⚙️ Learn Backend (25% off): https://boot.dev/?promo=DONTHEDEVELOPER 🤖 Learn AI Engineering (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-ai-engineer-path-c02v?via=donthedeveloper 🐱 Learn NestJS (free) - https://scrimba.com/nestjs-c0n7djgjma?via=donthedeveloper 🧠 Advanced Coding (40% off) - https://app.codecrafters.io/join?via=donthedeveloper 👥 1 on 1 Mentorship - https://calendly.com/donthedeveloper/coaching 👁️‍🗨️ Join Discord - https://discord.gg/TpQe2k8Ab3 🐦 Follow on X - https://x.com/thedonofcode 👾 Follow on Twitch - https://twitch.tv/donthedeveloper Disclaimer: Some product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something I'll receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.

  5. The Forgotten Truth About Being a Developer

    The Forgotten Truth About Being a Developer

    The reality of being a dev is that you're capable of a future that goes way past the limits a company allows you to work within. Just in case devs forgot, I wanted to record this reminding them of that, and ultimately why I left the industry. --------------------------------------------------- 💻 Learn Frontend (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-frontend-developer-career-path-c0j?via=donthedeveloper ⚙️ Learn Backend (25% off): https://boot.dev/?promo=DONTHEDEVELOPER 🤖 Learn AI Engineering (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-ai-engineer-path-c02v?via=donthedeveloper 🐱 Learn NestJS (free) - https://scrimba.com/nestjs-c0n7djgjma?via=donthedeveloper 🧠 Advanced Coding (40% off) - https://app.codecrafters.io/join?via=donthedeveloper 👥 1 on 1 Mentorship - https://calendly.com/donthedeveloper/coaching 👁️‍🗨️ Join Discord - https://discord.gg/TpQe2k8Ab3 🐦 Follow on X - https://x.com/thedonofcode 👾 Follow on Twitch - https://twitch.tv/donthedeveloper Disclaimer: Some product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something I'll receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.

  6. I Tried Agentic Coding and I Hate It

    I Tried Agentic Coding and I Hate It

    Tried agentic coding while building a Twitch analytics feature for Twitch Sprout and... I hated it. It bloated the code, ignored library features, and turned me into a spec-writing code reviewer instead of a dev. I also shared where AI has helped as well. --------------------------------------------------- 💻 Learn Frontend (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-frontend-developer-career-path-c0j?via=donthedeveloper ⚙️ Learn Backend (25% off): https://boot.dev/?promo=DONTHEDEVELOPER 🤖 Learn AI Engineering (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-ai-engineer-path-c02v?via=donthedeveloper 🐱 Learn NestJS (free) - https://scrimba.com/nestjs-c0n7djgjma?via=donthedeveloper 🧠 Advanced Coding (40% off) - https://app.codecrafters.io/join?via=donthedeveloper 👥 1 on 1 Mentorship - https://calendly.com/donthedeveloper/coaching 👁️‍🗨️ Join Discord - https://discord.gg/TpQe2k8Ab3 🐦 Follow on X - https://x.com/thedonofcode 👾 Follow on Twitch - https://twitch.tv/donthedeveloper Disclaimer: Some product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something I'll receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.

  7. I'm Doubling Down on AI

    I'm Doubling Down on AI

    I’ve been skeptical of AI for a long time - tired of the hype, the slop, and the talk about replacing developers. But as a one-person business, I can’t ignore its potential. In this episode, I break down why I’m doubling down on AI for the next few months: testing its limits, exploring real use cases, and seeing if it actually makes my life easier… or if I’ll end up saying I was right to be skeptical all along.  --------------------------------------------------- 💻 Learn Frontend (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-frontend-developer-career-path-c0j?via=donthedeveloper ⚙️ Learn Backend (25% off): https://boot.dev/?promo=DONTHEDEVELOPER 🤖 Learn AI Engineering (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-ai-engineer-path-c02v?via=donthedeveloper 🐱 Learn NestJS (free) - https://scrimba.com/nestjs-c0n7djgjma?via=donthedeveloper 🧠 Advanced Coding (40% off) - https://app.codecrafters.io/join?via=donthedeveloper 👥 1 on 1 Mentorship - https://calendly.com/donthedeveloper/coaching 👁️‍🗨️ Join Discord - https://discord.gg/TpQe2k8Ab3 🐦 Follow on X - https://x.com/thedonofcode 👾 Follow on Twitch - https://twitch.tv/donthedeveloper Disclaimer: Some product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something I'll receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.
